Any idea what the closet service station is? Just trying to suss out if I'll need to bring any spare fuel.

There is petrol and diesel in Licola but it is dear as poison. There is also fuel in Heyfield.
I would fill up in Traralgon for sure mate, maybe top up in Licola if you think you will need to.

Bairnsdale definitely has fuel, I'd imagine Maffra would too. If not, as Winnie said Heyfield will have some.
Just checked, Google says Maffra has an Independent & a United. Both on the main street.

Sorry mate, gave you a bum steer there!
Yes fill to the brim in Bairnsdale because diesel is real cheap there!
Maffra has fuel for sure but Heyfield closes at 5pm from memory. I don't reckon you'll need much fuel mate.

Not long to go now gents!
Weather looks perfect so far, we are up for fluffy dumps this week and so far the weekend looks good for us weather wise...

Yeah can't wait. Filled both tanks on the weekend before the price went up 20c p/l. We obviously need to bring sleeping bags etc etc. No heating in the rooms too? Sorry, never been there and I'm getting hammered with questions here.
They have beds but bring sheets and bedding mate.
Yeah no heaters but there is 240v power
