It's fair to say the weather gods have not been overly kind through Easter and the school holiday period.
And it has people wondering what does Lakes Entrance - billed as a tourist town - offer when you can't get outdoors?

Restaurants and accommodation houses reported good trade with a handful of campers leaving early, but others coming in to fill their spots.
