Prior to being named, a homestead was constructed on the property in 1857. In 1865 the first road was established to take horse-drawn coaches from East to West, stopping at the stagecoach barn to break along the way- a barn still standing today that is now our activity centre. In 1917, James Milliken IV named the station Flock Hill after the scattered limestone rocks at Cave Stream that resemble distant flocks of sheep.  

Flock Hill Station has transitioned through various owners and welcomed visitors from many walks of life.  The property has also weathered many storms over more than a century, from the destructive floods of 1868 to the heavy snow season of 1992. The stories of Flock Hill Station have been shared over generations and remain alive today. Some are tragic, some humorous, some culturally significant and others testament to the strength and resilience of the property and its custodians. Flockhill Lodge aims to continue these stories, breathing new life into the storied land and continuing its legacy.
