I was fortunate enough to go on their glow worm tour recently and it was certainly something to remember. Paddling on the lake under the careful guidance of their friendly and experienced team was a wonderful, peaceful way to spend an evening. I admit, I was quite surprised to arrive at the upstream waiting point to find a fire blazing away, since this is a no-fire zone and the local fire warning level was very high at the time. There was no-fire-zone signage around, so it is worth asking about.
The drift downriver after sunset is something magical, with the glow worms out in force lighting up the banks such that is can be hard to tell where the land stops and the sky starts.
The final paddle back to the staging area at Epworth Camp can be a little bit of a mission, as you end up paddling up the current, but it's not a long paddle and the team are always there to offer a tow if you need it.

Good service, enthusiasm, and organisation. The guides are knowledgeable manage a fairly large group of people with ranging levels of experience quite well. Completed the glowworm kayak experience and it was a really well done trip. Recommending the trip to whoever is interested, it can be a bit of hard work, but worth it, an awesome way to see glowworms and kayak in the dark.

Very nice venue for private functions. Although as a drop in cafe they have very limited menu. We had lunch here after our kayaking. Food was nice but a bit expensive.
