Sweetwater Cottage. A mountain retreat, just near the Rail Trail for riding.

Sweetwater – Rustic Mountain Cottage in the Burringbar Headwaters
Tucked deep in the hills above Burringbar, Sweetwater is a restored settler's cottage with over a century of stories in its timber. Surrounded by forest, spring water, and quiet country air, it’s the kind of place where time slows down and nature does most of the talking.

🌄 The Experience
Sweetwater is rustic in the best way — simple, peaceful, and deeply connected to the land. Wake to the sound of birds in the valley, wander kilometer's of private trails, and breathe in the cool air that rolls down from the ridges. At sunset, the hills glow gold and the verandah becomes the perfect place to settle in with a drink and watch the day fade.

Inside, the cottage keeps its old soul: creaking boards, original features, and a wood fire ready for cooler nights. It’s a place to read, rest, cook, and reconnect with the quiet.

🌾 Nature All Around
The property is alive with birdlife and native animals. Trails wind through forest and open ridges, Platypus have visited the creek in the past, and the bush shifts beautifully with the seasons.
