Thanks to the community for your feedback about Reflections Lake Burrendong. We have listened and are taking action based on what you have told us; some attention is needed. This page shares the latest updates on maintenance and operational improvements across the park.

What's the latest updates?
(16 October 2026):

Welcome to our new Park Manager

• At the end of September we welcomed David Boyd as the new Park Manager of Lake Burrendong and Mookerawa. David brings more than 20 years' experience from Hamilton Island, where he led a range of commercial and operational functions across tourism, hospitality and guest experiences. Passionate about building strong community connections, David is looking forward to getting to know the local community and helping the parks continue to thrive.

Road repairs continues:

• Following earlier delays caused by a water leak, the road has now dried sufficiently for the remaining works to resume.
• Contractors will return from 26 October 2026 to complete the remaining section of the road and repair several potholes.
• The works are expected to take about two weeks. During this time, you may notice increased heavy vehicle movements during daylight hours.
• A short section of road will be temporarily closed, but vehicle access to cabins and park will remain available
• We appreciate the community's patience and will provide a further update once the project is complete.

Please note project timelines may be affected by weather conditions.

Road Upgrades

Reflections has completed the tender process for major roadworks across the park, including pothole repairs and the reconstruction of key roads in the LTC precinct.

A contractor has been appointed, and we are now waiting for confirmation of the start date. We will update this page as soon as the timing is locked in.

The scope of road replacement works includes 520 metres of road within the LTC precinct (refer to red section), and 240 metres along Fashions Mount Road leading towards the boat ramp (refer to blue section).

Boat Ramp

Grant funding was secured for boat ramp repairs; however, the project could not proceed due to unresolved landowner consent and licensing issues with WaterNSW, despite completion of planning, design, and approvals.

Reflections previously purchased 100 tonnes of road base, and the park team have been using this to level off the edge of the boat ramp as the dam level recedes. The last time this work was done was in January 2026.

While this helps improve access in the short term, it is a temporary measure, as material can wash away when water levels rise or during periods of heavy runoff. We continue to explore options for a more permanent solution, however progress remains on hold until such time. In the meantime, the team will continue to monitor the condition of the boat ramp and carry out the temporary maintenance as needed.

Amenities

We completed some minor maintenance work in one of the amenities blocks; however, further upgrades have been identified as a priority and are planned for inclusion in the next financial year budget. Scoping and prioritisation of funds towards the investment into amenities blocks is now being reviewed by the Asset Management team.

Long-term casual maintenance fees

Over the past 12 months, Reflections has experienced significant increases in the costs associated with operating and maintaining our parks, including insurance, utilities, maintenance, contractor services and general park operations. Following an industry price review, together with the increased costs, this has meant that an annual site fee increase is necessary to help ensure the ongoing operation, maintenance, and long-term sustainability of our parks, including continued investment in facilities and guest services.
