Reviews
"It took me about ten minutes to enjoy the view around the lake, yet I spent more than twenty minutes driving to the lake and another twenty driving back home. I just feel it’s not very worthy."
"A handy spot to stop and take a break on a long drive, toilets were clean and there was soap to wash hands. BBQ area too if you're keen..."
"An opportune rest area where you can get an impression of the vastness of lake George. On a clear day you will be able to view the wind turbines in the distance. Be aware: the highway onramp heading toward Canberra is only short and is also uphill so be prepared to accelerate quickly as you leave the carpark."
"There is one bbq table, smells bad( the smell of bird droppings on the table)but still nice place. Nice view point, especially before sunset. This is a good stop on the way from Canberra to Sydney."
"Actually, it's a nice clean lookout. A few of the lookouts in the ACT are very untidy, but this one (just over the border in NSW) was fantastic. Lovely view over Lake George. You can do a short drive down to the Lake George rest area (directly below the lookout) where there are also BBQ and toilet facilities."
