Calm welcoming space. The cabin is set on a little slope overlooking a beautiful parkland with a natural lake and walking track and a 5 minute walk to the centre of town. Cabin is very well appointed, clean and cosy. All cooking facilities are there. Lovely fenced area for our pet to explore. Love this place.

Goldfields getaway
Property is in a fantastic location near the heart of Creswick. The cabin was well appointed, cosy and comfortable. There were many thoughtful additions to help make our stay more comfortable, like rugs, magazines, quirky decor to name a few. Our little dog thoroughly enjoyed the enclosed outdoor area as did we. We loved our stay here.

Tiny, but so comfy
We stayed 2 nights to be in the area for the Ballarat marathon. Loved the house! Had everything we needed and was very comfy. We loved pottering around Creswick, eating yummy food, walking the walks. Definitely on the “come back here” list
