Overview

Lake Muir is a rural locality in the Shire of Manjimup, set in Western Australia’s South West region. The South Western Highway defines its south‑western edge while the Muir Highway marks the northern boundary, providing easy road links to neighbouring towns. The area is dominated by protected landscapes, including parts of Shannon National Park and the extensive Lake Muir and Boyndaminup National Parks, offering residents and visitors immediate access to wilderness and outdoor recreation.

A heritage‑listed homestead from 1865 sits on the western shore of Lake Muir, reflecting the locality’s pioneering past. In the north‑west, the former mill town of Strachan, still known locally as Tone River, was built by the State Housing Commission for mill employees, but its zoning as a tourism site now restricts permanent residence, leaving the housing mix largely rural and seasonal. Together, the natural reserves, historic sites and accessible highways create a tranquil lifestyle focused on nature‑based leisure.
