Boasting an indoor swimming pool, Pedder Wilderness Lodge offers accommodation in Strathgordon. Guests can enjoy local Tasmanian food, wines and produce in the on-site restaurant.

The rooms were nice and clean, with a beautiful view of the river. The recreation center is well equipped. Kids had fun playing in the pool and playing on the courts. Lots of beautiful places to visit nearby including the Gordon Dam wall.

In the listing it seems as though you can hire kayaks from Pedder wilderness Lodge to access the lake, however it is only once you arrive that it becomes clear that the only way to access the lake is through a different company who do guided 3 hour tours at a whopping $150 pp. Very misleading and ridiculously expensive.
I've never paid $150 per night for a holiday experience anywhere else where as the paying customer I have been expected to remove the pool cover of a 30m lap pool by myself and then replace it when finished, or to disarm alarm systems and turn lights on for common areas such as the recreation centre where the pool was.
The location of this property is spectacular and the staff were lovely but I would probably not go back to this venue. The owners are lucky they have the only property "in town" because any competition would force them to close.
For the price of this property I expected more. Or at least what they advertise - live music, kayaks, board games that aren't broken, things for kids to do etc. But as is the case with most holiday venues in Tasmania - kids are never catered for properly, if at all.

The view and restaurant were the only good things about the place. Took hours to get there and totally disappointed. The standard room was not like the pictures and would recommend another type of room. The rooms are old, tiny and so close together you can hear every conversation in the rooms around you.

It is a tiny ex hydro village with the Lodge being the centre within easy access to major visitor sites. It was as I expected with not a lot to offer except better than average accommodation for this type of setting.

Unfortunately we couldn't get self contained accommodation which would have been much better 🌹Staff were amazing, restaurant meals great, water pressure out of this world, recreation facilities top class, walks, scenery and everything else makes me want to go back 👍

Great gateway to the wilderness.
Great gateway to the wilderness. Great walking tracks and views.
Bring your own snacks, food or drink as there is no shop around apart from the lodge restaurant.
Great place to enjoy the peace and nature.
