Charming cedar cottage for families-One and a half acres at the base for Buller

Tucked away in a very private setting off Changue Road.
Enjoy the charming cedar cottage for your family. Relax on the big covered deck to watch the deer and kangaroos nibble on the grass while the native birds call to each other from the beautiful trees. There's a huge old oak, and very well established ash and chestnut trees.
Inside there's currently 3 big bedrooms, a practical bathroom and laundry, a neat little kitchen and open plan living with a wood heater plus a split system for instant heating and cooling. Every room boasts lovely leafy views and the verandah wraps around 3 side of the home. Underneath there's room to securely store your gear.
All just a few minutes from the entry gates of Mt Buller and Mt Stirling and even closer to the beautiful Delatite River.

Place is dirty, cupboards and appliances are broken, plenty of firewood but no splitter - house is overall run down. Only redeeming feature is the deer cruising through the back yard and neibouring properties.

A challenging stay with a young family
I found the place based on the map provided on Stayz, the owner never gave the address so it was a little hard to find. The queen bed in the second bedroom is broken and unsafe to sleep on so we had to sleep on the mattress on the floor. No dishwashing soap provided at all yet check out instructions requested for all dishes to be washed. The location to mountain entrance is excellent and it was nice to see the kangaroos in the morning.

Great location
Very good location close tot he mountain. House is old but everything worked and everything we needed was there. Heater and fireplace worked well and plenty of heaters for the bedrooms. Owner was great had to call him for local advice and he was friendly and helpful. Great deck/veranda with tables and couches a very nice spot to sit and drink wine.

Large house, very homey, Warm, like the wood heater, lot of kangaroo, deer & birds
Love it, will stay again, good for family, minor things can be improve, an image of the drive way entry to the property would help to locate it. for the rental price donot expect a 5 star.

Not set up for comfortable stay
For over four hundred dollars a night we expected that this accommodation would tick all the boxes. Unfortunately it just didn't, a few things were a let down. Bedding doesn't fit beds- weird. This can be fixed for less than $40 at an op shop. Electric blankets don't work in the second double bed room. Heater in bunk room doesn't work. Not sufficient cookware for amount of guests, we were only 4 people. This could also be upgraded with $20 at an opp shop. Most everyday items were either empty or not there- no hand soap, almost no dish liquid, no salt, no coffee. And no sponge, all the while leaving guest note stating we will be charged for not clean up the kitchen. All small things but with minimal local shops it was not something we thought we would have to buy. A DVD player provided, with no DVDs. Odd. No axe to chop kindling. And fireplace flute desperately need oiling. Both rubbish and recycling bins out front were overflowing upon arrival. Wall unit heater work well though. And the cleaning ladies were really nice letting us in 25 minutes early. Would not recommend anyone book this for this price.

The worse host you could of asked for!!
I wouldn’t even give this place 1 star rating if it wasn’t purely for the location, apart from that, nothing else was good about it. Upon arrival, none of the beds were made and the bathroom had a leak which made a loud noise all night long. We wanted to ask a question about the fireplace and emailed the owner with no response what so ever! Tap in the shower ended up not working and pouring continuously so we had to turn off water from the mains, as a result we had no water to use for the rest of the night and the next morning. Owner couldn’t care less, did not even offer an apology!!! Lastly, we accidentally left the keys at the property and asked the owner to check the cabin for us as we’re from Melbourne and the drive would have an extra 8 hour trip for us to retrieve it. Owner did not response and didn’t even bother reply back to us. He didn’t even try going to the cabin and have another look for us because he couldn’t be bothered. If you’re planning to stay here don’t expect much for the owner. Absolutely no courtesy whatsoever ever. As long as the money is in his pocket, that’s all that matters to these people. We travelled regularly and I must say this place is by far the worse place we’ve stayed at. Absolutely the worse of the worse with the communication, never have i experienced another host like this one!!
