Behind the house there are paths leading to a lagoon with 2 creeks, with 2 garden bridges giving access to cross the creeks. There is a small jetty leading to a Japanese pagoda-like structure set over the water. The lagoon is currently stocked with native fish such as Rainbows which eat any mosquito larvae, Barcoo Grunter, Jewfish, etc and has been stocked with Barramundi in the past which were cooked and eaten at 1m. There are also lovely waterlilies in several colours.
