It is a popular destination for recreational, water-based activities including boating, water skiing, canoeing, swimming and fishing. Pets are OK but must be kept under control at all times. Lake Meadowbank is located a short drive from the major township of New Norfolk and can easily accommodate big rigs such as large caravans, campervans, camper trailers and motorhomes.
