Our vintage forest cabin is perched above our pristine mountain stream set amidst a highly diverse indigenous botanical forest wetland. The cabin is entirely private with a large deck and extensive views of both of our mountain peaks. Hand built by owner over a period of two years, with hardwood floors throughout, hand waxed with beeswax polish from our own hives on the property. All wooden touch surfaces made of our own properties oak timber, finished with 100% natural Tung oil. Guests enjoy their own private access along their secluded forest path, numerous fruit trees abound with pears, apples, granadillas, figs, kumquat and bananas. The garden is entirely organic planted with raspberries, asparagus and lots of lettuce and a variety of salads leaves. The inbuilt deck BBQ includes a smoker, a variety of seasoned woods, from blackwood, oak, plum and red gum are available, keeping any would be mountain man busy for the evenings fare. Inside a vintage Nestor Martin canon style wood stove provides ample warmth on the chilly nights of the year and for those brave guests to cook atop. Guests are welcome to prepare salads and snacks from the garden's produce and also collect seed
We like to do hikes in the different trails in the area, as well as explore the coastline, collect mussels and cook them by the beach. PRIOR ARRANGEMENT IS ESSENTIAL AND A MUST FOR PETS. REQUEST IN WRITING ABOUT SIZE/TYPE.CHARGES MAY APPLY(FEE PER PET/CLEANING/DAMAGE ETC
Storms River Village is a little quaint gem in the Garden Route. A place for the adventures, either canopy, tubing, bungee jumping and so much more.
