About this property
Gingko Lodge. Country luxury with a view.
A delightful self contained Poured Earth building 500 metres from the East Gippsland Rail Trail and 3 minutes from the Great Alpine Way. An easy drive from Metung Hot Springs. Perfectly located to explore the area. Fully renovated with hand rendered walls, polished concrete floor, full kitchen, reverse cycle heating and cooling with the added luxury of a wood fired heater and a swish bathroom. Guests love the open plan design which creates an instant impact when you walk in. You will enjoy relaxing in the courtyard looking at the wonderful rural view. The wood fired Chiminea creates a romantic atmosphere for some awesome star gazing or to enjoy a glass of wine by. The large garden is perfect for spreading out a rug and relaxing while listening to the birds.
Mossiface is only 35 minutes from the Gippsland Lakes and the 90 mile beach at Lakes Entrance where you can enjoy the beach, takea cruise on the Lakes or try some fishing.
Guests love spending some time at the new Hot Springs complex Metung where you can enjoy soaking in the hot mineral filled water while admiring a wonderful view of the lakes. Check out the Pub and local shops while there.
East Gippsland is known for fishing with the choice of Lake, open sea and river fishing. If you have a boat the closest launching site is the Tambo River at Johnsonville, a mere 10 minutes away, where you can either stay in the river or motor into the lake system.
Take a day and travel up the Great Alpine Road to historic Omeo and the old gold fields. From Omeo you can continue on to Dinner Pain and Mount Hotham or wind your way home via Cassilis. Alternatively a trip to the quaint little town of Buchan and it's famous caves is well worth doing. Note that you need to pre book to take a caves tour.

Myself, my partner and our dog Bonti lived our stay at the Gingko Lodge. Our dog loved playing with Mae and the views were spectacular. Thanks for the lovely stay!
It was such a pleasure to stay at Ginko Lodge. The house was so comfortable and in a beautiful area of the Gippsland Lakes perfect for a getaway. We had our dog with us and that was absolutely no problem having her in the house. We found the hosts extremely accommodating and would recommend this place.
Super clean and amazing place! We had the best holiday here, very relaxing with superb views! It had everything that we needed, absolutely everything! Thanks Joy and Jeff!
Loved this poured-earth lodge, such cool and calm vibes, beautifully appointed and with a gorgeous outlook. Joy and Jeff were personable and welcoming, and we loved exploring this region
Awesome surroundings, very friendly and accommodating hosts. Everything we needed to make the stay comfortable and memorable was provided. Would definitely love to return!
I stayed for 2 nights with my dog Ringo and we both absolutely loved it. Great views and super close to the Gippsland Rail Trail if your into long walks. Super comfortable cabin with everything you need for a relaxing time away. Would definitely go back.
Gingko Lodge catered for all our needs, perfect location, stars at night were amazing.
Wonderful hosts, Joy & Jeff, and Mae the friendly dog.
Our dog Chester and ourselves had a wonderful, relaxed time, which we needed.
Ginkgo lodge was great. Perfect for a winter break. Cosy, clean and had everything you need to be comfortable. Lots of little touches to make it unique and the view from patio was lovely.
Great place to stay for peace and quiet. Stayed for 2 nights on our way to Melbourne. Hosts on site and really friendly. Greeted by the hosts dog when we arrived who made friends with our dog. We even saw a wombat in the garden. Would certainly stay again next time we travelled.
I spent delightful four nights at Gingko Lodge on a bit of a solo winter retreat (with my two dogs). It was a delightful, peaceful, comfortable and relaxing stay. The studio had a great wood fire, and north facing terrace was lovely to return home to each day after going out exploring. Definitely recommended.
We loved the accommodation, immediately aesthetically appealing and welcoming. Very cosy and clean. Warm, friendly and welcoming hosts, thanks so much for having us Joy and Geoff, and Mae of course, we loved meeting you. We will be back :)
