We were going to Creswick for a family reunion and came across this retro little place in our search for accommodation. It was just perfect and exactly what we were looking for. Very comfortable and spotlessly clean. I’m sure we will return one day.

Cosy and snug accommodation which is ideally located near to the town’s central facilities.The lake opposite provided good walking tracks around its perimeter and the position of the cabin is peacefully sited.The swimming pool is within the boundary of the park/lake and not “on the grounds” of the cabin itself.The cabin was clean and was good value for money.

We had just one night at this cabin, but would happily have stayed longer. The cabin itself is lovely and well kitted out. We sat on the verandah looking over the park and lake. The lake is great for swimming in, lovely and cool after a hot day. A short walk to the Farmers hotel for a lovely (and large) meal no WiFi but that doesn't matter at all!

The property was exactly as listed - clean & cosy. However, I hadn't realised how close the property was to the lake! It was wonderful to look out and see the water. I was also able to bring my little dog, who loved running around the fenced in front yard. Highly recommend for a quick getaway.

We stayed here during one of the coldest, stormiest weekends in Victoria and the cabin was so cosy and warm. The cabin had everything we needed, was so clean and well presented. The lake and park across the road is perfect. Our puppy Harry enjoyed the daily walks, around the lake, as did we.
