WHY WE LOVE THIS PROPERTY SO MUCH...My personal fav thing about this property other than the great spa bath & cosy gas log heater is laying in the big king bed in the morning with a cup of tea looking out into the treetops and watching the cockatoos fly up the valley & the sunrise over Mt William range magic! Louise
Ross' favourite thing is riding up Mt William at 6am and watching the sunrise over the horizon from the top of the mountain.
Our girls love the space & fresh air, the birds, the wildlife and more recently building really cool cubby houses out of sticks & check out the pics!
TESTAMONIAL - JAN 2010 Yes, we really enjoyed our wonderful quite stay at The Escarpment. Perfect position, plenty of wildlife and walking distance to Halls Gap village. The accommodation was great, it had everything we needed. (I also liked wooden floor!!!). We have already recommended The Escarpment to our friends. Thank you, Ekaterina
"With UK visitors we stayed at THE ESCARPMENT for two nights. A mistake. It should have been two weeks! THE ESCARPMENT is in a handy position in Halls Gap and is beautifully furnished with everything you could desire on a holiday. We have stayed in Halls Gap a number of times over the years (usually with overseas friends or relations) and have had "satisfactory" accommodation. However, in future,THE ESCARPMENT will be the only accommodation we will consider. We will return! Dorothy and Brian Robertson Jan 2010
Many THANKS for our wonderful stay at The Escarpment! We had a fantastic weekend, it was just what we needed...! The house was perfect, well facilitated & clean, the beds were comfy, the spa was awesome and the surroundings were amazing, the peace and quiet was divine! Thank for making our stay one to remember. Thank You very much again for the stay and we look forward to next time we come back, certainly we have told our friends and they have said they will definately visit The Escarpment...! We will definately be back..!!! Kristen Jan 2010
"We stayed at The Escarpment during the weekend of the Hall's Gap Jazz Festival where our band was playing. It's a beautiful house with beautiful surroundings. It is so serene sitting on the deck out the back eating breakfast or lunch and watching kangaroos hop past. We'll definitely be back (in fact, this is our second year staying at The Escarpment!)." Cheers, Sam

Our stay was exactly what we needed. Great location and all amenities. Felt like we were asleep in the trees and loved waking to the kookaburras!! Would definitely stay here again!

So glad you had a relaxing time and enjoyed the birdlife in our treehouse!
The property was excellent, great location and quiet and a short walk into Halls Gap. Very comfortable beds and you really feel at one with the beautiful nature here. Fantastic to sit out on the deck at night and enjoy a glass of wine and just chill - and there was plenty for the children to do. I would recommend this property to anyone who wants to visit this great location.

Great stay!
This is one of the more modern places I have stayed in Halls gap with all of the creature comforts of home. Wifi was a big plus, kitchen was fully equipped, furniture was well kept and comfortable, and the beds were super comfortable. The TV doesn’t get a lot of reception but that is most likely due to the location so bring DVDs.

Thank you again for your lovely review. We look forward to welcoming you back another time!
We booked for the Grampians Grape Escape but decided to keep our accommodation and make a weekend of it when the event got cancelled. The house is appointed extremely well with plenty of crockery, a Weber bbq, and a great kitchen. The beds were super comfortable and warm. Overall it was very comfortable for a three night stay for 6 adults. It’s lovely sitting out on the front deck in the morning and by the fire pit of an evening. Would definitely stay again.
The house is very comfortable and tastefully decorated and the kitchen is well equipped.
All the bedrooms look out onto trees and the front veranda is a peaceful spot for a coffee or wine after a days walking. Pretty much as advertised.

Fab Claire so glad you enjoyed your stay. Looks like I need to buy another corkscrew thanks for letting me know :")
The house was easy to find and access was via a key lock. Inside all was fine : all was neat, fully equipped kichen, goods beds and a nice bathroom. But the terras in the backyard needs some refreshment : the table was broken and the chairs weren't comfortable at all.

Response from VrboOwner on Jun 17, 2020
Thank you for your feedback Ilse much appreciate. We were in the process of replacing those items in March so you will pleased to know we have a new outdoor table on our elevated deck. We are always looking for ways to upgrade our property as our guests experience is of foremost importance to us! Thanks again.
Very clean & comfortable with lots of thoughtful touches perfect for a family, short drive into town
Welcoming house (up a front staircase though, so make sure this is not a problem for you). Everything was extra clean. Heating is fantastic, especially the gas' log fire'. Beds very comfortable and plenty of pillows and blankets. Towels provided but were on the thin small side and there were no spares. Lots of books, good variety of magazines and some games for the younger kids. Kitchen well equipped and tea/coffee/small milk provided, as well as a few other basics. I would definitely stay here again knowing how well presented and comfortable it is. The only issue I had was a couple of days prior to arrival I was told the house may not be ready at 2.00pm, as it was a 'busy time of year'. I felt this was not good as our booking had been made weeks prior and my family had to change our arrival plans as a result. Also, if staying in summer, the front screen door cannot be locked, so you couldn't leave it open to let in air if you have small kids who may wander. Not a problem in winter of course!

Thank you so much Karlana for taking the time to write such an fabulous extensive review. I am so pleased we got to clarify the misunderstanding with the check in time. As mentioned I like to give guests a warning 'just incase' especially during peak times like school holidays, as we hate to disappoint our guests. You are so important to us! With much co- ordination with my cleaner the property was prepared early for your arrival but the only disappointment was unfortunately you decided to change your plans without letting me know but it seemed to all work out well in the end. Once again thank you so much for choosing to stay with us!

beautiful property in lovely surroundings
The house had everything we needed for our stay. Wildlife was literally outside the front door. It was a beautiful little town to take walks and enjoy the scenery. The kitchen has everything you need to cook a good meal, apart from the skills which you must bring yourself. Nice bedrooms with comfortable beds and great views from all the windows. Birds on your balcony in the morning with a beautiful egg chair to enjoy the ambience.

Loved our stay - highly recommended
We stayed at this great accommodation for 7 nights from 18 Sept 2017. Louise was really easy to deal with right from the beginning when we booked our stay and she provided a comprehensive email with instructions and hints prior to our arrival. When we arrived it was a cold and rainy day so imagine our surprise when we entered the property and the heating had been turned on - how wonderful and welcoming!! The property is really well appointed with everything you need. We did quite a bit of travelling around during the day so ate in on quite a few nights enjoying the cosy gas fire with some local Grampian wines! We really liked the fact that you could wander from the back yard into the scrubland and look at the birdlife and kangaroos, and it's a nice walk into town. We'd definitely consider staying here again if we return to this area. Thanks again Louise.

Perfect Location
Happy with the location and the layout of the house. The process from booking the holiday house to the front door of 'The Escarpment' was a very easy process.
The house had everything we needed; we were pleasantly surprised!
Beds were very comfortable and both the front rooms (with the large windows) were in the perfect position to see a couple of spectacular sunrises through the week!
The house and the amenities throughout the house were spotlessly clean.
We will most certainly book this house next time we come to Halls Gap!!
Thank you Louise

Average
The house was nice. Very homely. The big dissappointment for us was arriving to find the place a big mess, beds all slept in and unmade, dirty towel all lying in the bathroom. We had to then organise the cleaner ourselves with a big inconvience to us. Worse then that we were offered no refund for this. Very dissappointing.

Response from VrboOwner on Mar 27, 2020
Dear Kate Firstly I am very sorry this happened during your stay. But I do find this review very disappointing too as I did explain to you why the clean was missed because I was attending a family funeral. I rectified it as soon as I could given the circumstances of my mother passing. Everything was a big blur during this time which you must be able to appreciate. But then you still wrote this review.

Beautiful stay in the middle of a very cold winter
Very cold winter's weekend, but we loved the gas fire and the warm beds. Huge king size bed in the main room was excellent, as was the quality of the doonas. Kitchen was well equipped too. Kids loved the Wii. We used the fire pit despite the wet - you need to bring your own wood. The BBQ was not undercover, meaning it was a bit sodden to use it in winter. Louise was very helpful and even organised to send us clothes I'd accidentally dumped in the bin when leaving!

We were warm and comfortable the entire stay
The house was very well equipped and the little extras such as games and magazines were a great addition.
We enjoyed the BBQ and fire pit area each evening.

About the host
Hosted by Louise Anderson
After growing up on a farm in South Australia near Robe. Nowadays we live in Richmond Melbourne so thats why we bought The Escarpment as a half way stop from where I grew up and where I live now. We started renting out properties (in Melbourne & Halls Gap) over 15 years ago. We bought The Escarpment because we love bush walking and mountain bike riding. Both of our properties in Halls Gap are in the same stunning elevated location up and away from Grampians Rd which can be noisy at times. We take pride in our properties and are passionate about The Grampians and all the area has to offer. We can't wait to welcome you to stay with us!
Why they chose this property
The Escarpment is located in one of the best locations in Halls Gap. The property is set in an elevated position away from Grampians Rd which can be very noisy. The house is on a large bush block with loads of space and fresh air!
What makes this property unique
Staying at The Escarpment is like being in a treehouse as we have beautiful views out every window. We have a fully stocked kitchen complete with mix master etc so you can get settled in and enjoy your stay.
