Lorne Holiday Stays

River Houses 1 & 2

20/02/2026 12:29:29

For years, River House 1 and 2 have been guest favourites
with Lorne Holiday Stays — and it’s easy to see why. River House 1 was recently
recognised in the Urban List as one of the “Top 9 Best Lorne
Stays,” a testament to its charm and appeal.



Set amongst beautiful native bushland beside the
picturesque Erskine River, these inviting holiday homes offer the
perfect balance of seclusion and convenience. Enjoy private river frontage
while being just a relaxed five-minute stroll from the heart of town.



The properties have their own private walking track, a
"flat" 5 - minute walk straight into town.  Guests can enjoy a
leisurely stroll along the Erskine River, which leads directly to the
supermarket or to Riverbank Cafe for an early morning coffee, both just 400m
away.  Head in the opposite direction along the track, and you'll arrive
at the stunning Erskine Rapids within minutes. 



We’re also excited to welcome your four-legged family
members. With both the beach and river only moments away, there’s plenty of
space for pets to explore and enjoy the holiday alongside you.  For
larger groups, you now have the option to book both River House 1 and 2
together — comfortably accommodating up to eight guests (plus pets!). It’s the
ideal setting for families or friends looking to create lasting memories in
beautiful Lorne.



To make your stay even more special, we provide firewood
year-round and a complimentary bottle of wine on arrival.
