Welcome to Rappville
About 20 kilometres south of Casino a turnoff leads you through pleasant farming land to the village of Rappville, a former bustling timber and beef village which continues to have an involvement with those industries.
Rappville is a quiet village with the most prominent building being the Commercial Hotel, or as it is most commonly known, the Rappville Pub. This two-storey timber building was completed in 1911 to serve the thriving timber and railway township.
