Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
The property was well presented and off the main rd so it was quiet...plenty of crickets, galahs and cockatoos to be heard. Walking distance to the small town...about 10minutes walk. The only minor complaint was one of the dining chairs had a broken/wobbly leg... but that should be easily fixed. A nice place to stay

Property was clean. Excellent communication with owner. Would have liked a hand towel, face washers, and hairdryer. Bed comfortable , pillows were a little flat. We used the ones on the spare bed. Overall a good experience and we would stay again.

Spacious comfortable getaway
We really enjoyed the open feel of this house, the lovely back verandah, the comfortable and cosy beds (thanks to the electric blankets) and the easy access to Dunolly and the surrounding forest. The property fronts onto the main road into town from Melbourne, but there's little traffic and it didn't bother us at all. Apart from chilling in the house, we enjoyed visiting the local forest including a very old cemetery and other historic sites. Thanks Alicia!
