About this property
Mountain River House - River Front, 15min to Buller National Park.
5 bedroom, 2 Bathroom home with direct access to the Delatite River (Fishing, walking, swimming in the summer). Beautiful trees and gardens and renovated bathrooms, there is even a fire pit along the river for toasting your marshmallows in the cooler months (which is a big hit with the family). Situated in the lovely region of Merrijig Victoria, 10 minutes away from the Mount Buller National Park.
The house is your perfect year-round holiday destination offering the river for swimming in summer (natural river spa just for you), nearby mountain for skiing in the winter, cycling and fishing throughout the year. The river is 10m from the back door, the property has beautiful shady trees for the hot summer. There is no need to go anywhere, bring your hammock and just relax among the trees and river.
The house is setup for a maximum of 13 guests. Pets are accepted on request. All bedrooms have block out blinds, comfortable quality mattresses. A huge living, dining and kitchen.
The living room has two heating sources; a cozy wood heater and also a reverse cycle A/C. The double glazing keeps the house snug all through the night (cool in the summer and warm in the winter).

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Daniella
Two hard working parents of two energetic teenage boys. We love taking trips to Merrijig and always enjoyed going up to the Victorian High Country with our family hiking, skiing and cooling off in the river over summer. Travelling is something we love to do and we are always excited to explore more of Australia. We love to share our lovely home with you which we have restored over the years (Built in the 70s) since we fell in love in 2017.
Why they chose this property
We love the fact you can relax all day at the house and along the river, there is no need to get in a car sight seeing. We can fish, swim and go walking from the front door. If you feel like some action you can head up the mountains for hiking, skiing, road cycling or a shop in the lovely town of Mansfield only 15min drive away. The area is growing fast, so lots of new restaurants popping up which is always exciting as well as wineries close by.
What makes this property unique
Hearing the sound of the river from the house (from your bedroom in the morning) and the birds in the day are amazing. We never get bored of sitting on the verandah and just listening to the surrounds with a good coffee. Favourite memories are having lunch with family and friends under the walnut tree listening to the river.
