Romantic Retreat in the Dandenong Mountains with amazing city views

One of the earlier homes built in the Ranges, this unique century old Mountain Ash Log Cabin has been extended and updated over the years to create an enchanting haven to call home whether it’s for a night, a weekend or forever. One of the three remaining log cabins built by pioneer Jack Dodd (another being Kelly’s Hotel in Mt Dandenong). Often, you’ll be above the clouds or among them adding to the cathartic ambience. The romantic log-lined lounge hosts a cozy wood fire with a glass of love.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned cabin, which features a fireplace and a Smart TV. Conveniences include a microwave and a washing machine.
Guests will find features like onsite parking.

Great views but not for the faint-hearted
The property pictures do show the quaintness of the property - it is an old cottage but updated with a good bathroom, great views etc. We enjoyed our stay & it was a great place. We were surprised at how steep & narrow the driveway was however - the first couple of times driving up there we had to be extremely careful - not much room for error!

Loved everything about this property. Can’t wait to come back. It would have been good to have enough firewood to satisfy our two night stay, rather than having to spend another $40 to buy more from the local servo. Apart from that, it was great.
