Welcome to Pine Hill

An old stone house between forest and mountain

Pine Hill is a one-hundred-year-old family house in Gračac, set between lush forests and the Velebit and Resnik mountains. You rent the whole property — four bedrooms, a full kitchen, a spacious living room, and a fenced garden with a seasonal pool and a covered garden house.

I grew up with this house and now share it with guests. You check in on your own schedule with the lockbox, and I am a message away when you need me. — Josip

Pool & garden

The garden ends at a dry-stone wall

One of the few places in the area with a pool — open seasonally, around the clock, with a new covered garden house beside it. The long table seats six for dinners outside, and the barbecue corner by the stone wall does the rest.

The whole garden is fenced, so children and pets can roam. Goals, a swing and an archery target are already waiting on the lawn.

Mist, mushrooms and quiet trails
