The property is an animal rescue sanctuary. Guest can feed and pat the friendly animals. Enjoy the snort from our free range pig Petunia or the lick of a rough cow tongue from Paint the Jersey. Maybe Kobee the Water Buffalo will catch your attention. If this is a bit much then you can simply pat the sheep, horses, cats, dogs or Jupiter and Maverick the goats. Or maybe laze around the camp fire while the kids jump on the trampoline.

91 Gordons Bridge Road was once part of a pine plantation that had been planted in the late 60's and harvested just prior to the Black Saturday fires. Across the road from the Kinglake National Park, it is surrounded by protected flora and fauna. Victoria's Pink heath, wattles and tea tree provide a pleasant backdrop in season.
It is not an uncommon site to see an echidna or two on the property, with black wallabies, kangaroos and wombats often seen grazing on pasture in the evening. The mud turrets are the home of endangered land yabbies and Lyrebirds have been seen in the area. Feral deer have come to inhabit nearby properties and sometimes wonder down the track. Birds watchers will enjoy a variety of bird life that inhabit the area including eagle hawks, fairy wrens, kookaburras, rosellas, parrots and yellow tailed black cockatoos when in season.
The area is a popular spot for hikers with the start of the Mountain Creek trail only a few kms down Gordons Bridge Road and serious cyclists train regularly, on Mount Slide, especially on the weekend. For the serious wine lover the property is within 15km of the Yarra Valley Wine Growing area with many wineries offering tastings.

We had a pleasant stay at Mountain Flower Farm, right next to Kinglake, about an hour from Melbourne, and dog-friendly. The property had a peaceful vibe with an immersive morning mist, which was a lovely experience. The price maaaaybe a bit steep given the fire pit being offline (fire ban), and the property being a bit scrappy in places. The number of horse flies was a bit of a surprise too! As experienced hosts ourselves, we see it as a budget-friendly option with room for improvement, a very viable option if needing access to Melbourne or Kinglake.

Beautiful property, access to the billabong is a little walk down the hill but not far. Great spot for large groups. Ground isnt very level for RTTs so bring something to help level if you need it. There was some old planks there for firewood that I used. When I booked it was forecast for 45 degrees so the owner agreed to refund one of the nights.
