LYREBIRD LOOKOUT a Tiny Home at Forrest, a mountain forest retreat in Olinda | Cabin in Olinda

Discover Lyrebird Lookout @ Forrest, a hidden gem perched atop a wee mountain in lush Olinda, Victoria. This haven offers breathtaking forest mountain views, creating a seamless connection between the cabin and the sprawling naturescape below.
Architecturally designed, the cabin boasts a unique feature – no lofts. With bright warm timber interiors, it aims to provide a grounded retreat from the harsh Australian sun. The absence of a bedroom loft allows for a spacious feel and a better tiny house experience.
The well-appointed kitchen is a focal point, equipped with a fridge, freezer cooker, and a stocked pantry for your convenience.
Step into the bathroom, where you'll notice the intentional omission of a toilet within the tiny house. Fear not, as shared flushing toilets are nearby at the blue water tank. This ensures comfort without sacrificing space. Your private shower provides a tranquil escape without the need to wander the property in just a towel.
As evening falls, immerse yourself in the cozy ambiance of the indoor fireplace. Explore various light settings and, weather permitting, ignite a campfire down the timber steps or enjoy the glamping tent on wet days. The tent offers a unique retreat with board games, guitar and dress-ups for stormy situations.
The property's water source, fed by an underground natural spring, echoes the Wurundjeri tradition of bathing for healing and cleansing. Don't forget to bring a jug to take home this natural elixir.
Nestled in the Dandenong mountain, the land features towering Mountain Ash trees and ancient ferns. Cloudy days create a surreal landscape, white wisps of clouds look like brushstrokes against the vibrant green backdrop. Take a moment to explore the forest floor adorned with various fungi species, chestnuts and yabby holes adding a touch of magic to your surroundings.
Wildlife enthusiasts will delight in rare encounters with yabbies, wombats, echidnas, Superb Lyrebirds, possums, fallow deer, a black wallaby, kookaburras, and a colorful array of parrots and parakeets.
