About this property

Nestled in the serene tranquility of Lorne, Victoria, welcome to our Groovy Log Summer House—a homely, pet-friendly retreat with the perfect blend of chic and rustic charm. Free WIFI, fresh linen, and an easy stroll to the beach, we've got everything covered for your dream getaway.
As you step into our log cabin, be ready to soak in an atmosphere of calm, with the forest as your backyard. Just take a deep breath and let the worries of the world slip away in this unique oasis.

Perfectly positioned, we are a gentle walk away from Swing Bridge Beach—the perfect spot for a morning breakfast or an evening paella paired with sangria. Iconic attractions such as Teddy’s Lookout and Erskine Falls are easily accessible, and the sun-kissed beaches of Lorne are close at hand. For the adventurous spirits, the Great Ocean Road and the enchanting Otway Ranges are just a short drive away.

In the mood for a round of golf? Our backyard is almost an extension of the local golf course—a sanctuary for golfers during the day and a spectacle for children in the evening as it becomes a haven for the local kangaroos.

Step into our homely log cabin and discover an environment where rustic design meets stylish comfort. Our cabin boasts bespoke furniture, Marimekko and Country Road furnishings, and can comfortably sleep five guests in our two-bedroom set-up. The master bedroom features a queen-sized bed, and the second bedroom offers a queen/king single bunk.

Our kitchen is well-equipped and the pantry comes stocked with all essentials for your convenience. The open plan living and dining area provides a perfect setting for memorable family gatherings. As the day winds down, immerse yourself in entertainment with our smart TV, or enjoy a relaxing evening listening to your favourite vinyls on our stunning Danish record player.

We provide all linen (just BYO beach towels) and are happy to arrange a high chair and porta cot upon request. We welcome your stay with a complimentary bottle of wine and chocolates. Please note that while we love furry friends, we kindly request no pets on the beds or furnishings.

We also offer a secured, fenced area at the back of the house to keep pets.

Come, get back to nature, and let your stresses melt away in our charming Groovy Log Summer House.

For extended stays, multiple family accommodations, or queries, please feel free to reach out directly to Vicky Solopotias. Check out more stunning properties under our Beach Getaways Victoria portfolio, including another charming home just down the street—Whispering Gums.

SORRY NO SCHOOLIES

We are happy to accommodate your fur babies, but please note this is a quality home and we request no pets on beds or furnishings.

Great location, perfect for the weekend

We were only in lorne for a short time and it was the perfect homebase. Had all the basics covered and a great vibe. Bit of extra lighting would be a good addition but other than that a totally pleasant stay.

A little rundown and disappointing

For the money I paid for this accommodation (considerably more than advertised) I was quite disappointed. I think it is commendable that the property is available to accommodate pets however I personally think it would be more hygienic to not have carpet throughout the house. It was comfortable enough but there are things that need attention (no working light in second bedroom, laundry and toilet door do not shut). Also, if you are charging a cleaning fee, I think it’s fair to expect the place to be really clean (cobwebs in the toilet, pet hair on bedside table, musty smell on all the tea towels, plus more) If I had paid the advertised price I may be more forgiving but to charge double I honestly feel ripped off.

Vicky approaches the task of looking after your property from a business perspective, while never forgetting that at the heart of a good business is a happy customer – the guests at your holiday home.

An early experience of having her own property poorly managed helped shape Vicky’s approach and clarify how to ensure a holiday guest has a great stay, and wants to come back again and again.

Her property, Killy Views, was the first short-term rental property in Kilcunda. Since then, Vicky has taken on other properties, and built a formidable organic clientele base, with some impressive statistics:
