Easter retreat

Kalorama was a great stay for our group of friends looking for an Easter retreat, the weather was bucketing down the entire time and the weatherproofing and insulation was marvelous and kept us so cozy and warm, with beautiful views over the misty Dandenong forests and morning sat on the deck with some very friendly kookaburras. Trips into Olinda and Sassafras for antiqueing and shopping required some careful navigating of windy roads but certainly doable for confident drivers. The bedrooms were lovely, clean and warm and the living area made a nice space to relax and catch up

Stunning location

Really beautiful location for the treehouse, comfortable living spaces which accommodated us well. Bedrooms were spacious, central heating worked well. Should be noted the only bathroom is actually an ensuite, which may not be suitable for some guests.

My wife and I recently stayed at Risehill House and it was an experience we wont forget. The house and surroundings were absolutely stunning.The house itself is beautiful with a great dcor that made us feel comfortable and excited for our stay there.The veranda and balcony meant that we could spend time outside and enjoy the fresh air and surroundings and if we were inside the big glass windows still gave us a fantastic view.We were so taken with Risehill House that we plan to go back there during the Christmas break with family and friends. We Just Loved it.
