Why This Place Matters

Ben’s Falls Retreat was never built to be flashy or fancy — it was built with heart.

What started as a peaceful family property has grown into a destination for couples who want a wedding that feels grounded, real, and surrounded by nature. Every part of the retreat — from the river flats to the cabins and reception space — has been shaped by hands-on work, family effort, and a love for hosting meaningful gatherings.

We’ve hosted weddings, long lunches, and slow Sunday mornings here for years, always with the same goal: to create a space where people can relax, celebrate, and really connect.

Couples come here because they want more than just a beautiful backdrop (though we have plenty of that). They want the ease of having everything in one place — ceremony spots, reception setup, food, drinks, and comfy beds — and a team that genuinely cares about making the weekend run smoothly.

This is a place where people gather around firepits, take a quiet moment by the river, and dance under the stars without worrying about a thing. If you're after a wedding that feels thoughtful, relaxed and a little bit magical — we think you'll feel right at home here.

The Function Centre

At the heart of the property is the function centre — a warm, rustic space perched on a cliff above the river. With one of the best views in the region, it’s hosted everything from big celebrations to small, thoughtful gatherings.

The centre is flexible and unfussy. Bring your people, your ideas, and we’ll help make it feel like yours.
