About this property

The Perfect Getaway!

Perfectly positioned to ensure maximum privacy, amazing views, and all you hear is the sounds of nature.
The floorplan is attached and what you will find is the large decking across the front of the home is the perfect spot to sit and enjoy the stunning surrounds. Inside the spacious two level home you'll find 3 bedrooms, 2 with built in robes and the master is luxurious with access onto the decking, beautiful mountain views from your bed, double built-in robes and even a spa bath. The timber kitchen has ample cupboards, gas cooktop and a lovely breakfast bench, adjacent to this is the lounge which is very cosy with a crackling open fire. The dining area is a lovely spot to entertain complete with a bar. Downstairs is the ultimate rumpus room (with pool table), with a massive bar…yes the home has 2! A fabulous room for all to enjoy, another shower and toilet and access to the garage.
This is a dedicated air bnb property and you have all 3,122m2 to yourself!

We love dogs and welcome them but note they are not allowed on the furniture. If you want to leave them at the property, there is a secure fenced penned area.

For those ‘inside’ days, we have a pool table, 3 ‘smart TV’s, Netflicks, Disney, You Tube, Google Chrome, over 400 dvd’s and heaps of puzzles, books, games, stereo, CD’s, records, an arcade table with 3,500 games , a Sega Mega Drive loaded with games, a dart board, basic gym weights, exercise bike and of course WIFI !

As for heating and cooling, the property has an open fire, reverse cycle split system in the main living, master bedroom and downstairs rumpus room.

In Jan 2022 we have installed two new 70 inch TV's plus a 40 inch in the master bedroom.

Accommodation:
All three bedrooms have a queen-sized beds in them
Down stairs we have a double sofa bed and 2 x single mattresses (costs apply to use this)

The surrounding area:
*The Yarra River is about 220 meters away and there are countless access points, some are very private and others more open,
*The extremely popular Redwood Forest is about 700 meters away and is simply amazing,
*The popular swimming holes are little Peninsula Tunnel 5.5kms away and big Peninsula Tunnel 6.5kms away,
*Rainforest Gallery is about 4kms away,
*Mount Donna Buang Observation Tower is about 5kms away (you should get snow during winter),
*The trails (which is why we brought the property) are incredible and all you could walk, run, mountain bike for years and not still explore them all!
*Warburton and Warburton Water World extra is about 5kms away,
*Reefton Rub is about 7km away and is our fav place !

Note: The homes comes with all the linen, basic toiletries etc. This is a new property for us from early Jan 2022, the photos are from the sales campaign (so some aspects will be different). The property came with a lot of the same furniture etc, anything else we needed, we have brought new items (like linen etc). We will continue to improve the property as time goes on. Its not luxurious but has an incredible sense of peace and tranquility. It was owner built about 35 years ago and we are the second owners.
We love the rustic appeal and brought this for a little getaway, we hope you (and your fur babies) like it as well.

Overcharges, False Advertising - do no recommend
The property, as promoted, accommodates 8 to 11 people and spans two levels with three bedrooms. However, guests should be aware of an additional fee for each person beyond the initial 4, a condition that seems unreasonable. The locks are rusty, it took us a while to unlock, and we tried different doors just as the owner suggested. Despite the presence of a cleaning charge, the property was not adequately clean upon our arrival. Cobwebs adorned the main entrance, and various areas were marred by bottles, tissues, dirty ashtrays, soiled outdoor seating, and a neglected BBQ which we couldn’t use as it was low on gas. A pervasive damp and mouldy odour permeated throughout the house. The owner, Adrian, has strategically placed several messages and reminders within the property regarding extra cleaning charges, including a peculiar note about additional charges for them having to purchase flowers for neighbours in case of noise complaints. Furthermore, the outdoor bins had not been emptied after the departure of the previous guests, resulting in an inconvenient situation where the bins were already full after our clean-up efforts. The owners, who sometimes stay at the property, left the freezer and fridge with leftover food. Some cupboards contained cobweb-covered clothes. Additionally, the property relies solely on tank water, limiting access to drinking water. Despite its location with a good view, the property's overall condition is dated and in need of considerable attention

Very comfortable, relaxing stay
We stayed here between Christmas and NY and despite the rainy weather had a lovely time. The house is comfortable and kitted out with everything you need. It's a quirky place and we enjoyed playing a bit of pool, the video games and the kids loved exploring the large garden with our dog. It's a great base to go walking from or head back into Warburton (only a short drive).

Fabulous House
We stayed the night for a Mums getaway and the house was perfect. Spacious and well maintained. The bus stop out the front was perfect for the winery tour bus to collect us

Lovely forest hideaway!
Fab property slightly out of Warburton, but a quick abd easy drive into town. Lovely and quiet on the property with tons of room to stretch the legs; our dog loved all the open space! Everything was supplied, and communication from the host was prompt and thorough. Would definitely recommend for a group weekend away!
