Good bang for your buck. We brought some toys down to Collie- a ski boat and mountain bikes and we managed to keep ourselves entertained. We had two energetic teenage boys to keep busy and we managed to wear them out which is good. We went to Lake Kepawari twice, cycled 9.2 kms on one of the mountain bike tracks, did some bombies at Honeymoon pool, went down some rapids at one of the other spots in the national park and saw the mural on Wellington Dam wall. That was in 2 1/2 days and we still have heaps we missed out on. The Collie area is great as a base. The house was adequate for our needs- not fancy but good value. It was like staying at my Grans- very 1950's. We enjoyed our stay.
