Appalachian High-Country Retreat - Pet Friendly Countryside Escape

Escape to the tranquility of the High Country in this stunning hand-crafted log home nestled on 7 peaceful acres, just moments from Lake Eildon. Designed for relaxation and adventure, this spacious retreat sleeps up to 9 guests across 4 bedrooms—perfect for families, couples, or groups of friends.

Step inside to soaring cathedral ceilings, a statement chandelier, and a cosy log fire that instantly welcomes you in. The open-plan living space is flooded with natural light from the north-facing windows, and the fully equipped country-style kitchen features stone benchtops and a beautiful nature-inspired splashback.

Enjoy your morning coffee on the wraparound timber deck, watch kangaroos graze nearby, or unwind in the freestanding bath after a day exploring. The upstairs master suite offers complete privacy with a luxurious ensuite, while the remaining three bedrooms downstairs share a beautifully appointed family bathroom.
