INVERMAY RECREATION RESERVE

Public BBQ

Tucked away in Invermay, this BBQ area offers exactly the kind of no-fuss setup that makes for a proper family day out. The undercover picnic tables provide blessed relief from Victoria's unpredictable weather, while the kids can burn off energy at the playground before descending like locusts on your carefully prepared snags. The adjacent sports oval adds an unexpectedly spacious feel to the place - none of that cramped, shoulder-to-shoulder barbecuing you get at some spots. Parking is mercifully straightforward, which anyone who's tried to wrangle children, esky, and cricket set out of a car will appreciate. It's the sort of place where you can actually relax while the onions sizzle, rather than constantly scanning for escape routes. Simple, practical, and refreshingly unpretentious.
