About this property

Maeburn Cottages - Self-contained Lakeside Getaway

  • Where else in the world can you visit the Hotsprings on one day, wine and dine in the Village, walk/swim by the beach, go boating/fishing and play a round of golf the next ? Maeburn Cottages in Metung.

    Whether you require relaxation and privacy, a romantic getaway, family holiday, a boating / fishing / golfing trip, or a one night stopover, Maeburn Cottages has it all ! The ideal lakeside country retreat for couples, families and friends.

    Enjoy a GREAT stay in beautiful Metung all year round.

    Maeburn Cottages are located a short stroll to the pristine waters of Lake King in Metung, an up-market fishing village on the shores of the spectacular Gippsland Lakes in East Gippsland Victoria, which form the largest inland waters in Australia.

    2 min drive to Metung Village. Local shops include a general store, pharmacy, post shop real-estates and Seven Sundays boutique ladies clothing, METUNG pub on the water, bakery, takeaway, wood fired pizza, Aroma Greek restaurant, great coffee shops and florist.

    Farmers market on the Village Green on the second Sat morning of each month.

    15min drive to Aldi in Lakes Entrance Footbridge to the surf and 30min to Bairnsdale.

    The property is set in an acre of established gardens, amidst native trees that play home to a large number of rare bird species. Indeed a twitchers paradise. Enjoy identifying more than 130 varieties of birdlife.

    The family-style holiday cottages are positioned for privacy and offer quality furnishings throughout with your comfort in mind.

    Plenty of adjacent parking with ample room for the boat and trailer. Each cottage has a ramp for easy access.

    Maeburn's lakeside retreat truly is a home away from home.

    The Lakes promote numerous water sports, such as sailing regattas, safe boating, fishing competitions (e.g. The Bream Classic), kayaking, windsurfing waterskiing and jet skiing.
    Explore the Lakes by ferry or book an Eco-cruise to see the seals and dolphins.

    Other outdoor pursuits include, hiking trails, bush walking, cycling and golf. We are just around the corner from the prestigious Ted Parslow architect designed resort-style Kings Cove Golf Course (visitors welcome) the
    Metung Country Club and Hot Springs.
    Also 2 hours to the snow (Mt Hotham)

    Short walk (10-15min) to the swimming beach and Metung Village Cafes and shops.
    Take a relaxing stroll with your pooch along the shores of scenic Lake King via Beach Rd and marvel at the magnificent sunset.
