Comfy and spacious family cottage.

Big and spacious cottage, very close to Goughs Bay. The home made cookies, bread and other things for breakfast were a winner. Lots of birds and beautiful and quiet location. The beds were very comfortable.

The check in experience was smooth and easy. We got homemade bread from Dave and Maggie, which was perfect for brekkie. We also got 6 eggs, a carton of milk, cereal, jam, tea and coffee. The accommodation had basic cooking equipment too. For the price we paid, we were very satisfied.

Very nice

Have had excellent experience in staying in this cottage. Very nice hosts who provided very detailed instructions for finding the place and settling in. The hosts are very kind who also provided us with breakfast and even baked muffins as night snack for us. The cottage is small but big enough for sleeping of three. This time we stayed here to travel to Mt Buller for ski, which takes a bit of time to drive but we definitely would come back again to explore the local surrounding.

Amazing host

It was a cosy nice cottage to stay for a small family with all the basic amenities. Host Maggie (Margaret) and her partner were super friendly. They ensured our cottage was warm when we reached there. They even offered to warm up the cottage next day when we came back from our trip from Mt Buller. We had continental breakfast with lot of options to select from and Maggie even baked some cup cakes for kids. We loved the stay and would love to be back next time. Thankyou for the lovely hospitality.

Cosy, comfortable cottage with generous and lovely hosts

Maggie our host went over and above to make sure we were comfortable. We arrived on a cold night and was welcomed with a clean, preheated cottage and even hot water bottles in our beds. Muffins on Sundays were delicious, love the bread provided for breakfast. Very laid back and peaceful place without the distractions of technology. Having said that, phone coverage is not a problem if you're with Telstra. Highly recommend this place. Thank you Maggie for looking after us.

The cottage is set on a beautiful peaceful property and was actually larger than expected. Maggie’s hospitality is above and beyond with fresh baked bread, cookies and muffins as well as other breakfast foods on offer (eggs, fruit, cereal and museli). We really liked that this cottage had a bath. The main bother for us, which is no fault of the hosts and would be the same anywhere in this area, was the amount of mosquitoes! Despite screens and dashing in and out of doors as quickly as possible there were so many of them! I highly recommend you bring a bunch of mozzie repellents. It’s also worth noting that there isn’t lake access from this area, you need to drive down to Goughs Bay only 5mins away. The property has good access to both Mansfield and Jameson as it’s kind of between the two.

Great Host

Maggie was a wonderful host. There was great communication and clear notes provided so we could find the place easily. She was also very thoughtful with heating up the cottage before we arrived on both days. After skiing all day it was lovely returning to a pre-heated cottage. She also provided some freshly baked goods which was lovely. The accommodation was comfortable and well priced.

A great getaway to Mountain Bay

Maggie is very accommodating with all our needs. Freshly baked muffins and loaf of bread are served for breakfast each morning - can't ask for more!! Cottage is well equipped with all cooking utensils and bedding are fully provided, which is handy to have. Look forward to our next stay with Maggie & Dave
