About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Grove Gunbower..

Due to the popularity of our other holiday rental property "The Ridge" we have renovated another house on our farm "The Grove".
The Grove is more spacious house with 3 bedrooms. With a larger living room and kitchen.
If you love peace, tranquillity and wildlife then this is the place for you. Abundant bird life and when walking along the banks of the Gunny Creek, you may spot a Wallaby or two..

We love people who bring their dogs and other pets on holidays with them. We do have a secure dog yard. Pets are allowed inside. But be sure to bring your own blankets/ bedding for them to lay on. Do not allow pets on furniture and bedding. And please vacuum dog hair from floor before leaving.

The Gunbower Creek is a great spot for fishing and in summer it is a popular place for swimming and water skiing.
Murray cod, yellow belly and carp are often caught in the creek. Boats can be launched at the nearby boat ramp, which is just a two minute walk from the cottage. It is currently difficult to fish from the bank of the creek due to the large amount of water lilies growing in the shallow water. But we have installed a fishing jetty nearby to make it easier for visitors without a boat, to fish. The jetty is a 5 minute walk up stream from The Grove
Kayaks are available for tenants' use at no extra charge. Life jackets are supplied.

NEW!!! Streaming services Stan and PrimeVideo available for free. Literally thousands of movies and TV shows to choose from.
Also have good range of DVDs if internet is out.

Free unlimited WiFi internet available.

The Gunbower Creek is lowered from mid May till mid August. A shallow stream flows in the creek at this time of the year. Therefore the mud banks are exposed and it is difficult to get to the water to fish. Fishing is possible ten minutes from Gunbower in the Murray River. Please contact us if you require further information.
In Gunbower there is a Takeaway Shop that also sells all basic needs, McGillivrays' Butcher Shop and the Gunny Pub for excellent meals .

Locality

The Grove is situated on the Gunbower Creek at Gunbower, Victoria, 40 kilometres west of Echuca.
From Echuca travel towards Kerang along the Murray Valley Highway. Just before entering Gunbower, turn right into Fox Island Road, then right into Richards Road. House entrance is 1.8 km on right amongst the very large gum trees.

Property

The Grove is situated on our cattle farm property of approximately 200 acres. We also have another holiday house on the farm (The Ridge is also listed on this website) which is about 300 metres further down Richards Road.

A lovely old farmhouse in a very charming little part of rural Victoria but close to all the amenities of Echuca. Ideal for families, and apparently pet friendly too although I wasn't travelling with pets on this occasion.

Amazing stay once again!

We have stayed here quite a few times now we love it it’s a great break away from city life. The dogs love having a swim and running around which they don’t get to do when we’re home. This is one of our favorite places to visit and stay! Thanks Sean !

Our getaway at Gunbower

Was a great get away for us and our dogs. Plenty of land for pups to run around.plenty of beds to sleep in, had all the amenities there, wood for fire pit. Dogs area is decent but like our dogs they have anxiety if they can’t see us. If all fencing was chicken wired off would have been better as we had the cows come right up to our property which was nice to see but not for our dogs! Overall was a fabulous stay, would highly recommend it.

Country Escape

We had a 6 night stay at The Grove over Easter. It’s a cute farm house with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Surrounded by farmland and wetlands there’s lots to do for a low key country escape. Great for kids and a dog. Sean was a great host and responded to requests very quickly. Thanks for having our family.

The Grove - review

We have three dogs which were our main concern when booking. The property is perfect for dogs with a secure fenced yard at the rear. A new wood burner had just been installed which gave the kitchen and living area a warm cosy feel. It's rustic but has everything you need in terms of amenities. A quiet and secluded spot but close enough to walk to the local cafe and hotel. Excellent base to explore Echuca, Moama and the surrounding national parks.

Short stay

We didnt stay our two nights dust triggered grandson's asthma. The house is cozy but needs a good clean, lodt of dust and spiderwebs. The dirt rd at the front, very dangerous , a ute drove past at high speed , scary to think it could have hurt a child. I think the house and area suited for adults.. House not equipped for children.
