Boundary Hut | Mavora Lakes Conservation Area
Following the much-publicised vandalism when the verandah and fence of Boundary Hut were ripped up and burnt, the mattresses stolen, and additional ventilation provided to the long drop with a peppering with bullets, Boundary Hut has since been fully restored.
Time to stop 4WD access, surely.
There is no firewood nearby, so no heating is provided; otherwise, it has a cosy feel.
