Stunning traditional log home in the High Country, 2km to base of Mt Buller. Surrounded by bushland, this cosy cabin is a fairytale base to explore the year round activities offered by the mountain, forest & river that embraces it.
A king room downstairs, 2 loft bedrooms upstairs, fireplace, leather couches & huge shower are a perfect base after a day on the slopes. A tramp & monkey bars in the fully fenced backyard will keep the young at heart entertained in this little off mountain retreat
The space
Huge timber logs dominate the interior and exterior. A rustic, industrial feel invites you to warm up beside the wood fire in winter or enjoy the expansive decking in summer.
This character filled home has 3 bedrooms. The ground floor bedroom has a king bed, while the 2 bedrooms upstairs are open loft style. One has a queen bed, while the other has 4 king singles. The downstairs open study area has a premium quality sofa bed if additional beds are required. All bedrooms are heated.
Streaming capable TV’s are located in the living, study, King and Queen rooms, with BluRay players in the study and Queen rooms.
Family friendly with a secure yard, large trampoline and monkey bars, Wii console and games, plus space on the huge deck for the grown ups to relax and look out over the magical bush land views.
PLEASE NOTE -We are NOT located on Mt Buller, but in Sawmill Settlement, the closest off mountain town, which is 2km to the entrance gates of Mt Buller. It is approximately a 30 minute drive in good traffic and conditions to the village car park. We are not above the snowline, so please don't book expecting to be staying in the snow.
Outside of the snow season, we are happy to consider up to 2 well behaved dogs, written permission must be obtained.
