Amaruq Log Cabin - Base of Mt Buller - Long weekend available!

Stunning traditional log home at the base of Mt Buller. Surrounded by bushland, this cosy cabin is a fairytale base to explore the year round activities offered by the mountain, forest and river that embraces it.
Featuring a king room downstairs and two loft bedrooms upstairs, the opportunity for wildlife viewing from the deck is endless. A large trampoline and monkey bars in the fully fenced backyard will keep the young at heart entertained in this little mountain retreat.
Huge timber logs dominate the interior and exterior. A rustic, industrial feel invites you to warm up beside the wood fire in winter or enjoy the expansive decking in summer.
This character filled home has 3 bedrooms. The ground floor bedroom has a king bed, while the 2 bedrooms upstairs are open loft style. One has a queen bed, while the other has 4 king singles. The downstairs open study area has a premium quality sofa bed if additional beds are required. All bedrooms are heated.
Streaming capable TV’s are located in the living, study, King and Queen rooms, with BluRay players in the study and Queen rooms.
Family friendly with a secure yard, large trampoline and monkey bars, Wii console and games, plus space on the huge deck for the grown ups to relax and look out over the magical bush land views.
We are happy to consider up to 2 well behaved dogs, written permission must be obtained.
ALL adult guests are required to provide a copy of their government issued ID and a contact number for insurance purposes.
Please be aware that we are in the bush - a high fire danger area surrounded by wildlife, insects and unreliable wifi.

Beautiful winter escape

We loved our stay in this gorgeous log cabin. The decor was tasteful and cosy, beds were so comfortable, really nice shower, loved the outside area with the spring-free trampoline, and the fireplace kept us toasty and warm. It was so wonderful to be able to take our dog away with us and stay in such a beautiful home. Thank you!

Easter getaway

Couldn’t recommend this property highly enough. Would have loved to have made use of the large deck but unfortunately weather was not in our favour. Host makes stay easy with everything you need supplied. With 8 adults, one 6 year old and one 7 month old I thought the one bathroom would be a problem but it was fine. Very tidy, warm and cosy. Loved also being able to take our beloved pooches. Indoor and outdoor dog beds were also provided. Amazing. 6 year old also loved the back yard trampoline and monkey bars. Thanks for a helping make our family easter getaway so good.
