French Island is approx. two-thirds national park and is unincorporated, therefore is not governed by a local council, so no council rates apply. Being off the grid means there are no power companies to deal with and no water rates to pay. About an hour from Melbourne, but like stepping back in time, we are a small community of around 100 residents, accessible by passenger ferry from Stony Point, or vehicle barge from Corinella.
