Family holiday
We had a wonderful weekend away with our family, heaps to do and the house was lovely. Parking was a bit difficult due to the weather but overall a small inconvenience for a wonderful warm, clean and beautiful house with lovely views. We also got up close with the wildlife, lots of beautiful birds and even a wombat!

We feel like our own place
I had the pleasure of staying at this place that exceeded my expectations. The location of the property was ideal, it was conveniently situated in a vibrant neighbourhood, with easy access to local attractions and cafes. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed the local culture, attractions and atmosphere. I was pleasantly surprised by how much better the property looked in real life than in the pictures listed. The hosts responsiveness to any questions or concerns I had was remarkable. Overall my family and I had a great time.

The stay was great, loved the communication with the owner. The house was clean and very comfortable. I would suggest a sensor light at the back door and lighting on the entrance, because entry after dark is a bit unusual. Would recommend a stay, and thanks to the owners for the lovely warm and cozy fire and amenities.

Cosy, comfortable retreat
My family and I stayed here for three nights for a short getaway. Really close to Melbourne, but you still feel like you've got space and some peace. House was really comfortable; the fire place was perfect after a day of walking. Even though it was cold and wet outside, we could curl up next to the fire after a day outside and take in the scenery. The house had everything we needed, and the owner was very responsive in answering any questions we had. I hope we can come again!

Perfect place to stay for a family wedding, and catch up with interstate friends.
Carmel was great to deal with . We had one postponement, and changes of people staying, but she made it all stress free Really good layout for our group. Previous guests mentioned the driveway, and yes it was steep, but easy access and plenty of space at the top. Likely to return.

Great location easy access to Mt Donna to see snow. Only feedback is to include linen & towels as part of the booking. And internet! Kids these days can’t cope without it. I didn’t realise you had to pay extra for linen which was disappointing. Carmel was lovely and easy to deal with.
