The amazing lodge – the finest natural surrounds.

Welcome to Blue Lake Lodge on Arthurs Lake in the beautiful highlands of central Tasmania. Blue Lake Lodge is a stunningly appointed lodge for trout fishing or just relaxing. It caters for six people in three rooms of modern, spacious luxury and is secluded on 200 acres overlooking the famous Arthurs Lake.

All rooms have uninterrupted views of the lake and free wireless internet access is available around the lodge. All rooms have reverse-cycle air-conditioning with separate bath and shower in each ensuite custom-made king-size beds in lovely Tasmanian timbers, electric blankets, beautiful linen and warm doonas.

The main lodge has a modern, fully contained kitchen, a large open fireplace together with a lounge and dining room also in Tasmanian timbers. An enormous sundeck overlooks the lake, making it the perfect place to enjoy coffee in the morning, read during the day, or simply relax in the evening.

The Lake teems with the tenacious Wild Brown Trout, and guided fly fishing at the lodge caters for both the experienced and novice fly fisher, either from the shore or from sport fishing boats.
