A really nice house in great surroundings. Plenty of room for large groups, with beds for 18 people. Hosts were very friendly and helpful. House could do with some minor tweaks, like locks on the bathroom and toilet doors (When sharing two bathroom/toilets with up to 18 people this is pretty important) and improved lighting in the kitchen. Otherwise the house was great, location was great, fireplace is excellent. there are huge living and dining areas and plenty of room. The house has real character too. Highly recommended.
Our adult family group had a wonderful stay at Euroka Homestead. It was a brilliant venie for our group of 8; we were awestruck by the scenery, loved local walks and enjoted the wood fire and local winery.
A rustic farm cottage for groups. Nice quiet location with views over farm land and to escarpment. Good location, close to walks, wineries and tea house.
It is a beautiful location to get away from the city for a weekend. The large house was perfect for accomodating our group of 16 adults, with large living space and plenty of areas to explore around
The property has everything you need for a weekend away with friends or a large family. Communication with the property owner was very easy. Would definitely stay again

Thank you for taking the time to let us know you enjoyed your stay
Such an amazing setting with spectacular views towards the mountains and over the valley. Thoroughly enjoyed our extended family weekend away with three generations. The grandkids enjoyed the outdoors and especially the horses, kangaroos and a swim in the creek. Supervision and boots are a must. An older style house but clean and tidy on arrival.
We stayed between mates for a weekend in May and had so much fun at Euroka. The location is great with direct access to 6 foot track (the best section of it!) and great hike/rides options.
The homestead is well looked after, clean and had everything you need. Definitely recommended for a big group!
We loved the Homestead and our big group stayed in both the cottage and the homestead. The walk or drive between the two is straight forward. The Homestead is stocked with all the equipment you need for big groups. The lounge room spaces are excellent and warm with the fires. The view and property and proximity to the Six Foot Track made it a great place to explore. Also quick drive or even walk to a couple of local wineries. Thanks for having us!
We were a group of 17 which the house accommodated comfortably. It's an old rustic homestead which was clean & comfortable but it's showing it's age.
The pool table was great for the teenagers especially as it rained, the walks around the paddocks were lovely with many horses we could meet & pat.
Don't expect luxury at this homestead but it's comfortable.
We thoroughly enjoyed our rustic countryside stay. Kids loved the fireplace making s’mores and the friendly horses around the property. The view of the escarpments was very picturesque especially at sunset. I suggest placing locks in the toilets, installing more lights in the kitchen and bbq area and some cue stick tips need to be replaced. The tennis area can also be improved. Other than that, we all had a lovely holiday.
My family of 20 (aged 5-75yrs) returned for our second Christmas break at Euroka Homestead in 2022, our first being in 2018. We love it! Euroka is an old farm homestead and I’m sure the walls could tell some stories., and given its age there will always be something requiring maintenance,; and yet it is perfectly situated for a large family gathering. You can certainly enjoy the serenity! Always clean, and improvements were noted. Let me say again, we loved it!

Thank you for your lovely review - you are welcome any time
Worth the money for the location but the house is not in great condition. Door locks does not work, most importantly, bathroom/toilet locks are broken and never locked. Old house but could have been maintained well. Very dusty inside the house and not good for the kids or people with dust allergies.
Great location but access difficult without a 4 wheel drive or SUV. Very large house suitable for our extended family weekend away. I knew the house was old and tired but surprised there were no electric blankets, thin Doonas and small oil filled heaters in the bedrooms with high ceilings and poor insulation. The 2 fireplaces were great with a good supply of wood. As the overnight temperatures went below zero it was not that comfortable, especially without heating in the kitchen and bathrooms. I guess based my previous experiences in the Blue Mountains where good heating was a given, we just weren’t that prepared. Although the tennis court is in dispair, it was a great hit! A few minors improvements would have made a huge difference.
We came as big group for a getaway. The house is quite spacious with a big living area and a nice fireplace that kept us very warm. We had over 18 people (so used the cottage as well), but even when everyone was gathered at the homestead, it didn't feel cramped. The location is also incredible and makes you feel like you've truely left the city.
A few comments mentioned that the house is quite old and this is probably felt most in the kitchen and the bathrooms. Definitely usable, but expect rustic.
One improvement would be a slightly better stocked kitchen. We didn't have things like tea towels, kitchen wipes etc. This made clean up pretty hard, especially when catering for a big group. If there were a few more basic goods, this would have made things easier.
One other thing would be the lighting. The smaller lounge room and kitchen both had very dim or limited lighting. An extra light would have made the space more usable at night.
Overall, definitely a good place to stay especially with a large group. The scenery is amazing, the house is spacious and it makes for a relaxed time away. And the horses were also really friendly.
The property is admist the beautiful Megalong valley with serene environment. Its a property that adults and kids will enjoy equally. This is our third time visiting this properry and look foward to visiting this property again. The property enough beds to sleep our big group comfortabally. Kitchen and oven to cook your own food. Kids have books and board games to keep them engaged or just watch the horses grazing around.
Indeed a property not to be missed and just an hr and half from sydeny so a perfect weekend getaway!
The property fit our group of 16 comfortably. Erin and Chris were very helpful prior to and during our stay. Pool cues need to be retipped.

Need a lot of improvement for the price they charge
The guest house had only 2 toilets for the entire group of 18, but one of the toilet were out of order and not been informed.
One of the single bed not assembled or fitted properly and my mate hurt his back by sitting only. but decided not to claim.
Rubbish bins were full when we entered, had to leave our rubbish inside the kitchen area.

About the host
Hosted by Christine
Megalong Gundungurra language for “Valley under the Rock” Euroka Gundungurra language for “A spirit which lived in the sun ” The last of the aboriginals to live in the Megalong Valley were from the Gundungurra tribe.
The first record of a European coming to the Megalong Valley was of Thomas Jones, a natural history specimen collector in 1818. The first survey of any land within the Megalong area was made in 1838 when surveyor W. H. Davidson marked off 640 acres. The original grant was to George Aspinall and was claimed to be known as "Megalong Station" and also "Medlow Station", which was later incorporated into the "Euroka" property. Euroka has an historic significance at the Local level as the oldest grazing land in the Megalong and it still retains its original boundaries from the 1830s. It is thought to be the oldest cleared area in the valley.
Why they chose this property
In 1884, Premier Stuart ordered the work of finding a horse track from Katoomba to Jenolan Caves to be undertaken. This work was successfully accomplished, trees felled and mile pegs set. Parliament granted £2,500 to create a six foot wide track, which after completion was maintained by just two men it became known as the "six foot track" it starts at Explorers Tree, Katoomba and finishes at Jenolan Caves, part of which runs through Euroka today.
What makes this property unique
Very little of the original Homestead remains today. In 1905 there was a great bushfire that hit Megalong Valley most of the houses in the valley were lost. After the fire a little Catholic Church that had been erected near the Megalong Creek was moved and the small weatherboard church rebuilt and stands today at the Entrance to Euroka (St Josephs). Euroka, the Homestead and Cottage on 430 beautiful grazing acres is as it has been since 1838.
