hopetoun Lake Lascelles Victoria

just a quick line guys to inform you all of a small town in the heart of the Mallee called Hopetoun that blew me away. To be honest i never had heard of the town before until i seen it on a tv show called Farmer Wants a Wife which had a young farmer on it from Hopetoun called Farmer Dev.
Whilst me and my family where in Mildura we thought we would tow our caravan south and pay this little town a visit. It is a small town that sits right on the edge of lake lascelles, which is ideal for fishing, swimming, skiing etc.... and right on the edge of the lake is a caravan park which only charges $15 dollars a night which also has fantastic facilities. It even boasts a spectacular retreat which is called "The mallee bush retreat" which has accommodation that suits the single person, family or large groups. And trust me the accommodation is much different to the usual accommodation we normally stay in.
We only planned on staying for 1 night but this ended up being a 5 night stay for me and the family.
I strongly encourage anyone looking for a quite beautiful lake to stay at that is surrounded by fantastic friendly people to give Hopetoun a go, its well worth the trip.
Just as we where leaving Lake corrong just out the back of lake lascelles was begining to fill from the recent victorian floods that have occurred.
PS we ventured up to the local pub on a friday night and the kids got a buzz in meeting farmer dev up the pub.
Enjoy your time Cheers
