Top hotels and accommodation in Cougal

Christmas Creek Cafe & Cabins
3.5 star property
8.8 out of 10, Excellent, 30 reviews
"We enjoyed our overnight stay at Christmas Creek Cafe & Cabins. The cabins were basic but clean, there was a small heater, enough to take the edge off the chill in the room and plenty of warm blankets provided. We made a small fire down by the creek and the kids loved playing in and around the creek. Was lovely to get away and disconnect from the everyday routine! "
