Bonney Lodge in Barmera is a residential aged care hostel on the shores of Lake Bonney in the Riverland, providing low-to-medium level residential care and personal support for older adults in this popular lakeside community surrounded by vineyards and citrus orchards. The lodge offers a welcoming community-oriented residential environment close to Barmera's lake, heritage museum, and community facilities, serving older residents of Barmera and the broader Riverland who wish to remain close to their communities in the Murray-Darling basin. The facility's proximity to Lake Bonney — scene of Donald Campbell's 1964 water speed record — and the surrounding Riverland vineyards creates a distinctive setting for aged care in inland South Australia.

Quality measures

Care time delivered: 223 minutes per resident per day (target 214), of which 45 from a registered nurse.

Compliance action The regulator (the Aged Care Quality and Safety Commission) can take formal action when a home falls short of the standards — from a direction to improve, up to a Notice of Non-Compliance or sanctions. "None current" means no action was recorded against this home in the Government's latest quarterly extract (May 2026).
