Sawmill Cottage in Icy Creek - your stylish high country escape.
Welcome to Icy Creek! Leave hustle and bustle of big city behind. No crowds, no traffic lights, no neighbours. Discover beautiful Gippsland High Country. Fresh mountain air, rolling hills, breath taking sunrises and sunsets. Feels like light years away, yet only 1 hour and 45 minutes from Melbourne CBD. Less than 15 minutes drive to the quaint town of Noojee, home of the famous Nooj Pub with historic trestle bridge and Toorongo falls a short distance away. Mt Baw Baw will be within 34 kilometres scenic drive from your front door. Skiing and tobogganing in winter, variety of walking and bike tracks the rest of the year. Blue Rock Lake is 30 minutes drive and is very popular with locals and visitors alike for fishing, water skiing or just having a picnic or going for a swim. Speaking of fishing, there's plenty of trout in the local rivers and streams for the keen anglers to catch. Alternatively, you can just relax, do very little, recharge, take in surrounding country landscape. Read a book, catch up on your crossword or Sudoku, meditate – it's all good! Birds will keep you company, providing a natural background music. Cows might find you interesting, staring at you from behind the fence. Stoke the fire and pour yourself a glass of wine. Now, that's life the way it suppose to be! Oh, the serenity...
Cottage is a fully self contained two bedroom accommodation. Being the original building on the site of an old sawmill, it's being lovingly restored to it's current glamorous state by local builder. Two bedrooms with queen size beds, lounge room, classy bathroom and well appointed country style kitchen. Modern comforts include a charming wood burner, reverse cycle air conditioner in the sitting room and ceiling fans in the bedrooms. Front and back verandas and outdoor entertaining area with gas BBQ and a chiminea compliment the setting.
Your home away from home is on a five acre property and stands separately from the main house about 120 meters away. There's a private driveway leading to the cottage. And while we're happy to have a chat and are just a phone call or a cooee away if you have a question, you can be assured of total privacy and uninterrupted vacation if that's your preference.
