We loved staying at Gone Surfin' - the views are amazing, the decks lovely places to relax & unwind in nature/soak up some sun and lots of space for the dog to explore and sniff. Also lots of things to do nearby which helps with teens. We will come back. 😊

Beautiful vista of nature and wildlife

We loved the central location to explore the Great Ocean Road. Being in the hills was nice. Please note that the closest town is small with one general store with coffee shop and one nice restaurant. So planning most meals while driving is best for this location. House was roomy.
