Accommodation Reviews

We held our wedding at Lake Breeze Wines in May 2026, and despite the rain, it could not have been a more beautiful and perfect day. From the very beginning, the team (Georgia and Ashleigh) were incredibly helpful, flexible and accommodating. Nothing ever felt stressful or pressured — the whole day was genuinely all about us. There was no bossiness, no unnecessary stress, just calm, relaxed support from an AMAZING team who clearly care about making your day special. The venue itself is absolutely stunning — gorgeous vines everywhere you look, beautiful fairy lights in the main room creating such a warm atmosphere, and incredible food that all our guests are still talking about. Even with wet weather, everything ran so smoothly because the staff handled everything so calmly and professionally. We honestly could not have asked for a better wedding venue or a more wonderful team. Thank you for making our day feel so effortless, relaxed and magical.

Ellis and Pete have created something unbelievable at Eight Acres. Our wedding there felt like the most genuine, fun, heartfelt wedding and I still cannot believe how perfect it was. I am forever grateful for every little detail they did for our wedding, they went over and beyond and it absolutely blew our expectations. We truely will forever hold the day/weekend as one of the best in our life’s.

Where do I even start. Eight Acres Lakes Entrance is genuinely one of a kind, and if you are even slightly considering it for your wedding, just book it. We had the whole property from Friday morning through to Sunday afternoon, and I can honestly say it was the most perfect weekend of my life. Not one thing went wrong. From getting ready, to welcome drinks by the fire pit, to the ceremony under the eucalyptus, right through to kick ons and a lazy recovery morning by the pool with our favourite people. It all flowed effortlessly. The venue itself is stunning. I wanted bushland and quiet, my husband is more coastal and Eight Acres met both requirements perfectly in a somehow non-competing way. Native bushland back drop with a pool surrounded by palm trees, fire pit areas with festoon lights strung overhead, we had quite a few kids and even that wasn't stressful! With a kids playground, giant lawn games, and farm animals to visit in the morning. It sounds like a lot, and it is, but it never felt chaotic. It felt like the most beautiful, relaxed version of a weekend away, except it happened to be our wedding. Ellis and Pete were absolutely unbelievable. From the moment we first reached out, they were easy to communicate with, experienced, supportive, and genuinely invested in bringing our vision to life. Nothing felt like too much to ask. They ran the weekend so smoothly behind the scenes that we never had to think about a single logistical detail. Because Eight Acres is BYO and DIY, we had complete freedom to choose our own suppliers, catering, drinks, and styling. The venue is a blank canvas but has SO MUCH natural beauty that you don't need to add too much either. It gave us the space to make the weekend entirely ours, without any of the stress that usually comes with that level of flexibility. Every single one of our guests travelled to be there. Not one person was local. When the invitations went out, the questions started, "Why Lakes Entrance?" We heard it more than once. And then people arrived. And every single one of them said the same thing: "Oh. I get it now." Not a single person has said it wasn't worth the trip. The cottages were comfortable and beautifully styled, the grounds were immaculate, and the whole property had this warm, unplugged energy that made everyone feel at ease from the moment they arrived. People did not want to leave. If you want a wedding that feels like more than just a day, that feels like a full weekend with the people you love in a genuinely beautiful place with a team who actually cares, Eight Acres is it. We would do it all again in a heartbeat. Ellis, Pete, and the whole Eight Acres team, you exceeded every expectation. Thank you.

Having a long weekend wedding at Eight Acres was incredible and would highly, highly recommend to anyone looking for a venue! The attention to detail from Ellis, Pete and the team is just amazing, nothing is too big or too small!! The little things like ensuring people making speeches had drinks for a toast and making sure the bride was fed was all attended to by Ellis as the on the day organiser, making everything just that bit more seamless and enjoyable. There are so many talented vendors in the area who Eight Acres work closely with which made organising our wedding quite simple. Could not recommend this place any higher to spend the weekend with your people. Thanks again Pete and Ellis, you certainly contributed to making this a wonderful experience!

We recently had our wedding at El Rancho and couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. The service was amazing from start to finish, the house and accommodation were spotless, and all of our guests absolutely loved the venue. The food was delicious and exactly what we wanted for our special day. What made it even better was having everything organised in one place — the wedding planner, venue, and accommodation all together made the whole process so easy and stress free. A special thank you to the hosts, Jenny and Andy, who were absolutely amazing. They were so helpful, always happy to assist with anything we needed, and are genuinely beautiful people who made the whole experience even more special. We highly recommend El Rancho to anyone planning a wedding. Thank you for making our day so perfect!
