This was one of the most beautiful and unusual locations I have stayed in. You won't find modern conveniences, which would ruin the authenticity of the experience. The beds are wonderful, the bathroom beautiful and the scenery is outstanding. If you have an artistic soul this property is for you. There are plenty of DVD's and games but the true entertainment is the surroundings, the serenity and the quiet. Don't miss the opportunity to remove yourself from the modern world and enjoy the views.

I loved the hiking to Lake Elizabeth and Triplet Falls.
Also the Cape Otway Light Station was excellent.
The treetops walk and zipline also excellent.
You have to be prepared for 1 - 2 hour drives to get to some scenic sights as they are all spread around the region.
Make sure you are prepared for wet weather.

We changed our accommodation to the Light station studio which is perfect for 2. Our view was amazing. Such a peaceful and calm place to stay with the ocean view,beautiful green nature surrounding you and of course the Lighthouse. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

The location is stunning, Cape Otway is a great midway base along the great ocean road. Its easy to get to. Make sure to allow time for a wander and time to enjoy wine / cheese and watching the sunset. For an extra wow, get up and enjoy the sunrise! Next time we would stay at least a few nights.

Even though it appeared expensive to get the see a lighthouse.
The walks the building itself and other attractions take awhile, so it is not a quick trip. It will take some time to get the most of the experience
The cafe provided good food and the sighting of it meant you get a great view of the lighthouse as you eat.
The plaques are informative and we particularly enjoyed reading those to do with the 2nd.W.W.

Don’t book here unless you are prepared for a substandard experience in terms of how the house was presented. The flies were awful we had thousands every day coming down the chimneys which was a real health hazard. Kitchen utensils missing, bbq not working, kettle blew the fuse box the lust is endless . But we love lighthouses and the structure and ambience were still discernible but the management are doing NOTHING to enhance ones stay and, it’s $500 per night for which you expect somewhat more. Compared with somewhere like Gabo lighthouse there is just NO comparison - shame really

We stayed in an eco cabin. It had everything we needed. We was able to park the car next to the cabin. It was about a 40 min walk to the Cape Otway Light Station through fields and shrubbery. There are a few steps but is generally an easy walk. We went on the walk early on a spring morning and was plagued by lots of flies, so be prepared. The host in the office was flexible and gave us lots of useful tips for our onward journey. We saw lots of birds, a fox, kangaroos and a koala within an hour of getting there.

Gorgeous location !
Being able to stay there when everyone had left for the day and being able to walk around in the grounds. Also watching a sunset and getting fabulous photos with the coast and lighthouse. The lodge was very authentic and comfortable. The food was yummy for breakfast. All the people we dealt with on site were friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable.
A highlight for our trip was staying at Cape Otway.

Very friendly staff, my room was clean and had everything I needed. Location was perfect right in the Cape Otway Forest. And Koalas just outside our room. Literally the photo I have uploaded of my dad right next to a koala was taken about 100m away from our room in bimbi park

Great location for spotting koalas - we saw about half a dozen, including some with baby koalas. Also a nice starting point for a walk down to the cape otway lighthouse. Cabin was well equipped and warm.
