"This is not worth the cost. It is basically a farm stay surrounded by introduced trees with the faint smell of cow dung and the sound of gun shots. It may be near beautiful native trees of the Otways, but they are not accessible. The property map provided is out of date and access to the waterfalls hasn't been maintained. Be prepared for long arduous walks and rock climbing to access them.
We stayed for a week on daily rates but had no top up of supplies. We had to supply our own soap, bin...

"Impromptu trip away and I absolutely couldn't resist booking this accommodation (we booked the tent). All the thoughtful details, from oil for the BBQ, to the salt & pepper, to the super warm electric blankets on the beds (100% needed), comfort is number 1 priority.
In Winter, be prepared for very cold temps - extra layers, ugg boots etc.
Highly recommend this accom. "

"This property, even though basic, was very clean, the rooms were spacious and it was very comfortable. The recently renovated bathrooms were very well done. (If in one of the end rooms, it did take a long time for the hot water to heat up in the shower.) Comfortable beds and a peaceful sleep was had. Highly recommended for a comfortable stay in Colac."

"The bed was comfortable and clean. The room a good size with a kitchenette. It was quiet and very convenient, easy walking distance to shops and beach. Check in was easy.
The price for that area was fantastic, you won't find better value. It's not new and if you expect luxury go pay 4 times the amount somewhere else for similar facilities. This place kicks goals for position, meeting needs and value for money. Will stay again.
The family who run it are friendly and kind.

"Staff were very helpful and very accommodating of any requests! Ample parking. Rooms were somewhat dated but clean and comfortable to stay in. Great location close to the main strip in Lorne. Overall, great value for money and would recommend. "
"The room was tidy and everything was just as it should be. We appreciated the upgrade to the full kitchen. The free laundry facility for patrons was a nice touch. The room is minutes from the beach and all the amenities of the village. "
"Lovely quiet room, private and comfortable. Sitting on the deck listening to the ocean at night - bliss. Breakfast cuppa with the birds was wonderful. An excellent venue, fast self check in and wonderful hosts. Many thanks!"
"We loved this property - easy to find and in a great location. Sheltered parking space right outside the door of our room. A few minutes walk from the shops, restaurants and beach. The room itself was beautifully clean and had everything needed for our stay. Easy check-in and out with friendly, welcoming staff. We would recommend this property."
