The Lazy Prospector

Overview

The Lazy Prospector - a cabin for curious souls.

Dreaming of trading traffic and to-do lists for towering trees and mountain views? Tasmania’s wild West Coast is calling - and The Lazy Prospector is your perfect base to answer it.

Tucked away in the historic town of Zeehan, this warm and welcoming cabin is the ultimate basecamp for solo travellers and couples chasing adventure - or simply craving a little peace and quiet. Hike ancient rainforests, ride rugged mountain bike trails, or just kick back and let the wilderness work its magic.

The cabin itself is all about slow living and simple comforts. Soak in the deep bath, curl up by the wood fire with a book, or swing gently on the daybed while taking in the sweeping views. Mornings might bring curious wallabies and the gentle calls of native birds-nights, a sky full of stars.

Whether you’re coming to recharge, reset, or roam, The Lazy Prospector is more than a place to stay. It’s a pause button, a deep breath, and a chance to reconnect-with nature, and maybe yourself.

The Lazy Prospector

An ideal central base for two to explore Tasmania’s rugged west coast, and the perfect place to relax after a day of hiking, biking or sightseeing. Full of craftsmanship, The Lazy Prospector is a celebration of yesteryear, with all the modern conveniences. Beautifully restored 130-year-old barn wood features add a rustic charm that calm and soothe. To ensure your stay is comfortable and memorable, enjoy a plush queen size bed; a sofa large enough for two adults to stretch out in front of the wood fire heater; a deep soak bath; a fire pit and back verandah with views across to Mount Dundas. You may even be serenaded by local kookaburra's, or see wallabies feeding near the cabin at dusk and dawn. Our minimal kitchen has a bar fridge, an induction plug-in cooktop, a convection microwave oven, slow cooker, kettle, toaster and a basic pantry. If you have the inner callings for adventure, but love your creature comforts, The Lazy Prospector is for you. And after a day of exploring, and a couple of nights of deep sleep, you'll feel refreshed and ready to take on the world.
