Idyllwylde: pet-friendly, renovated vintage cabin, close to town and river

Experience a spring or summer getaway in our delightful 1950s cabin, nestled close to the river, walking trails, and a short stroll to town.

Recently renovated and thoughtfully equipped, unwind amongst stunning garden and mountain views. The spacious deck with BBQ and a family-sized table is perfect for a morning coffee on a sunny mornings or to have a chat with the friendly locals - king parrots, rosellas, kookaburras ... most recently a female lyrebird.

This peaceful, dog-friendly retreat (with 1.2m fencing all round) is accessible via a cement ramp (no steps) to the front door and offers ample off-street parking. It’s the ideal place to disconnect from the world for a few days or use as a base for exploring the breathtaking Upper Yarra Ranges.

Our wonderful guests have left glowing reviews, praising our comfy beds, family-friendly amenities, vintage charm and local adventures. The indoor woodburning stove is perfect for those cooler evenings, and the bedrooms have heaters and electric blankets on the beds until mid spring.

Feel a world away from the hustle and bustle of city life with Idyllwylde just an hour from Melbourne. Explore the charming and historic main street, where delightful cafes and quirky shops await, just a 5-minute walk across the bridge and oval, or enjoy a leisurely stroll along the river trails.

Whether you seek a laid-back escape or an adventure-packed weekend, our cabin is the idyllic destination for families and friends. We also welcome mid-week inquiries for a refreshing break any time of the year.
