A Perfect Getaway at Kooka Cottage Our stay at Kooka Cottage was absolutely wonderful! From the moment we arrived, we felt right at home. The cottage is incredibly spacious, making it perfect for relaxing as a couple or enjoying time with family or friends. Each room is thoughtfully laid out, and the entire space is filled with natural light and charming, cozy touches. The comfort level was beyond expectations the wood heater kept the place nice and warm, the living area inviting, spotless and well-maintained. We especially loved how well-equipped the kitchen was, allowing us to prepare meals easily and enjoy them in the lovely dining area or outside on the patio. Kooka Cottage strikes the perfect balance between modern comfort and rustic charm. It's an ideal retreat for anyone looking to unwind, recharge, and enjoy a peaceful stay in beautiful surroundings, also it’s only 30 minutes from Mt Buller. We can’t wait to come back!

Relaxing

Possibly the most relaxing property I have stayed at in Australia. Plenty of space, cutlery, and amenities for 4 x people. Chris, Kelly and Casey were so easy to deal with. The location and property was amazing. Absolutely will come back, and highly recommend to anyone looking to completely relax and enjoy nature in comfort.

Long weekend escape with my Husband & dog

Very cute spacious cottage. Upon arriving at the property and opening my car door I was instantly relaxed and able to breathe in the precious smell of the bush mountain air. We quickly unpacked our things and I heading straight for the balcony to relax in the fabulous hammock with a glass of wine. Nice little touches were the kookaburra food which was mainly eaten by the cockatoos however we were very excited to see a Kookaburra on our last day not long before we departed. really enjoyed our little getaway.

5 star stay in this amazing little cottage.

Spent an amazing 5 days in this beautiful little cottage. The cottage was warm and welcoming with a beautiful wild life presence in the area. We had a quiet environment which was only a short drive to the gates of Mt Buller. Most definitely will be back!

Loved staying at this accommodation. Directions via email a bit confusing, please read email correctly. Loved Owly decor touches and warm, cosy, good feel of cottage. Loved games for the children in lounge Only wondered why there was no blinds on the living room windows? Did not like the thought of peek-a-boos. Would definitely go there again and recommend for families though as this is so close to Mount Buller gates. Loved it 👍

The property was as discribed, fit our family of 6 very well. Loved the warm and cosy environment

Would highly reccomend this property, it was clean and tidy and had enough room for our family. The children loved seeing the animals, mainly birds and the possum as we were there in winter. Was warm and cosy and just perfect to come back to after a day on the snow.
