Check in 3pm
Check out 10am

Enjoy your time in our semi-retro, pet friendly accommodation situated in the tranquil Sawmill Settlement only 3 km from the Mt Buller Resort Entry Gates. This accommodation is nestled in a quiet court, with the High Country on it's doorstep.
- Close to Mt Buller to enjoy day trips to the snowfields with a 20% discount available for ski, snowboard and snow suit hire from Black Mountain Ski hire, in the Mt Buller village.
- Only 25 minutes from Mansfield to enjoy what the township offers.
- Lake Eildon is 1/2 hr drive away for water sports.
- a great spot for motor bike or mountain bike riding in the high country or simply relax- and enjoy the fishing across the road in the Delatite River.
- Walking trails are close by with a local waterfall within walking distance for those that enjoy a 2 1/2 hour walk.
- Drive to the top of Mt Buller for some more challenging hikes or mountain bike trail riding outside snow season.

This single level, 4 bedroom cottage is set up to accommodate more than one family at a time. A perfect place for Summer or Winter and everything in between. Keep warm with the split system heating/cooling, Coonara wood heating and heating/fans in each bedroom depending on time of year. There is a separate purpose-built drying room to dry all the wet snow gear or motor bike gear after a wet ride. Bbq facilities are on a covered deck, double carport and plenty of parking space for vehicles. Television is satellite TV or there is a library of DVD's available for your use. If TV doesn't interest you, perhaps an evening of board games does. The benefit of being in a court means you can enjoy a game of street cricket or tennis (equipment stored in the first bedroom).

The main bathroom configuration works well with the bathroom sink, shower and toilet each enclosed in their own area within the one room. The second bathroom is an en-suite off a bedroom.

No pets during Winter season (June- October 2nd) as they would need to be locked inside the house, unattended while their family is at Mt Buller during the day. Happy to discuss individual needs.

The Telstra tower is close by so Mobile internet works for Telstra and Optus mobiles. No internet is connected at the house.

Linen and towels are supplied.
Hand sanitizer is provided in the kitchen and bathrooms.

All surfaces, including high-touch surfaces (eg door handles, remote controls etc) are sanitized as part of the cleaning process and carpets and couches are sprayed with disinfectant.

Loved it!
We had the best time staying at Mountain Lodge Sawmill Settlement. It had everything we needed plus more. It was lovely and warm and catered for the right amount of people. Even enough teaspoons for all!!! Tania was amazing to deal with. Highlight was the visit in the morning from the King parrots.

Perfect spot to head up onto the mountain
No long drive to head up to the mountain from here. Perfect location! The house was well equipped, functional and clean. Just what we needed. The drying room outside was a real bonus to dry out our wet ski gear. Very happy - can definitely recommend.

Snow Adventure
The property was great! host was patient and kind and answered all my questions. Her house was clean and had all the amenities and items we needed. She had board games for children and enough room for family and friends. The location was great, walking distance fro the bus stop going to Mt Buller. It snowed during the last day of our stay, which was magical for all of us.

Convenient location
Perfect location between Mansfield and the mountain its a great spot with everything you need. The dry room was great and it had plenty of beds for us all. I think the heating needs to be put up as at night it was quite cold for kida especially but thats the only downfall i can say. Also bring your own devices to watch reception and phone internet was perfect as the tv only has a few random chanels working.

Excellent location, lovely cosy home, perfect snow weekend
We stayed at this lovely cosy home for a family snow weekend away with two families, 4 adults and 6 kids. The home was perfect. Location was excellent, only minutes away from check in up the mountain. Located in a quiet lovely court, we loved sharing the property with the local Kookaburras and wildlife. Even skippy shared us a visit :) The home had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable and enjoyable. Kitchen was well stocked, lots of board games, darts, books to keep everyone entertained. The dry room was awesome and we used the 20% discount at the ski hire outlet at Mt Buller Village. Communication with the owner was also great, thank you. Would definitely return.

Great accommodation option for a snow trip
Very generous and effective dry room, especially for snow equipment. Since there are 4 bedrooms which can fit in a max of 12 ppl, it would be great if there is one more toilet in the property. If you require ski hire, they have 20% discount vouchers for Black Mountain Ski Hire, located in the Mt Buller village and this is definitely a bonus point for ppl who want to organise a snow trip. The owner should advertise this as a selling point in the description of the property:)

Snow trip
Accomodation was well stocked with all the little things you always forget. Great kitchen supplies meant we could eat how we normally cook as a family. Cabin was room so with 10 people in it you didn’t feel like you were on top of each other. Just a really good and homey place. We will book again.
