An enchanted ferry ride to the island, a 10 min drive along quiet gravel roads and soon you’ll be waking up to sunrise on the beach or relaxing around the crackling fire pit watching the moon rise over the water.
The mild climate in winter and cooling sea breezes in summer, Raymond Island is at the centre of the Gippsland Lakes, the largest inland lake system in the southern hemisphere.
Enjoy swimming, bushwalking, sailing, boating and fishing in a pristine environment…or simply relax and just be. Island life is the best.
Once upon a time in Berlin – West Germany there was a young couple who fell in love and dreamt about a little house at the end of the world – just like the lyrics of a popular song of the time….
Since the 1980’s Swan Cove has welcomed visitors to this cherished end of Raymond Island – to its home at the end of the world.’ put there by luck and love, a tribute to its former creators Carl and Ingrid Poeschel.
Resident in the tall gumtrees and Old Man banksias are fluffy koalas, spiky echidnas, a family of tawny frogmouth birds, cheeky parrots, magnificent sea eagles and friendly kangaroos.

OUR GUESTS' REVIEWS
If I could give an eleven for the location, I would. If you love peace and quiet, nature and wildlife, this (and Raymond Island in general) is the place to be.
Jeroen – 5 Stars
Accommodation clean period magical, the fauna and flora was amazing as we found ourselves reconnecting with nature, the Yoga sessions were extremely good as we found ourselves discovering relaxation and inner peace.
Steven – 5 Stars
Perfect week away at Swan Cove. Very relaxing and saw a lot of wildlife. The homemade sourdough and jams for breakfast were very yummy! Kayaks were great fun too.
Shannen – 5 Stars
This is such a unique and special place to stay; tucked away on an island in a house that’s straight out of a Wes Anderson film or a fairy tale, situated right on the beach. It truly was wonderful. Kirsten and Tony are excellent hosts – very welcoming and easy to chat with.
