George River Park is a self-catering, completely self-contained one bedroom unit with a separate entrance, fully-equipped kitchen and private bathroom and living area. The property sits on 100 acres of pristine pasture and bushland ready for you to enjoy. It is bounded by 1.6 mi of the George River. By day, relax on the completely private sandy beaches and refresh with a cool dip. You may spot a local platypus or hand feed the resident kangaroos, emu, white deer and other feathered friends. After dark, grab a torch and explore the property when possums, wallabies and owls are most active. The George River offers trout, blackfish and bream fishing and you can try your hand at fishing on the property's own private and secluded part of the river. A fishing license is required and can be obtained online or at Service Tasmania in Cecilia Street, St Helen’s. Explore some of Tasmania’s beautiful East Coast heritage areas such as The Bay of Fires, Wineglass Bay and the Freycinet Peninsula, the East Coast wineries, extensive hiking trails, waterfalls and the world-famous mountain biking tracks around St Helen’s and Derby. George’s Bay is known as the deep-sea fishing capital of Tasmania. Try an ocean charter or visit one of the local George’s Bay oyster farms or seafood restaurants.
