About this property

Relax In Taylor Bay Lake Eildon

This holiday house is a log cabin which has recently been renovated. Situated on an acre of land on Right Arm Road in Taylor Bay, there are magnificent views of the countryside and a partial view of the lake. Lake access is only 800 metres away, further down Right Arm Road, and you can launch and moor your boat there, or you may choose to launch at the public concrete boat ramps at Eildon, Jerusalem Creek or Fraser National Park.

Access to the block is excellent for boats up to 22 feet and there is room to park your boat. Access for larger boats will depend on vehicle and trailer configuration. Please feel free to discuss with us.
If towing a boat we recommend a 4WD or AWD. If you are not towing a 2WD is fine.

Outside you can relax on the front deck, lounge in the hammocks and deck chairs, take in the views and enjoy the wildlife including parrots, rosellas and cockatoos. We supply bird seed and the birds will happily feed from your hand. We have a BBQ and a large outdoor setting. There is a back verandah with plenty of room for your fishing or water ski gear.

Pets are welcome outside however the property is not fenced.

The house comprises two bedrooms. The main bedroom has a queen sized bed with a full size robe and direct access to the deck. The second bedroom has two bunk beds fitted with new mattresses sleeping five (1 double & 3 singles). All beds are fitted with electric blankets, mattress protectors, doonas and pillows. Please supply your own linen and bath towels.

All windows are fitted with block out roller blinds and the walls are decorated with prints of local attractions.

The kitchen is fully appointed with a dishwasher, fridge, oven, electric cook top and microwave together with a toaster, kettle, wok and sandwich press. The pantry is stocked with tea and coffee supplies together with basic food items which you are welcome to use.

The lounge room is large and comfortably seats all guests on two couches and an arm chair. It has full length windows to capture the views of the countryside. There is a collection of board games for you to use. We have satellite TV and we offer free Wi Fi. There is a reverse cycle air conditioner for instant heating in Winter and cooling in Summer. The house has an open fire which is available to those guests who are experienced with setting a fire but you will need to supply your own wood.

The bathroom has been fully renovated and contains a walk in shower and brand new facilities.

Eildon township is 10 minutes away and Fraser National Park is about a 15 minute drive. Activities in the area include the obvious fishing and water skiing but also four wheel driving, motor bike riding, bush walking, cycling and sightseeing.

Early check in and late check out are often possible and will be confirmed a few days prior to your stay.

Perfect Retreat by the Bay

Most beautiful place, felt like home. Only a few minutes into town. Up the road 2 minutes drive down a dirt track (4x4 would be recommended) best spot for fishing. However not much shade. Home itself, is perfect! All amenities, fireplace and the birds are just amazing to watch. Would have loved to stay longer.

Relaxing Family Time

This is our second time staying in this property, and we are planning to come back soon… it’s just the perfect setting to disconnect from the busy rutine, relax and enjoy real, meaningful family time. The house is comfortable, cozy and sorrounded by beautiful nature, we actually enjoy staying in more than anything else. The area in general is beautiful and nice for bike riding with young kids!

Serene Escape to Eildon Lake

Staying at the Relax-In cozy cottage was an absolute delight! Nestled in a picturesque landscape and Eilden Lake, it was the perfect retreat from the hustle and bustle. The warm, inviting interior featured a crackling fireplace and comfortable furnishings, making evenings incredibly relaxing. 90km away from Mansfield town, the mist-covered surroundings added a magical touch, and mornings were a joy with stunning views of the winter wonderland right outside the patio with welcoming colourful parrots ready to eat off your hands. The hosts were supportive and thoughtful, ensuring every detail was attended to. It was a serene escape that left us feeling rejuvenated and grateful for such a charming winter getaway to Mt. Buller. It is highly recommended for a peaceful retreat!

Tayloy bay cabin

The cabin was well appointed, roomy and comfortable. However the outside left a lot to be desired, overgrown weeds, overflowing gutters onto deck area and generally unkept. It was relief to walk inside and see it didnt mirror the outside.

Nice cabin

Property was as described in the listing and host was easy to contact and very friendly. Had everything I needed in the accommodation. My only issue was the driveway - it was raining during my stay and driveway was more suited to a 4wd when wet. Had new tyres on my small car but was quite slippery driving up it. Lovely quiet area but no mobile phone service. Wouldn't be an issue normally but I was travelling with just my dog so felt a bit uneasy.
