“My partner and I had a lovely time. Michael, the host, was as exceptional as the dinner he prepared for us. The freshly delivered warm croissants in the morning were the perfect way to start the day. The cabin is homey and well cared for. If you're staying in Montville, we definitely recommend you stay here.”

FAQ
Stay essentials.
What kinds of cabins do you have?
Ten self-contained timber cabins on sixteen acres. Seven are single-storey couples cabins (king bed, sleeps two; one studio with queen). Three are two-storey cabins with a king bedroom upstairs and a sofa bed in the lounge – they sleep up to four.
How far apart are the cabins?
Fifty to one hundred metres between each cabin. No shared walls, no shared verandahs, no neighbours within earshot. The two-storey cabins are grouped at one end of the property; the couples cabins set deeper into the gardens and rainforest.
What is included in every cabin?
King-size spa bath, wood-burning fireplace (firewood supplied April to September), private balcony or patio with hooded BBQ, self-contained kitchen with stovetop, microwave, fridge and toaster (no oven), reverse-cycle air conditioning, ceiling fan, hardwood floors, flat-screen TV with DVD player, board games, books, bathrobes, free toiletries, hairdryer, linens and towels.
What about breakfast?
A continental breakfast hamper is stocked in the cabin for the length of your stay – cereals, yogurt, juice, milk, bread, butter, jams, seasonal fruit. Each morning, Michael delivers fresh croissants to the door. A bacon, egg, sausage and mushroom add-on is available for $25 for two.
Can we order dinner to the cabin?
Yes. BBQ dinner hampers and hot dinner hampers are $95 and can be pre-ordered when you book. Day-of orders are taken until 4 p.m.; 24 hours’ notice is appreciated for the BBQ options. Full menu on the Menu page.
Is there Wi-Fi in the cabin?
No. The site geography limits coverage and we have leaned into it – this is an unplug-and-listen-to-the-rain place. Limited Wi-Fi access is available on request for genuine need.
Are the cabins air-conditioned?
Yes. Reverse-cycle air conditioning with a ceiling fan in every cabin. The wood fireplace handles the cooler months from April through September.
What are the check-in and check-out times?
Check-in is from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. (office hours 8 a.m. to 7 p.m.). Check-out is 11 a.m. If you are arriving after office hours, please contact us in advance for after-hours instructions.
Are children welcome?
The two-storey cabins (Rose Gum, Iron Bark, Hoop Pine) accommodate up to two children alongside two adults. The single-storey couples cabins are sized for two; we do not recommend them for families with children. A high chair and baby safety gates are available on request. Ages 0–2 stay free; ages 3 and up are charged per night.
Are pets allowed?
No pets, with the exception of registered guide dogs. The property backs onto national park and rainforest, and our wildlife policy reflects that.
Can we smoke?
Smoking is not permitted inside the cabins. It is permitted on your private balcony with the doors and windows closed. A $500 cleaning fee applies to violations.
Can we feed the wildlife?
No. Feeding any wildlife is prohibited under Parks and Gardens legislation. Kookaburras will visit your meals anyway – please enjoy them, but do not feed.
Can we swim in the lake?
No. The lake is twenty-eight metres deep, spring-fed and extremely cold. It is for the view, not for swimming.
Is there parking?
Free on-site parking for one vehicle per cabin, directly beside your patio.
How does housekeeping work?
Daily housekeeping is included for stays longer than four nights. Shorter stays are serviced on arrival and departure; the hamper is restocked as you use it.
What is the damage deposit?
A refundable AUD $200 damage deposit is taken on arrival by credit card. American Express attracts a 3% surcharge. Diners Club is not accepted.
