The master suite is more than a room; it's a sanctuary offering forest views through a gigantic window right from your bed – a living picture frame to the outside world. Other bedrooms are cozy realms – two with queen beds and one with a double bunk bed, a fortress of fun for kids. The sofa in the lounge also converts to a very comfortable queen bed. Now, step into our living room, a modern marvel with huge floor-to-ceiling windows. Here, you can immerse yourself in the beauty of the forest while enjoying a warm chat or a good book. It's a room where nature's beauty is your constant companion. Just a 1 min away from Sassafras and 6 min from Olinda, our home sits in the heart of Mount Dandenong, a perfect blend of accessibility and seclusion. And for those special moments, our outdoor dining area is a symphony of luxury and nature. Adorned with white tablecloths and able to accommodate ten guests, it's an ideal spot for birthday celebrations or weekend feasts. The well-equipped kitchen, complete with oven, dishwasher, and microwave, enables you to create memorable meals, blending gourmet indulgence with the natural splendor of the outdoors. Our living room is a tech-savvy forest den, boasting a 50-inch smart TV (hello, Netflix and Disney+ binges!), all perched on Roku's digital wings.

The house is climate-controlled, ensuring your comfort is as constant as the ever-watchful trees outside. Oh, and did we mention our feathered neighbors? A trio of kookaburras, the jesters of the bird world, are regulars here. They’ll perch nearby, serenading you with their wild melodies. Watch, but remember – these are nature's performers, not pets. Your enchanting retreat is ready. Minimum stay? Two nights of wonder. Arrival is at 4 pm; departure at 10 am. But be warned – leaving might just be the hardest part.

Immerse yourself in the verdant landscapes and explore iconic destinations such as the Pirianda Gardens, known for their exotic plant collections and tranquil pathways. Embark on a journey through the Sassafras Creek walking trail, where the chorus of native birds accompanies you, or challenge yourself with a trek to the summit of Mount Dandenong, offering breathtaking panoramic views. These trails provide the perfect backdrop for both leisurely walks and exhilarating hikes. Sassafras also invites culinary explorers to indulge in its array of charming cafes and gourmet eateries. Each venue offers a unique taste of local produce, coupled with cozy, inviting interiors that reflect the village's rustic charm. As twilight approaches, Sassafras reveals a different kind of beauty.

In Sassafras, every moment is an opportunity to connect with nature and enjoy the simpler pleasures of life. Other Things to Note: Walking through the woods on our property involves a steep descent, making the terrain quite challenging. We advise against crossing or playing in these sloped forested areas. In the heart of the forest, especially during spring and summer, insect repellents become essential – it's part of the natural experience! Friendly reminder that this house runs on septic. Please do not flush anything other than toilet paper. Thank you :) We ensure the decking is thoroughly cleaned after each guest's departure. However, as our home is nestled in the forest, leaves may naturally fall onto the deck. For your convenience, efficient brooms are available if you prefer to sweep away any leaves before enjoying this beautiful outdoor space. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. The cleaning fee included in your stay covers all professional cleaning services, as well as linen and laundry expenses. Please note, this fee does not extend to extraordinary cleaning tasks such as BBQ/oven cleaning, washing dirty dishes, rearranging moved furniture, removing stains from furniture, bedding, rugs or carpets, or additional rubbish removal. Guests may incur additional charges for these extra cleaning services." ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Onsite parking options include a garage ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator ### Bedrooms - 5 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Shower ### Living spaces - Fireplace ### Entertainment - Games - TV ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Garden - Property does not allow children ## Similar properties ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/123000000/122170000/122160300/122160243/a42e3eb2.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Cartref - Cartref - Home away from Home Mount Dandenong - Kitchen - Washing machine - Free Wi-Fi - Fireplace [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-15&endDate=2026-02-16&selected=122160243&PinnedHotelID=122160243&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/107000000/106570000/106566000/106565937/e06b4fe0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Hill top views, near wineries, sanctuary, main st Healesville - Kitchen - Washing machine - Air-conditioning - Outdoor space 10 Exceptional 7 reviews £195 includes taxes & fees 3 Feb - 4 Feb [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-03&endDate=2026-02-04&selected=106565937&PinnedHotelID=106565937&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Dining](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/89000000/88710000/88709100/88709050/02b41340.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Camellia Cottage - In the heart of picturesque Olinda (only 45 min from Melbourne CBD) is this little hideaway.
