We enjoyed our stay, the house is lovely, very comfortable, clean, tidy and well organised. Everything you need is provided throughout the house.Some more comfortable outdoor furniture would be good, for relaxing and lounging around.The pool was a bit smaller than expected, it looks huge in the photos, but a good size for just the two of us.
This is a fabulous property for a family get-away to the Echuca-Moama area. The house was immaculate and had every facility we could want, esp. the games and entertainments for the children. All the beds, couches etc were very comfortable and the kitchen and BBQ were very well equipped.
Being mid-winter we didn't get to try the pool but it was sparking clean and would have been wonderful to use in the warmer weather. We normally stay in Echuca when coming to this area but next time we'll be back at The Great Escape for sure!
Amazing place that we will return to next year .
We honestly could not fault anything about this place ! The kids had the best time due to the amazing games room and swimming pool !
We had 3 adults and 5 children comfortably stay at this property. The property was very clean and the kids (and adults) loved the pool and games room. The property is in a great location, a very quite street which is still close to the town centre. Would definitely recommend this property
I have 3 young boys, vacations aren’t relaxing, but this one was! We had a family vacation with the grandparents and wanted a place we could relax while the boys had fun. This was the perfect holiday house, the best we’ve ever stayed at! An amazing outdoor area, pool was heated, the games room was amazing and the best BBQ! Anyone with kids will love it as it’s contained and lots to do. Even without kids, it’s a beautiful house! 5 stars and I’m not exaggerating!
