With a king size bed, a cosy living room with a log fire, a spa bath and a fully equipped kitchen Cottage in the Forest provides the perfect setting for your next intimate getaway.
Set on an acre of forested land, between the villages of Olinda and Sassafras, and surrounded by towering trees and the sweet sounds of the local birdlife, Cottage in the Forest will give you all the tranquility and privacy that you desire for an intimate mountain getaway.
In walking distance to Olinda Village and a short drive to Mt Dandenong and local attractions, Cottage in the Forest, is ideally located for exploring everything the Dandenongs has to offer.

Summary of reviews
Amazing views, relaxing atmosphere, great location for dining out, perfect for getaway and celebrations.
8.0 / 10.0
I stayed here after my wedding night, the check in could be a lot better as we did not receive the key code and had to stand outside the property at 11pm calling for the code, other than that it was a beautiful cottage, great views and peaceful.
The drive way is extremely steep so a sedan might struggle.

We absolutely loved our stay, everything was perfect. The only negative thing was we didn't receive the key safe code email to get in and were stranded until the phone was answered. 5 stars otherwise.
