I stayed at one outside of portland years agp, it was eastern side of town. the owners also put on some home cooked meals in the "bar", food was great. Lots of rev heads in the area who overtake on double yellow!! There is also a top spot west (forget how far, near SA border i think) ) called Nelson, you can motor up the river for heaps (40km i think) if you have a tinny. It also has a top little pub.
Portland looked like a good spot to stop for a while, enjoy.
