Attractions

Austins Ferry is the suburb with the most parks in Australia, and a great place to spend a holiday, base yourself for business or just stay for a day or two. The area reeks in history and to get to our properties you actually drive past historic James Austin Park where the first ferry in Tasmania was located. There is a public launching ramp and yacht club at the end of Austins Ferry Road, very close to all our properties and parks all around to walk in.

As a backdrop Austins Ferry has the magnificent Derwent River, wonderful parks and two mountains, yet the area is close to many attractions, shopping and the city. There are shops, takeaways, a wood fired pizzeria within walking distance along the main road and bus route. In nearby Claremont there are both Italian and Chinese restaurants. A modern Woolworths-Safeway shopping complex is one km or 2-3 minutes away by car.

There are a number of historic buildings in the area including Austins Cottage reputed to be the second oldest in Tasmania still standing.

Austins Ferry is also close to the Glenorchy and Hobart CBD's, some of Tasmania's largest employers and the best tourist attractions north of Hobart including Moorilla, Cadbury's. Alpemrail, Richmond, Bonorong Wildlife Park, Salmon Ponds, and the Derwent Valley. Claremont Golf and Bowls Clubs are both only a couple of kilometres away.

Hobart is just a 15 minute drive away from Derwent Vista and this city is surrounded by water with mountains as a backdrop, old world waterfront and one of the best Saturday markets in the world.

Southern Tasmania is a happening place with every activity possible from jet boating to skiing, from mountain climbing to some of the best walking in the world. Snorkeling or surfing, fishing or just snoozing on a beach are all within an hour or so from Waterside Accommodation properties.
