Directions
- Drive through SHOTOVER STREET and continue along the LAKE ESPLANADE (lake is on your left, hotels/motels are on your right) until you reach a roundabout indicating GLENORCHY.
(Please do NOT turn right at this roundabout and head up the hill where it says "Fernhill/Sunshine Bay" - this is the wrong end of Fernhill Road).
- Instead - keep left and head toward GLENORCHY. You will see a roadsign indicating that Glenorchy is 44km away - it is - but you only need travel 1.8km until you get to a sign on your left that says
"FERNHILL ROAD, SUNSHINE BAY, LODGE".
- Turn right into FERNHILL Road, take the first left into ARAWATA Terrace and left again into EVERGREEN Place. There are brown and white "LODGE" signs at each turn.
- Evergreen Lodge is located at the END of Evergreen Place - a cul de sac. Take the last driveway on your left and head down towards the lake. The entrance and parking for Evergreen Lodge is last on the right at the bottom of the driveway.
