A cozy, comfortable cabin in the most beautiful location and pet friendly too!

We had the most wonderful stay here. The cabin itself was comfortable and cosy. Our hosts were fabulous - so welcoming to us and our dogs and full of ideas for us to make the most of our trip. The location of the property was perfect for exploring the Upper Murray region. The views from the deck over the river whether first thing in the morning or for a sunset drink are magnificent.

What a beautiful little part of the world

Ron and Sarah are gracious hosts who made sure we had everything we needed but also left us alone to explore and enjoy this wonderful property. If you are passing Towong don't miss this gem. Our puppy also had a good time playing with all the neigbouring dogs.

Ah, the serenity!

We stayed in the 1 bedroom cottage built by Ron himself, with wonderful exposed timbers and unique wood carved features. Peaceful location and a Murray valley view at the bottom of the garden to die for. Lovely place to chill out or as a base for exploring the snowy mountains and valleys
