The region still echoes its timber and sand‑mining past, yet hums now with boutique vineyards and wildlife draws. You’re a stone’s throw from Maru Koala & Animal Park in Grantville itself and the Koala Conservation Reserve over the bridge. Churchill Island’s historic plains and the nightly Penguin Parade lie just beyond.
If you're looking for wineries, Purple Hen Winery and Silverwaters Vineyard are a nearby drive. Experience coastal farmland shaped by nature and local life, with wildlife parks, wineries, and classic Gippsland scenery and personality.
