Great location and wonderful being pet friendly, it was clean and cosy with everything you need for a comfortable stay including private parking, it was a bonus to find it walking distance to the golf course!!
Perfect. Starry nights. Weather was great. House was just right, neat, clean tidy and a good size for us. Perfect for our 2 pets too, they loved running around the yard. Loved the ivy around the maple and the deck between it all.
Enjoyed our stay, the house is well set out, well presented, beds are comfortable. Tv, internet and even a small library of books select from and read. All utilities you need to cook 'in house' are provided. Well suited to families or groups up to six, looking for a comfortable place to stay. I intend to stay there again next time I travel to Mount Beauty.
Great location, BBQ was clean and easy to use. Loved sitting out on the deck, its a great space. The host was quick to respond to our queries. House was clean. Enjoyed to reading nook with the windows looking out onto the decking and trees.
We had a wonderful stay. This place has everything you need for a great stay. Close to all the activities and super comfortable. Would definitely book again.
We really enjoyed our stay - the place is great, spaceous and well equipped and comfortable. We liked the decor, the library (even the DVD library) and the atmosphere. It was clean and inviting and great value for money. What could be better? Well, the aircon really struggles with warming such a large place, it was ok after some time but in Winter it may not suffice. The bathroom door has a tendency to get stuck in a locked position and there isn't enough light to even easily read after dark. The last two are very easy to fix though (fix door, install stronger light bulbs) and even the heat can be dealt with with a couple of portable heaters. One way or the other, we had a great time, and would gladly come back if we go to the region again

HI Shai, great feedback thankyou. I will definitely install a booster heater in the living area and the split system is due for its quarterly clean pre-winter which maybe why it struggled. The bedrooms already have wall heaters. I didn't know about the bathroom door so I will have that attended to when the kitchen is updated in May. Its an easy fix to up the target lighting in the living area with an additional overhead lamp, the bedrooms already have reading lamps, and the kitchen will be receiving a new light in May. Its great to get such specific feedback, thanks and I'm glad you enjoyed your stay.
Wonderful property with a nice deck and so close to the lake and shops. So happy we could bring our Labrador too, but would have liked the front gate to be more secure and higher, otherwise it was a perfect stay.

About the host
Hosted by Leah McNaughton
Have loved the alpine area around Mount Beauty since child hood when we would travel from country NSW to Ovens to visit friends. Mount Beauty is the place I will settle in retirement. Currently work in Falls Creek and Melbourne.
Why they chose this property
I purchased this property, because of the garden with mature trees. The cottage is one of the original kit cottages imported from England during the building of the town and the hydro electric scheme.
What makes this property unique
Views to the mountains from the day bed. Large deck with BBQ for entertaining. Quiet central location walking distance to golf course, pond, shops, restaurants and bar. Private shaded garden area for reading and sitting. Clean, unpretentious cottage designed for the comfort and relaxation of humans and small to medium sized dogs.
