Your Friendly Café in the Heart of Homestead Lake Country Park

Nestled in the retail showground at Homestead, the Homestead Cabin Café is just a short walk from the lodge park and the main reception. Whether you’re starting the day, winding down by the lake, or grabbing a bite between showings, we’re here for you. We have indoor seating, a covered porch (dog-friendly!), and outdoor seating when weather allows.
