About this house rental

Spring blossoms and idyllic days ...are you ready for crisp mornings, sunny days, and new adventures?

Experience a getaway, workation, or micro adventure in our delightfully cosy 1950s cabin - nestled close to the river, walking and bike trails, and just a short stroll to town.

Unwind amongst stunning garden and mountain views. The spacious deck with BBQ and a family-sized table is perfect for a sun-kissed morning coffee and chat with the friendly locals - king parrots, rosellas, kookaburras ...

This peaceful, dog-friendly retreat (with 1.2m fencing all round, is accessible via a cement ramp (no steps) to the front door and offers ample off-street parking. It’s the ideal place to disconnect from the world for a few days or use as a base for exploring the breathtaking Upper Yarra Ranges.

Our wonderful guests have left glowing reviews, praising our comfy beds, family-friendly amenities, vintage charm and local adventures. At night, enjoy the warm glow of the combustion stove (firewood supplied) in the lounge, or brave the outdoors and toast a few marshmallows at the firepit.

Feel a world away from the hustle and bustle of city life with Idyllwylde just an hour from Melbourne. Explore the charming and historic main street, where delightful cafes and quirky shops await, just a 5-minute walk across the bridge and oval, or enjoy a leisurely stroll along the river trails.

Whether you seek a laid-back escape or an adventure-packed weekend (maybe the new world class mountain bike park?), our cabin is the idyllic destination for families and friends. We also welcome mid-week enquiries for a refreshing break any time of the year.

Great location near the river and just a short stroll into town. Ideal for a short stay with all the amenities you need including a great wood fire which was very welcome on our rather chilly winter weekend. Property is also dog safe being fenced all around unlike many “dog friendly” places we looked at.

A great location very close to the river and easy walking distance to shops and eateries, and very peaceful. Lovely big garden for our dog to explore. Warm, cosy and comfortable inside.

We had a great time. Close to the Yarra for walks, lots of things for our dog to smell, great facilities in the house.
