Had a lovely lunch today Chicken and bacon risotto. Was quite watery and a little overcooked but flavour was perfect. Good sized portion. Thanks for providing several gluten free meal options including ham/cheese/toastie from the café. Beautiful coffee. Staff were friendly and helpful. Food delivered quickly and hot.
Took their golf and stay package, with unlimited golf for $99 per person per night on a twin share basis. Exceptional value. The rooms are a little tired but perfectly clean, and the beds are very comfortable. We had 2 meals while on site - dinner and breakfast and both were excellent and affordable. The golf course was in good condition and we got to play both course which were relatively quiet. The staff in the pro shop were welcoming and helpful.
We spent the day in the sports bar area with a group of 6 that turned into 10-12 people. I have never come across the most rudest bar staff in a club environment. 2 older staff members were horrendous all day. When it came to putting bets on they were unhelpful and bluntly rude. Everything was an effort for them. I was getting other staff to put bets on without a ticket but when it came to the 2 older women I was told you have to fill out a ticket. I put mystery bets on in races in advance but if the 2 older women served me I was told no you get next race. These women need to go out to the Moama RSL and Moama Bowling club to learn how to be nice to your patrons. Once the younger staff came in later in the day they were amazing. To the rude, obnoxious older dark headed women clearly you don’t want to be there so DONT. Food was absolutely beautiful and staff in the restaurant were lovely but I am in no hurry to return to that club due solely to the rudeness of those 2 women.
I did a stay and play package with friends. The accommodation was comfortable. Both golf courses were in great condition with challenging layouts of bunkers and water. The cart hire I thought was overpriced, with the amount we paid in the package it could have been discounted or even included. The pro shop staff were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast vouchers were given to us but unfortunately the food was underwhelming, and delivered cold. The coffee however was hot. Some of the older staff members were very rude and made our stay unpleasant. They could take a few lessons in respect and customer service from the young ones working there. After we spoke to the duty manager Aaron,who was extremely helpful and sinsere, the food and service did improve. I would rate the golf courses a 4-star.
Well deserved accolades for a popular golf facility in Moama, NSW. The pro shop is well equipped. The fairways are sublime. Greens are fast and true. East course has more water to contend than West course. Many accommodation options on-site. The clubhouse is expansive and inviting. A betting area, as well as pokies.... for those who want a flutter. Nice casual seating. Main dining area is busy on weekends, suggest booking. Order food at kiosk, and then brought to table by pleasant staff. Cafe and barista areas. Very well run establishment. Strongly recommend.
Rich River Golf Course. This 36 hole golf / course resort . I found that overall the course is maintained to a very high standard. The greens are a reasonable size and challenging depending on where the holes are placed. The east course is still a challenging layout , and will test the good golfer. My favourite course personally is the old course, with large established red gums. The staff in the proshop are very nice, welcoming and friendly. The shop is also very well stocked with everything you need to go golfing. I highly recommend that if you are around Echuca or Moama, book in a round of golf there. ⛳️
Two great course. The west course was looking a bit tired in places. Fantastic greens. Definitely worth a trip. Food and service on the club left a fair bit to be desired.
Beautiful location with plenty to do. The mini golf course is very modern and well maintained. It had great lighting meaning it can be played after the sun goes down. It has very warm rooms and comfortable beds. The layout of the rooms are a bit unusual there was no TV in the bedroom and a bed in the kitchen/living room area. I guess this is handy if you are travelling with more than one person. The service received at the club was incredible. A friendly smiling face at the door to great you and ensure you follow the covid social distancing requirements. The food serving sizes were huge and the quality was amazing. I highly recommend the nachos, lamb shank and porterhouse steaks.

My partner and I booked daily wakeboard trips with Josh during our holidays in Echuca and Moama. We have been so happy with our experience! Josh is a very professional and safe instructor, with a great sense of humor. He has a great boat and a range of wakeboards and vests to suit anyone. We are both learning quickly and having lots of fun. Josh has a learning bar extension thingy on the boat and technology including headset/ mic in helmets so he can coach while youre learning. My tip.... book early so you get a good time because its very popular. Prices are really good value. Overall highly recommend! 🤗
We had a fantastic time on the stand up paddles boards. Price was very reasonable and communication was exceptional and Kim our instructor gave us some amazingly helpful tips being first timers. We were self guided and Kim was waiting for us at the other end. Such a great experience. Thanks Emu Outdoors.
Awesome morning SUPing along the Murray River. Josh knows his stuff, the equipment is good quality and you'll have a ball! Highly recommend as it's a wonderful way to really 'experience the river'. 👌🏞
Great experience. Josh is a great teacher and good with the kids. Highly recommended
Amazing service and tutorials. Great location too...definitely a must do when in the Echuca Moama area!!
Excellent, got my son up wakeboard first time Josh is a true legend
Very patient and knowledgeable. Highly recommend!

Cute little winery. Went here on a rainy day but still enjoyed our visit. The lady at the counter was so pleasant and we did not feel rushed at all. Loved their Shiraz Rose so much that we ended up buying two bottles along with 5 other bottles that we brought back 😊
Kim was absolutely amazing extremely friendly and welcoming when we arrived. The tasting were awesome and as per photo a awesome selection of drinks we took away with us. Love the Liqueurs which is what we got most of. Cheese 🧀 platter was absolutely delicious 😋 highly recommend this. Thank you Saint Anne's Winery for an amazing experience. Highly recommend this for anyone and we will definitely be back. Thanks Kim
A fantastic selection of wines and a lovely atmosphere make this place a real gem. We particularly enjoyed a bottle of Sparkling Brut, which had a unique, less-dry profile compared to other Bruts, with a delightful fruity finish. Highly recommend for wine lovers!
Such lovely ladies working here! Friendly to our puppies, great tasting, great platter. The wines are nice, more on the dry side which we prefer.
Free wine tasting, St Anne’s is the best and the most generous winery in the area. Hana was amazing at walking us through the wine tasting. polite, knowledgeable, hospitable with a big smile, thank you. 💯
It's a beautiful spot with a beautiful view and a relaxed atmosphere. The wine-tasting experience was fantastic, with a great variety of quality wines to enjoy. The staff was knowledgeable and friendly, making the visit even more enjoyable.
Sooo good! Wonderful wines and a fantastic share platter. Anne looked after us while we were there, she deserves 5 stars of her own, very knowledgeable and friendly, certainly made us feel welcome. No doubt we'll be back. Thank you to everyone there.
A great selection of wines (the shiraz rosé is a must try), generous platters, and friendly staff that go above and beyond. A hidden gem amongst other more popular wineries in the region.

Great place. The lady at front reception (blonde hair) was extremely lovely and helpful. This place is fantastic for kids and lots to do. We will definitely will be back.
A hidden gem. Cheap and fun place to take the kids. Part of Moama on Murray resort. Free for people staying at the park but open to all. Off-peak (winter) $5 per child. Peak periods (spring/summer) $6 per child. Pay at reception. Tip: Grab an Echuca/Moama tourist book from the info centre and use the "buy two get one free" entry if you want to save some $$. Smallish Indoor playground and toddler area. Outdoor dinosaur themed waterpark with tipping bucket. Jumping pillow, scooter track and helicopter to play in. They do have some bikes and scooters in the shed for kids to use during summer months, but not in winter. Recommend you BYO scooter/bike to avoid disappointment. -Toilets are always clean. -Have a microwave and pie warmer free to use. -Abundant parking. -Shaded areas and plenty of seating inside and outside.
really really bad never go here they dont clean there ball pit ended up with an accident its so bad never go here
Great little spot for an indoor play. Just cleaned, only downside was the cold at 9am on a winter's morning. Also, BYO coffee and snacks.
No there anymore. Sad it was a great place for the kids. Water fun on a hot day. Hope it reopens

Great venue, very accomadating, highly recommend, awesome staff ,thanks
My fully paid booking was cancelled last minute because of a fault in their booking system, and no apology was given when I was told this by text the night before. Seems to be very unprofessional, I won't be booking again.
Fun day was had with a wide variety of fields but you don't get to choose what fields you play. It's cheap for the initial paint balls but expensive (for me) for additional amounts. Expect to spend around $200 for the day. Better to go on a mid teens day rather than 20+ degree days as you get hot running about.
Awesome experience

What a great place. A great family day at the races. Even the food was fantastic and good prices.
It's amazing good food, love the sunsets
Awesome track, great viewing. Just found the food outlet doesn't have much to offer, best to take your own food.
Easy parking, great racing, very accessible.
Great speedway and the staff and volunteers so helpful. Camping was terrific too.
Very well organised great venue, well done to all parties involved in organising and running this event.
Was great to see the changes with the new grass on the first night of Sprint cars on 21 October 2023, it was fantastic. However, the organisation of the night leaves a lot to be desired. It was advertised that there would be an early start so families would get home at a reasonable hour, yet the night didn’t finish until around 1230 am. It was around 9 pm when the first sprint car heat started and kept getting later, due to track issues. The bar did not open until around 6 pm, when the night was advertised to start at 4.30pm. There was only one food window open, which also didn’t open until late, for a large crowd. This meant the line was almost down to the entry gate. It is terrible to have to submit negative reviews, when I realise that everyone is a volunteer, but I don’t think there has been one occasion that we have left Heartland at a reasonable time.
The canteen line was ridiculous! Lined up for an hour, note to self take own food next time! And make sure you rug up!! Brrr

My son went today and absolutely loved it!! Brett was kind, caring and extremely encouraging - everything a child needs when they are learning to ski. Can highly recommend and we will define back!!
had lots of fun , Brett was professional and engaging with kids . highly recommended ..
Brett was an incredible teacher. All my 3 daughters got up and waterskied on their first ever try. Amazing experience and total professionalism. As well as the most down to earth guy I’ve ever met. Id go back in a heart beat. Highlight of our week long holiday on the Murray!! Xmas 2023 🧑‍🎄 Darren
We had an awesome day on the water with Brett! He is a fabulous teacher and instructor and super humble and encouraging. Thoroughly recommend! Thanks Brett for a super day. Rich and Sue
Highly recommend! We went as a family to get some much needed coaching and Brett was a huge help. We did the full day and all agreed it was really useful to get plenty of practise in with Brett's expertise. Thanks again
My two kids (18 and 16 years) had an ‘awesome’ time in their half day lesson - learnt a lot and were really proud of themselves. Brett was excellent.
Best place for top quality ski & wakeboard gear. Helpful & Friendly Staff. Great coaching by Brett highly recommend to all for the beginning Wake Boarder & Water Skier.
Great customer service by Bo in the shop. Fantastic lesson with Brett. He caters for all ages and levels. Thanks. Gaynor

Wow... just wow. great fun for the family! I'd recommend you are able bodied. You will hardly believe it's all the way out here, but 100% worth it. Booking is essential for larger groups and large families.
Visited 30/12. Was a fun experience however there was about 50 people too many which meant it was quite dangerous and too hard to play on with that many people. I get it’s busy over the holidays, however to get more people in perhaps consider shorter sessions in with less people. Staff were really friendly!
Probably a nice place for those into this. Staff was nice and helpful, even if the briefing was so brief and quick I missed half of it. No showers which was surprising. The course was quite dirty with a lot of bird poo, which was disappointing (and ants, too, which was both surprising and disappointing)
Great idea for a waterpark, however it needs better access, more stairs and steps especially on the slide, as it was extremely slippery and one of the least used asset cause of that. More access for those who are not an Olympic athlete. The water was refreshing and the attendant's at the park were very welcoming, it was the accessible nature of the inflatables that was the let down
Awful service. Arrived at the set time to be confronted with an hour-long line to get our life jackets. The place is only open for three hours! That's a third of my time that I paid for! And it was a 38C day. Roasting for an hour. They said someone didn't show up for work. They should be prepared for that. If not then they should offer a partial refund. I sent an email to ask. They never even bothered to reply. My kids were very annoyed when they had to sit around for an hour doing nothing, with the play area right in front of them, and were even more annoyed after two hours when we got kicked out after I'd promised them three hours. (Aqua Island didn't even give us any extra time at the end to make up for it.) Awful. Don't go here. Stay away.
Our family (kids 6 & 10) all had so much fun and the staff were wonderful, making sure everyone was having fun and safe. Big thumbs up 👍
Went for the first time today. Deceptively larger than it first looks! Loved how the lifeguards helped out the younger kids all around the park. General atmosphere of encouragement and friendliness and loved seeing other parents giving it a go!
The most fun we have had since being a kid 😛 we took a 6 year old and 3 year old and both had a blast.. Tables and chairs, or bring your own, hot chips$4.5, dim Sims, potatoe cakes$1.5 and soft drink$4 there to buy. A lot of Ppl left mid way through so it got quieter but even with lots of people it was still fun. There is plenty of space. Toilets are there. Well worth a visit.
