About this Holiday House

Small Bach located in the Craigieburn Forest Park. Has views of Mount Cheesman and Broken River ski fields. During the summer months it is a user friendly place to stay with easy access to mountain bike tracks, bush walks etc. Has gas cooking and water heating and a small gas fridge, log burner in the lounge and gas fire in dining room. Deck with BBQ. Sitting just above the beech forest. The nearest store and petrol station is Springfield about 3/4 of an hour drive away. This bach is powered by solar panels and has a backup generator, so it pays to bring about 4 lts of petrol in case you need to use it. During the winter months the water needs to be turned on, and the system drained when you leave. There is a chance of snow and ice on the road which is not cleared in the winter. We recommend that you carry snow chains in the winter. If you have a two wheel drive car you should park in the bottom car park & walk the last 40 meters to the bach up the hill. A basic requirement to stay here is to be able to light a wood burner and follow instructions

Heaven-Leigh Karanga
Great wee place in the mountains with views of the ski fields. Felt like we were the only ones up there. Took a little bit of time to set up the power etc but instructions are very clear and easy to follow. We hope to be back
Katerina Orsakova
it was very nice and clean and very straightforward instructions for everything. the only advice i would like yo give your next guests bring your own toilet paper.
Response from Owner
We were unaware that there was no toilet paper, normally there would be. We do apologise .
Briar Topp
What a wonderful escape into nature. The home reminds me of simpler times—we loved the cosy fireplace and mountain views. Took a bit of time to get water and power going (we went in winter) but had no troubles with it once we followed all instructions. Thanks Richard, we had a wonderful stay!
