On the north side of the lake, this small reserve is not evident from the road, a gate on Langhorne Creek Rd about 15km from the Wellington Ferry, leads to a small track down to the reserve, it really isn’t much of a reserve, but migrating birds seem to use this spot as a launching pad to cross the lake. The Lignum can get really thick.

Camp rating 6 there is no established camp here and no facilities. There is no tutning circle for trailers.
