About this property

Hideaway @ Sawmill Settlement

Accommodating up to 7 guests, Hideaway @ Sawmill is ideally set up for a family or small group of friends with 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom and open plan lounge and dining area.
The lovely front deck is perfectly positioned to allow you to relax & unwind with a cuppa soaking up the morning sun, or cook a family feast on the BBQ in the evening watching over the kids running around on grassed area below.
The kitchen may be small, however it is well equipped with crockery, cutlery, microwave & fridge.

In winter take the easy 3min drive to the entrance of Mt Buller, go for a bush walk or simply keep cosy indoors, relaxing on the couch by the crackling of the wood fire reading a book or watching a movie.... For that real country feel, take the kids and toast some marshmallows outside by the designated fire pit *conditions apply

In the warmer months, wander down to the Delatite river for a paddle or splash in the cool clear water. Take the fishing rods and try your luck at catching a trout; or pack a picnic to the lovely Mirrimbah park only minutes away from the cottage. Bring your bike and go for a leisurely ride around the quiet Sawmill Settlement streets.

Apart from being one of the best locations for snow activities, there are many nearby attractions including horse riding, cycling, 4-wheel driving, motor bike riding, markets, plus much more and with an abundance of wildlife, great fishing and a relaxing atmosphere, you won't want to leave!
Hideaway @ Sawmill is a great base to set off from to explore what the High Country Mountains, Rivers and Lakes have to offer. Or simply stay at home, relax & enjoy the natural peace and watch the sunsets from the verandah and stargaze into the clearest of night skies.

Great location

Great location for heading to Mt Buller. Enjoyed making a fire every afternoon after coming back from the ski fields. Lots of birdlife and the owners thoughtfully left seed for us to feed them. Excellent communication from the owners.

Lovely little cosy place that was perfect for our trip to the snow. Just a suggestion but not a criticism, electric blankets on the beds would have been awesome 👏

Perfect Family Hideaway

The house was perfect for our family weekend away to the snow. It was very clean and great location to Buller and restaurants that we love. Comfortable beds and we thought the boxes of tissues in every room was a nice touch. Though the appliances are of yesterday-years, we actually think it adds to the charm of the place and works just as well. Looking forward to returning. Loved our stay!

Had a wonderful weekend in a cozy clean spot with good company. All the rooms are heated, plus a fireplace in the living area. The small kitchen forced me to get closer to my wife :-)

Nice place but can certainly be better

The property is set in a beautifully quiet and serene location, with stunning, unobstructed views of the forest — truly ideal for those seeking a peaceful retreat. However, it’s worth noting that it’s quite remote, with the nearest amenities about 25 km away, so plan ahead.Inside, the beds were comfortable and the kitchen was decently equipped for a short stay. That said, I was disappointed to find numerous expired food items left behind. It made me question how thoroughly the place is cleaned between guest stays.The biggest concern was the bathroom. The shower area was very cramped, and the toilet was quite unclean, with noticeable yellow stains and grime — not something you’d expect from a VRBO listing.With a bit more attention to cleanliness and maintenance, this property has great potential. The location is lovely, but the overall experience could be improved with better upkeep.

The place is called Hideaway for a reason. Surrounded with tall trees and located on a hill, the only sound you can hear is nature. The house is very cosy and clean, classic cabin-like holliday house. It's not a big house but perfect for us as a group of 6. The kids love the bunkbed. We stayed for 3 nights for a snow trip to Mt. Buller and the house is located less than 30 minutes to the mountain. Perfect for early bird. It also takes about 30 min drive to the nearest town (Mansfield). So preparation e.g. groceries, etc. is highly recommended.We don't have any complaints during our stays but we do have few suggestions. The house listing mentioned laundry but not dryer. The house does have dryer but we're not sure if we're allowed to use it (the knob is missing) so we didn't try to use it.The house has a booklet with some information, but it would be great if there are more instructions for using the appliances, for example if we're allowed to use the dryer or not, or how to use it. How to use the fireplace. Etc.Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would definitely save this for our future trip.

Little details, shampoo soap, laundry powder, plenty of fire wood, smart TV, heating in main room works well and bedrooms have panel heated that are superb. Milk and coffee, cooking oil and plenty of kitchen utensils. Will stay again
