Escape to our cozy 2-bedroom Hamptons Coastal inspired cabin and bask in the comforts of home while surrounded by the tranquility of a serene bush setting with stunning views of Lake King. Unwind on the deck with a glass of wine as you watch boats sail by, or gather around the fire pit at night to toast marshmallows while stargazing. Indulge in a culinary experience in Metung Village, just a short 5-minute drive away, or head to Lakes Entrance for fresh seafood straight off the boat, only 20 minutes away. For those seeking adventure, hire a boat, kayak or SUP, or book an Eco Cruise. A visit to the Buchan Caves and Bullant Brewery is also a must. The main bedroom features a plush queen size bed adorned with the softest linen and a charming window seat perfect for watching the incredible sunsets. The second bedroom, our cozy bunk room, boasts a double bed with a single overhead and a functional desk space that provides water views for those who need to work during their stay. Our open-plan kitchen and living area are comfortably sized and well-appointed with an oven, stove top, dishwasher, and coffee machine - everything you need to make your stay feel like a home away from home. The European laundry offers a washing machine, iron, ironing board, and washing powder for your convenience. We supply towels and linen for the confirmed number of guests, as well as shampoo, conditioner, soap, and a hairdryer. Stay warm and cozy in winter with our split system heating and newly installed electric wood heater, and cool off in summer with the same system that provides cooling. Relax outside in our outdoor lounge or fire up the BBQ and enjoy a glass of wine while taking in the stunning views. We provide wood for the fire pit, so you can toast marshmallows and make s'mores to your heart's content. Our smart TVs in the bedrooms and living area provide movie, music, and social media entertainment, and Netflix is included for your viewing pleasure.
Welcome to 'Our Metung Stays'! My name is Paula and I am thrilled to be your host. I live in Melbourne with my husband, three young adults, and our two beloved dogs. Metung and the Gippsland Lakes region hold a special place in our hearts, which is why we decided to build our beautiful Cabin and Cottage to share with friends, family, and guests like you. Our goal was to create comfortable homes that allow you to truly relax in nature and soak up the stunning surroundings, whether you are visiting in the summer or winter. You can curl up in a warm blanket in the window seat of the master bedroom at Lakeview Retreat Metung and watch the water change colors as boats pass by, or you can cozy up in front of the fire at Mountford Cottage. Both homes offer a unique experience that will make your stay unforgettable. We believe our homes tie in well with the new Metung Hot Springs experience, which opened in November 2022. We will soon be offering packages that include access to the hot springs, so ask us for more information. We are committed to providing our guests with the best possible experience during their stay. Whether you need recommendations for local restaurants or tips on the best places to explore in the area, we are always here to help. We hope you enjoy your stay at 'Our Metung Stays' and create unforgettable memories.
