There is now plenty of water in Deep Lake after years of drought, it has also been restocked with freshwater fish so there could be some good fishing and fresh BBQ’d fish for dinner if you have a current licence and throw in a line.
Boating is allowed on the lake so if you have a boat with you back it down the ramp and have a run out.
Plus for those on motor touring holidays there is a comfortable Hotel Motel in town offering good food and friendly service.
There are also good takeaway outlets in town providing plenty of variety in food.
