Surfdogz was very comfortable and felt homely for my wife, myself and our dog. I would highly recommend this property to stay at. We will definitely look to staying there again in the future.
The inside of the property was very welcoming. The decor, bedding and facilities were all good and a bottle of vino and milk in the fridge were a bonus. No cooking facilities but we knew that. Outside of the property not so welcoming. The house looks a bit run down and entry/yard was quite muddy. It needs an overhaul. We loved Lorne but the house is not walkable to town as it is on a steep hill, like most houses in Lorne. We just went out for the day and returned late afternoon.

Thank you for your feedback Bronwyn. Im sorry you found the outdoor area "run down" and the position of the apartment rendering it not walkable. Rather than sound defensive i have simply included the review from the guest that stayed immediately before you .
"Great little place to stay in lorne with your dog. Close walking distance to the beach and town. Great little outdoor area for the dog as well. Can recommend :)"
Surf dogz Lorne was absolutely delightful and so welcoming for us and our furbaby. Everything was provided for and great communication during the stay and leading up to it. Highly recommend.
Perfect for weekend surfside getaway with the pooch
Stayed here with girlfriend and dogs, met all expectations! Very dig friendly, comfortable bed, close enough to beach and local cafes!

Thanks for the positive review and also for the neat and tidy state in which you left the apartment. It was certainly appreciated and we look forward to having you stay sometime in the future
Great stay, easy check in process with clean rooms and secure backyard for dog. The location was close to the Main Street but up quite a big hill if you plan on walking, besides that everything was wonderful!
The property was lovely and clean, the host was wonderful to deal with. He also allowed us to check in earlier.If your looking for a place to relax this is it, your in a beautiful part of Lawn.If there is one thing that we would have loved to have had in the unit would have been to have a electric pan as we love having a cooked breakfast when we are away.We loved our stay and will deffintely be back.
The apartment was great, cozy, very clean, quiet and had everything we needed for our Stay. It's a lovely place for a short stay in Lorne, would use it again. Quiet neighborhood
Our first holiday away with our dog - and it couldn't have gone better! A fabulous place to take your pet away on holiday and enjoy all that beautiful Lorne has to offer. Will definitely be back :)

Thank you Leanne. We look forward to you visiting us again
The property was exactly as listed, very clean and in a great neighbourhood close to beach and shops. Our furry baby had a great time. The attention to detail was unmatched.
Lovely secure pet friendly accommodation. The owner was very responsive to any queries or requests. Simple, tasteful, no fuss layout that suited both us and our dogs needs for a short stay.
Welcoming and cozy unit, very clean and well decorated
