About this cottage rental

You are invited to join us at our "Mountain Village Haven" for an all seasons experience you will not forget!

Just off the Great Alpine Road and at the base of magnificent Mt. Hotham, Pick & Shovel Cottage offers fully self-contained accommodation in a delightful miner’s cottage built to reflect the charm of early Australia, and furnished with original antiques & memorabilia.

Ski enthusiasts can enjoy magnificant Mt Hotham just a short drive away, or ski Falls Creek or Mt Buffalo also close by.

For the less adventurous, be sure to take a leisurely drive to visit local wineries, art and craft shops, nurseries and gardens, restaurants, antique stores and historic attractions.

Meander through the history of Harrietville in Pioneer Park, and visit the museum and many other historic sites within the town.

Maybe take a picnic hamper to a spot by the river or venture further to the high plains to historic cattlemans’ huts for lunch.

Catch a trout in our nearby Ovens River, or take a stroll along the banks on one of the many walking tracks in the area.

Visit the magnificent LakeTronoh, the site of Australia's largest gold mining dredge.

Greg was very accomodating for last minute changes. It was a great location for day trips to hike at Mt Hotham and Mt buffalo. Good for a pet friendly stay with basic amenities. Though lacking in cleanliness.

This is a gorgeous part of the universe. The house was cute and as stated with single bathroom and 2 bedrooms. The cottage needs a thorough clean out of dust and cobwebs, but it is a lovely, cosy place if you can overlook this. The driveway is quite overgrown and was concerning to navigate when we first arrived.Communication with the hosts was fantastic and their recommendations for things to do and places to eat were fabulous. We dealt with the paper wasp nest on the front porch ourselves.
