Edgewater Terraces is a magical spot to stay. It’s on the edge of Metung in a valley overlooking Chinaman’s Creek. We were there on Saturday (escaping from Melbourne) and watched 3 dolphins cruise down into Chinaman’s creek and then back out again – we were so close to them standing on Edgewater Terraces private jetty. It’s Victoria’s best kept secret!

Pristine country side with wonderful Gippsland Lakes views.Birdlife prolific ,THE ACCOMODATION IS STUNNING set in serene ,peaceful surrounds The management most helpful.Metung village is quaint with some good eateruies.
One of Australia’s most tranquil locations, overlooking the boats moored on Chinamans Creek. Once you share the the beauty and hospitality at Edgewater, it is almost impossible to holiday any where else. Thanks to hosts Sue & Bob!
This was just the best out of the way, relaxing holiday. Wonderful apartment, great setting, beautiful stroll into quaint little Metung – just magic. Recommend it to anyone wanting to get away from it all. Close drive to Lakes Entrance.
Loved our stay at Edgewater terraces in Metung. It was peaceful and beautiful. Had plenty of room for our holiday with the extended family.
A great place to enjoy with kids; Relaxing and simply superb
Fantastic place to stay with a group of friends. Great facilities that are well kept.
And a great place for a second honeymoon to celebrate our 60th Wedding Anniversary!
My kids and I stayed at Edgewater Terraces last summer with a girlfriend and her kids and we all had a great time! The villas were immaculate, beautiful and clean. The kids loved scootering along the boardwalk and playing in the pool. I would definitely recommend anyone who is going to the Gippsland Lakes to stay here!
First time in Metung, first time at Edgewater both great. Thanks Sue for telling us when the dolphins arrived in Chinamans Creek right under Edgewater’s jetty!!
My daughter and I live in different states (ACT & Vic) we meet in Metung, about half way. Metung and Edgewater provide everything we could wish for and Bob even lights the wood fire for us.
We holiday at Edgewater Terraces year after year it is always the tranquil, relaxing break we need.
The serenity! I had such a relaxing time here in Metung. It was a well deserved break at an ideal location. The accommodation was perfect. Plenty of room and really cosy. The views were very tranquil, I didn’t want the weekend to end!
My favourite getaway location, look forward to heading back at the end of the year.
A beautiful spot to stay and take in the scenery, feed the lovely lorikeets and rosellas and watch the boats go by.
Simply relaxing!
We have been visiting Metung regularly for over 30 years and have stayed at many of the resorts / motels. The best accomodation we have found so far is ‘Edgewater Terraces’ and Bob and Sue Jennion are the perfect hosts. The units are of high standard, comfortable with all amenities and always spotlessly clean. The location on Chinaman’s Creek is perfect, with a great jetty for fishing and a place to tie up our boat. Metung Villiage is a nice leisurely 20 minute walk along the foreshore boardwalk with lovely views of Bancroft Bay with its boats and water birds. Good meals and great coffee are to be had in Metung, truely a great break from the ‘hurly burly’ of city life.
We loved feeding and watching the lorikeets from our balcony. A great location and the perfect spot to re-charge.
My family has been holidaying in Metung for many years – lately we have been staying at Edgewater Terraces – a ‘home away from home’. All our needs are catered for even birdseed for us to feed the beautifull local birds. My young son enjoys playing with the other children in the resort especially at the pool and in the spa. This year we were able to fish from Edgewater’s new jetty and we always love walking along the boardwalk and spotting dophins in Bancroft Bay.
Gen and I had a really special time at Edgewater last November as part of our wedding celebrations over a weekend at Swan Reach and Metung. In fact, our wedding party (including overseas visitors) almost booked out Edgewater. Sue and Bob were great hosts; really flexible and accommodating. Our family and friends were happy with our choice of accomodation, and had a great stay!
A fantastic and special place to visit, much less honeymoon, with the lake vista, birdlife, walks to Metung, Season Restaurant, Metung Galley, etc – the list goes on and on.
The most recent tatoo on our daughter embodies the spirit of Edgewater and its surrounds, viz.:
Vive Con Pasion! (Live with Passion!)
More in a sublime way, though….
Great ambience, delightful hosts and out of the big smoke !!
Stayed twice this tear. Great location, modern and clean units and property.
The hosts were spot on. Highly recommended as a getaway from it all destination.
Edgewater Terraces is a beautiful relaxing location the accomodation is very comfortable, clean and well equipped, it is a very peacefull part of the Gipsland lakes, a great holiday destination any time of the year great for the fishing enthusiast.
What a wonderful place to stay!! EdgeWater terraces IS a home away from home, It is hard to find accommodation with all the perks. You have more than friendly hosts who can not do enough to make you and your family comfortable, always with a friendly smile and hello. The appartments are just wonderful with everything you could possibly need which makes your stay so much easier and comforting. The kids were so pleased with swimming pool and were even felt welcome enough to play in Sue and Bobs own back yard with their grandson. Now that for me is true hospitality! Good on you Sue and Bob, keep up the brilliant work!
A gorgeous part of the world – comfy accommodation nestled amongst the trees with serene views of the water, and a pool to boot!
Lovely and well equipped units but electronic and printed brochures give the impression you are right on waters edge; which is not totally accurate. Our recent visit was somewhat spoiled by major (and very noisy) maintenance works being carried out.
Great location, great accomodation, fantastic waterways & now with its own jetty and boat berths
A beautiful, relaxing location. Well-equipped apartments for a very comfortable break.
Theirs no place like home, except Edgewater Terraces. Sue & Bob are the perfect hosts for our annual holiday to Metung. Nothing is too much trouble, every detail taken care of and even when life throws a curve ball, they are their to help with a smile and hug.
My husband and I have been going to Edgewater Terraces for the past 9years,and will continue to do so, as we are extremely happy with the accomodation it is of a very high standard. The management are very pleasent and helpful to the needs of there guests.Metung is a very peaceful and tranguil place to stay.
A holiday at Edgewater Terraces in Metung is like my oasis in the desert. I “crashed” my parent’s annual visit there 3 years ago and I’m never going to let them go there alone again!!
A great location! We have been coming here for the last 6 years and wouldn’t consider any where else. The new private jetty compliments the magnificent outlook over the marina area that Edgewater overlooks.
Beautiful houses on the lake’s edge
Edgewater terraces is beautifully located in a very peaceful setting in the heart of the Gippsland lake (Meetung). Only a few minutes away from a beautiful waterfront broad walk to the village of Meetung. We have stayed a week with our 9 month old daughter and truly enjoyed the place which has all the facilities required for a family.
Excellent hospitality, great facilities, fabulous location, brilliant place to stay. Highly recommended. The place to stay in Metung.
It was a great experience in a wonderful location, edgewater terraces has lovely accomodation and I recommend it to couples and young families.
Beautiful views and a warm, friendly and relaxing place to escape the hustle and bustle of city life. A great place to stay and remember there is more to life than work and stress. Highly recommend
Had a great time staying here, very relaxing, went for a few friends of mine and came back very relaxed. will def get there again sometime in the near future
Wonderful place to stay. Quaint little town, great food. Relaxing complex with open fires and heated pool and spa. Not much more you could ask for.
Metung is one of Victoria’s best kept secrets and to add to your spectacular visit the picturesque Edgewater Terraces are the perfect place to stay. So comfortable, a very easy walk to town for a yummy breakfast or stroll, whilst eying off all the quaint boats and views. Everthing you need for a memorable relaxing stay and of course it is so easy to book through Racv. If you are looking for a hassle free getaway then Edgewater Terrace in Metung is your answer.
We were really impressed with Edgewater’s tranquil and relaxed setting. It offers a great range of modern accommodation with room to move. Located in a quiet valley it is well suited to romantic escapes or family holidays that everyone will remember. Unwind next to a cosy log fire or watch from your balcony as the distant yachts glide across beautiful Bancroft bay. We wandered along one of the best board walks in the Gippsland lakes to enjoy a great breakfast in nearby Metung village. Just like the pelicans – we will be back.
Had a great time while at edgewater terraces,i’ll be back for sure.Loved the area and if you ask the manager he will put you onto the best fishing spots!!
Edgewater Terraces is a magnificent peaceful place to stay. It is extremely clean with modern decor and furnishings and spacious with balconies upstairs and downstairs, just wonderful sitting out enjoying the early morning freshness and the balmy evenings.
A beautiful relaxing place to stay right on the waters edge. Kids loved the pool. The boardwalk into town is fantastic particularly for young kids on bikes. Great fishing & good place to bring the boat. Nicely tucked away from the hustle & bustle.
Hosts Sue & Bob are very hospitable & make you warmly welcome.
A peaceful setting, well appointed accommodation, breakfast on the balcony, a log fire, obliging hosts, a magical early morning walk along the boardwalk into Metung – and we’re about to return for the fourth consecutive year – say no more!
My wife and I had a great 3 nights at Edgewater Terraces of Metung. Only 3 hours drive from Melbourne, Tremendous views of Chinamens Creek and Bancroft bay, with a superb 15min stroll along the board walk into the village of Metung. Good fishing,golfing, walking and near by bike trails.Milder in the winter, cooler in the summer.Highly recommended, that was the third time we had stayed at Edgewater Terraces.

We had a fantastic time over the New Year. Our children enjoyed the facilities and we felt very welcome. The terraces were comfortable and ours even fit two families in. We loved the location, great for walking, fishing and boat hire. There was plenty for all to do, even the mums walked into town for a facial!
We have stayed at Edgewater Terraces twice this year and will be back for more. Wonderful accommodation in a beautiful tranquil part of the world with something for everyone. Everything you need and more with friendly and efficient service. Love the boardwalk to delightful Metung and so many attractions nearby to suit the whole family.
Stayed at Edgewater Terraces for a week and loved it. The pool and spa were great for the whole family. Lots of birds in the gumtrees around, very quiet and relaxing and a lovely board walk to Metung. We’re deffinately come back in summer for a swim in the lake.
Our stay at edgewater was great, Lovely warm fire, comfortable couches, everything we needed in the terrace and a very relaxing atmosphere. Will return.
Fantastic location right on the water with its own jetty for mooring and fishing. Nestled in a little gully with heaps of birdlife and wood fires for winter warmth. I was there last week and the pool is currently being upgraded, so will be fabulous for this summer as well.
On the water ways of the Gippsland Lakes.Quite and clean with a beuatiful 10 min walk along the Board walk to the Village..Just a great place to stay.And only a couple of hrs drive from Melbourne.Very nice place to stay for any occasion.With a pool for the kids and barbecue area and spa’s.
This is a beautiful tranquil place at the entrance to Metung. It overlooks chinamans creek and every morning we wok up to the sound of bellbirds interspersed with the tinkling of cables against masts of the yachts morred in front of the complex. Very comfy accommodation and spacious and clean. Wood fires gave it lots of ambience. A great place!
A great family holiday destination – the kids loved the pool and spa and we loved the walk along the boardwalk into the town of Metung. Great views. Great food. Great everything.
A tranquil, beautiful place to stay. Well maintained and friendly welcome.
A lovely spot to stay with great views. Even better now you have a boat mooring at your doorstep.
Victoria’s best place to stay is this place … the wood fires just make for a most relaxing and romantic getaway.
