Wappan Station Was built around the 1880's on the banks of the Delatite River, Bonnie Doon. In the 1920's The State Rivers Water Commission compulsorily acquired Wappan Station pending the building of the Sugar loaf Dam. When the waters did not flood the land, it was resold in 1934. In 1952 construction was started on Eildon Weir, ten times larger than Sugar loaf. This time this beautiful homestead would definitely be flooded and so once again the land was acquired by the Water Commission. The family that owned the homestead dismantled it brick by brick and rebuilt the homestead, which continues today on part of the original property as a cattle station and farm holiday retreat. Foundations of the original Wappan homestead and cattle yards keep emerging from the receded waters of Lake Eildon during the drought 2002 - 2007. It makes for great photo opportunities. Below is a picture I found of the original homestead on the Internet and below it is a photo I took Last Easter.
