Travellers love Magdala Motor Lodge & Lakeside Restaurant for its warm, family-run hospitality, spotless and spacious rooms, and peaceful lakeside setting with ducks and birdlife. Many highlight the comfortable beds, strong heating, great showers, and handy in-room touches like a mini bar, microwave, toaster and kettle. The indoor saltwater pool is a standout, and families appreciate the kid-friendly vibe, playground, tennis court and the private lake with a jetty walk. Its a convenient base for the Grampians, Halls Gap and the Giant Koala, with plenty of guests calling it a relaxing home away from home.
The Lakeside Restaurant earns consistent praise for delicious meals and friendly service, with favourites including perfectly cooked barramundi, beef and Guinness pie, duck in apricot, quality steaks and pasta, plus a good wine list and room service. Several reviewers mentioned Robert for his genuine, above-and-beyond service. Overall, a welcoming spot with great food, tranquil views and thoughtful comforts that keep guests coming back.
