Location was amazing, little bit disappointed with the dam being a bit yucky and the tv in the games room not working with the foxtel or the amplifier but apart from that everyone was in good working order, only thing missing which I’m not even sure it has to provided was a first aid kit
Overall experience was great would recommend
Fabulous trip with family from 8-80. We loved the deck area with lots of shade and so much space outside for cricket etc. the photos do not do this house justice
Really great place with plenty of rooms for a large group.
The small carpet near the fire place was dirty and full of dog hair.
There was not enough toilet paper considering the size of the house/ large group stay. kitchen paper towels, bath mats, body wash/shampoo was not provided neither we were told to bring our own. Overall very good place to stay, but some above points need to be considered.
The property was perfect for our family weekend away. All age groups catered for. Great that it was pet friendly as well. We were lucky to have beautiful spring weather and were therefore able to make the most of the extensive property. Supplying your own linen is a slight inconvenience, but it should be mentioned that you also need to bring teatowels, oven mitts and bath mats as the bathroom floors can be very slippery when wet.

Amazing location
The location and layout was fantastic. For our visitors to all have their own rooms and spaces was great. The air hockey, table soccer and darts were much needed activities for the younger members of the group. The grounds are fantastic, with lots of room to move around and for the dog to run and play.
Downsides: there was no internet, despite this being advertised; the property was quite dirty (dead flies, dirty sink, debris in the garden, leftovers in the fridge, dirty dishes in the cupboard); had to remove the doona covers present, as these were for 'aesthetics' only;
Despite the negatives as listed, we had an amazing time, and yes, I would go back...... The 'downsides' are listed only for informed decision making and to support making the property even better.
We had a lovely stay at Silkwood. I thought it was a little expensive as you had to take everything of your own including wood. It cost a lot extra for the wood that we had to buy at the general store. In saying that there was reverse cycle air-conditioning everywhere so you dont have to use the beautiful fireplaces if you don't want to. My major issues was l rang the number given to see if the bins at the gate were ours and would tĥey like us to bring them in, l was spoken to extremely rudely and nastily. I would have given a higher rating except for that

Great property needing some small improvements
The house is great for large groups - we were a group of two extended families and the property was perfect for the kids to run around. The house itself could have been cleaner and we were disappointed by the small number of utensils provided - there should be at least enough forks and knives for the number of guests staying (I think we had 12 forks total for our group of 14 and there are a total of about 17 beds). Also the pots and pans were all almost unusable - the non stick coating was grimy and peeling off. Small amenities like shower gel, dish soap and enough hand wash would also have been appreciated. Aircon in all the rooms was great and kept us cool - the front lounge room does get quite hot though and only has a fan. Note there is no wifi on the property and reception is very limited. Location was great for access to the river at the back of the property and also a short drive to Eildon and the lake.
The host was responsive and easy to get along with when messaging. No linen at all in the house was hard on packing just for a few nights away. Have to bring ALL linen, renege to include tea towels, hand and foot towelsThe property was lovely, massive grassed land and great playground was appreciated. Walk to the river, so pretty and property attached with alpacas to visit over the fence was enjoyed! Great outdoor sitting areas! We'd stay again!
We had a great stay at Silkwood on the Goulburn, with almost anything you could need/want in an accomodation.Also very handy having the pub walking distance away.The only negative comment would be that you have to take all your own linen and towels, as for the price, we felt this should have been included.
The house is beautifully located, with river access and well-maintained grounds. Lots of room for everyone, kids loved the games room, comfortable beds and kitchen well equipped.
We spent a wonderful family weekend and would love to have had a few more days.
Great place for a family holiday. The house has many rooms that catered for my group well. The kids loved the play area. The land backs on to the lovely Goulburn River. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
We had a fantastic time at Silkwood with four families and a big group of kids. Lots to do on the property and the scenery is magical. Having the river right there and lots of space for the kids to run and play in was amazing. We had a great time.
Was a great weekend away! House has a great layout for a large family or group of friends!
Don’t forgot to bring your own firewood ( aircon throughout thought) and oven mitts!
Enjoyed our weekend stay at Silkwood.
Lovely position, comfortable rain protected deck with expansive manicured grass area with river at the back and alpaca neighbours.
