Within 2.5 – 3.0 hours Melbourne & close to essential services
Easily Accessible by normal family vehicles
Near the Snow & Sea
Wildlife friendly & beautifully treed
Peaceful & Serene
Over the next 20 years, Peter Johnson set about creating a property that delivered a lifestyle and income that harmonized with the setting he searched so long and hard for. He succeeded and the property and Wombat Valley Wild Country Cabins that stand today are testament to a dream that has been realized. Having built a new home in the area, Peter is retiring.
