Guests love the peaceful bush setting just a few minutes from Lorne, with abundant wildlife right on the doorstep. Many mention close encounters with kangaroos, kookaburras, cockatoos, rosellas and king parrots, plus starry night skies. The eco tents, Sunrise lodges and the Lighthouse cabin are praised for being cosy and well equipped, with heated beds and electric blankets, fireplaces or log burners, a panel heater, spa bath, kitchen or kitchenette facilities, Weber BBQs, decks or balconies, and easy self check?in via lock box. Families enjoy the playground, walking tracks and yabby dam, and several guests highlight the tranquil views and the chance to hand?feed birds with provided seed.
Service gets a big tick too. Several reviewers mentioned Kylie for her warm, helpful hospitality and thoughtful check?ins. Visitors describe their stays as relaxing, comfortable and rejuvenating, whether for a quick Great Ocean Road stopover or a longer getaway by the fire pit with a glass of wine.
