Magnificent views

We loved staying at Gone Surfin' - the views are amazing, the decks lovely places to relax & unwind in nature/soak up some sun and lots of space for the dog to explore and sniff. Also lots of things to do nearby which helps with teens. We will come back. 😊

Beautiful vista of nature and wildlife

We loved the central location to explore the Great Ocean Road. Being in the hills was nice. Please note that the closest town is small with one general store with coffee shop and one nice restaurant. So planning most meals while driving is best for this location. House was roomy.

Hello Wendy! Yes we are remote. Petrol is available in Yatzies from 8am-4pm - 7 days a week (7 minutes away from house). But Apollo Bay is just 35-40 minutes drive for all supplies if staying longer. Colac about 50 minutes - all shops including Aldi, Bunnings etc. I hope You enjoyed our house. Thank You for leaving it spotless!!!! I hope to see you again! Margaret

About the host

Hosted by Margaret and Rafal

Host profile image
We love Otways. We moved here for good a year ago and never looked back. Still visiting Melbourne regularly but home is here in Yuulong...

Why they chose this property

Our son Bart brought us here to see him surfing. And the rest is a history... We never thought that the people would be so amazing in welcoming us here... Just wonderful part of Australia...

What makes this property unique

The House and the property is so easy to love. Very comfortable and enjoyable, especially now when seclusion is preferable and desirable. The alone walks along Great Ocean Walk are amazing and wildlife/visitors such as Kangaroos and lots lots of Birds! Beautiful all kinds of Birds. The kids will enjoy a huge garden. Pets also are most welcome!
