Sleeping up to seven guests, the farmhouse offers three comfortable bedrooms, a limited equipped kitchen, (air fryer, slow cooker, gas stovetop), wood heater, air conditioning, laundry, and everything you need for a comfortable country stay. Enjoy your morning coffee overlooking the paddocks, explore the river, or simply relax by the fire after a day of adventure.

Perfectly located in Victoria's High Country, you're just minutes from Alexandra, Cathedral Range State Park and the Great Victorian Rail Trail, with Marysville, Lake Eildon, Lake Mountain and Mount Buller all within easy driving distance.

Whether you're planning a relaxing weekend, an outdoor adventure or a family getaway, Acheron Valley Riverbend Farmstay is the perfect place to slow down, breathe the fresh country air and make lasting memories.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Our farmhouse is supplied by rainwater tanks. The tap water is clean, safe and regularly maintained for drinking; however, we also provide complimentary bottled drinking water for your convenience. As our water supply relies on rainfall, we kindly ask guests to be mindful of their water usage during their stay. Small efforts, such as taking shorter showers and avoiding unnecessary water use, help ensure there's plenty for everyone. Thank you for helping us care for this precious resource.

Our farmhouse is serviced by a septic system, so your cooperation is appreciated. Please do not pour oils, fats, grease or dairy products down the kitchen sink. In the bathroom, only toilet paper and human waste should be flushed. Please do not flush wipes (including those labelled "flushable"), paper towels, tissues, sanitary products, nappies, cotton buds or any other items, as they can damage the septic system and result in costly repairs.

We have livestock on the property. Please leave all gates exactly as you find them. If a gate is open, please leave it open. If it is closed, please close it securely behind you to help keep our animals safe.

Host profile image
Welcome! I'm delighted to share our family's special place with you. This farmhouse was built by my grandparents and has been a much-loved holiday home for generations. It holds many wonderful family memories, and I wanted to open it to other families, couples and friends so they can create their own. I hope you'll enjoy the peace, the beautiful Acheron River, the fresh country air and everything this special part of Victoria has to offer. We look forward to welcoming you and hope you leave with memories you'll cherish for years to come.

Why they chose this property

What I love most about Acheron is its peace and natural beauty. Mornings begin with birdsong, the river gently flowing by and fresh country air. During the day, I enjoy walking along the Acheron River, watching the local wildlife and exploring the surrounding forests, mountains and charming country towns. As the sun sets, the paddocks glow with golden light before giving way to a sky full of stars. It's a place to slow down, switch off from everyday life and simply enjoy nature. I hope you'll experience the same sense of relaxation and connection that my family has enjoyed here for generations.

What makes this property unique

Acheron Valley Riverbend Farmstay is more than just a holiday house—it's a much-loved family retreat, built by my grandparents and enjoyed by generations. Set on 13 acres with private access to the crystal-clear Acheron River, it offers the space, peace and authentic country atmosphere that's becoming increasingly hard to find. Guests can enjoy birdlife, star-filled skies, a cosy wood fire and easy access to Victoria's High Country, while staying somewhere with real character and family history. It's a place to slow down, reconnect with nature and create lasting memories with the people you love.
