The period between 1901 – 1912 was Balfour’s golden years with the reward claim producing 3 tones of Copper Ore in 1908 which was transported to Whaleshead Creek [Temma] by horse on a wooden tramway 21 km long.
Balfour was all but abandoned in 1912 when typhoid devastated the population. Along with copper running out and a falling copper price, William Murr the mine manager suicided.
The physical remains of the settlement have mostly been claimed by fire or the Tarkine that has a natural ability to reclaim back the rain forest.
This building is one of four that was built in the 70’s to support a mining expedition.
The timber clad shack is in great condition and can comfortably accommodate 8 as is. A stunning bathroom with all mod cons is a rare find in this isolated part of the world. A large kitchen area allows you to cook a feast for friends on the gas stove. The loungeroom boasts a large Saxon woodheater to deter the wildest of west Coast nights.
Relax around the fire pit or take the kids on an adventure back in history.
The old-world charm of this shack embraces you warmly and is designed to make memories with family and friends for an eternity.
