Great value for money and excellent locations
Only gripes: Little bit musty smell, may need some air fresheners in there. May need better air conditioning also if it was really hot.
Otherwise a great stay, the outdoor space is wonderful.
Really nice and cosy cabin. Great location with only a short walk to the shops and literally across from the swimming lake area. Only wish the weather was warmer so I could enjoy the lake more. Property was fully secure too for my dog.
It was the right kind of place we were looking for with our two young grandsons. The facility was perfectly functional and the location was outstanding. The boys were so excited to stay in a 'cabin'. We were pleased because there was little they could break. We all want to come back again. In addition, the place was easy to find and leave. Thank you for a great holiday.
The lounge/dining/kitchen area is small for a 2 bedroom . The bathroom sliding door has small nails poking out from the edge of the door . The frypans need replacing as one is very badly cut into. However the outside area and position of the house is lovely . Also appreciated the electric blanket as it was quite cold at night .
We always have the most wonderful time when staying in Creswick, it really has become our little familys holiday destination and we love MTB riding. Our 2 jack russell live coming and so many places for them to explore. The house is great and Ian is so easy to deal with. Will definitely be back for our fourth time.
Pet friendly, close to town, walking paths, john Curtin Aged Care etc. Prrfect property for a summer stay and eating out. I found it disappointing that the refrigerator was smaller than needed ie we brought food for our 5 night stay and there wasn"t a washing machine as we needed to do a load due to weather. The double bed was found to be extremely hard although we dod not have an issue with the bunk beds.
Great stay, great location and pet friendly. Highly recommend.

Lovely little place, amazing outdoor area with the veiws of the lakes.
Excellent garden with paths etc, my son loved finding all the garden statues of animals. We were all very comfortable and happy.
Gorgeous Cabin, such a cute view. Exactly what I needed with our small family. I'd love to go back one day. And we absolutly fell in love with the charm of Creswick
A gorgeous, clean, very affordable, peaceful cottage. In walking distance to shops and across from a lovely lake. Plenty of room for the dog too. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and Ian was very contactable.
Easy drive to Daylesford and Ballarat.
Will definitely be coming back.
A quaint little cottage overlooking a great location, a little smaller than we are used to, but manageable. We saw the photos of the front door with the step steps, but we assumed that there would be a back door entrance, but unfortunately not, so a struggle getting our luggage and a slightly disabled person up and down the stairs. But overall it was good.
For a cold stay the faux log fire is brilliant. View from the balcony very relaxing. Easy access to town or sight seeing. quiet .old retro look works well. Would stay here again
