Welcome to the Quiet Lake House! The ideal farm stay for vacationers who enjoy fishing, nature walks, and biking with their families. Behind the tiny house is a mountain where you can go mountain climbing and gaze out at the valley's mesmerizing white magic clouds.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Please advise that there will be other guests on the property— where a second tiny house sits on the same property. If you want to book in groups, you can contact the land host ahead of time to make arrangements.

The Space

Quiet Lake House is perched on 41 acres of land with a lake, creek, mountain, and vineyard. We have a vegetable farm for tomato and cucumber picking soon. It is the perfect family staycation for vacationers with a queen-sized bed up in the loft and a couch, which can be converted into a single bed on the ground floor. It has easy access to water, split air conditioning, a kitchenette, cooking equipment, and excellent bathroom facilities.

The bathroom follows ecologically sustainable principles, including a flushed toilet (connected to a septic tank), hand basin, and shower (gas heated for hot showers). It focuses on satisfying people's needs with natural resources and processes to save the environment.

If you plan to spend your farm stay getaways here, we advise that you bring your basic necessities such as food and water during your stay with us. Thank you.

Sounds great but unfortunately it was not. On reading previous reviews before booking it said the place was dirty and unkempt with a broken bbq. I asked if this was the case and was assured d that tho...se problems had been rectified.
Unfortunately they were not. The place had not been cleaned prior to our arrival. There was hair everywhere including the bed which most likely meant the linen was not changed. The bbq did not work and was filthy and rusted. The area around the place was fairly run down and there is a main road running directly across from the property so it is not as quiet and relaxing as advertised.
After explaining this to riparide they gave us a little refund but still had the cheek to charge us a cleaning fee even though we had to clean the property ourselves on arrival and also left it spotless on departure. Avoid

Beautiful spot in Flowerdale just down the road from the pub. Cosy, but with enough space to enjoy a few days away. Loved the electric boat. So much fun. Beautiful surroundings and great communication from host

The location was stunning, but the house was dirty when we arrived - toilet was not cleaned and filthy. Bbq was out of gas and hot plate didn't work, making it near impossible to cook. Such a shame. T...he owners gave us the cleaning fee back which was appreciated but unfortunately there were too many issues to recommend a stay.

Adventures Nearby

Here are some details about the adventures nearby. Refer to the map for their location.

Strath Creek Falls

This waterfall is located in Mount Disappointment State Forest. Follow the walk, which leads you to a beautiful view of the falls cascading 50 metres to the gully below. The perfect time to visit is after heavy rains.

Wombelano Falls

Wombelano Falls is located off Captains Creek Road in Kinglake National Park. The 1.5km circuit-walking track winds through forest with big old growth trees and leads to the falls viewing platform.

Mount Sugarloaf

Mt Sugarloaf is located at the end of Mt Sugarloaf Road and is accessible by car or via the Mt Sugarloaf Ridge Walking Track. The summit offers spectacular views to Melbourne.

Kinglake National Park

Most of Kinglake National Park is covered in eucalypt forest. If you look closely you will see many of the trees showing a green new growth along their trunks following the fire. Grass trees now have tall flowering spikes and tree ferns are bright with new growth. Slowly other species will regerminate including wattles, bush peas, heath, tussock grass and orchids.
