Overview

Middle River sits on Kangaroo Island’s north‑coast, overlooking Investigator Strait and lying about 162 km south‑west of Adelaide. The locality’s long‑established name is reflected in its two modest shack sites, Middle River Shack Site and King George Shack Site, offering a relaxed, seaside lifestyle framed by agricultural lands and protected coastal zones. Residents enjoy easy access to nearby Snelling Beach and the scenic Constitution Hill, while the Middle River Reservoir provides a reliable water supply and a pleasant spot for outdoor recreation.

The area is primarily agricultural, with conservation efforts preserving the shoreline and the drainage basin that feeds the reservoir. Situated within the Kangaroo Island Council, federal division of Mayo and state district of Mawson, Middle River benefits from regional road links to Adelaide and the rest of the island, making commuting and transport straightforward for both locals and visitors.
