Log House Tara in Kolašin

Log House Tara is a two-level wooden cabin near Kolašin in Montenegro's northern mountains, offering 115 m² of space for 7–9 guests. The ground floor holds the living room, dining area and kitchen, with a patio just outside; upstairs are three bedrooms and a covered terrace looking out over the mountains and the river below. It sits 2.5 km from the centre of Kolašin, so shops and restaurants are a short drive away, and 6 km from the Jezerine Ski Center, which makes it practical for winter trips as well as summer walking and rafting in the Tara region. The house comes fully equipped: a fireplace, TV with satellite channels, DVD player, music system, dishwasher, washing machine, and all bed linens and bathroom amenities provided. Its size and separate living levels suit larger families or two or three couples travelling together who want a self-catering base rather than a hotel.

About the area

The lane running up toward the Kolašin 1450 ski centre climbs out of town through pasture and conifer, and this is one of the addresses along it — about two and a half kilometres from the centre, six from the Jezerine slopes. The Kolašinska river runs close by, and a well-regarded traditional restaurant is within walking distance, so the immediate area covers the two things a mountain stay usually needs: quick access to the lifts and somewhere to eat lamb and kačamak afterwards without getting back in the car.

In winter this road is the artery of the town's ski traffic, with the older Kolašin 1450 runs threading through forest and the newer, gondola-served Kolašin 1600 area higher on Bjelasica. Snow cover here is reliable and often deep well into spring. The rest of the year the same slopes become hiking and mountain-biking ground, and the valley opens toward Biogradska Gora National Park, thirty-odd minutes away, where the lake circuit runs under untouched beech. The Tara canyon — among the deepest in the world and UNESCO-protected — supplies the summer rafting, and the drive there follows the Tara valley north through Mojkovac.
