Great views
There is no automatic telemeter gauge for the water level of the creek supplying the water on the Bureau of Meteorology website or for the water level of the actual reservoir itself. Would be nice if the Bureau installed two of them to help the city measure its water supply.
Not worth the effort. 2ks off the highway. Small picnic and basic playground.
It’s a town water reservoir so no access to it.

You're not allowed in the water, to fish or even walk around the reservoir. Not worth the drive.
Park and BBQ area. Playground for the kids. Free public BBQ. Seating and tables. Great views.
