We stayed for a long weekend in late Aug 2025. Great place, very quiet location, spacious, and a great alternative for families to staying on the mountain if skiing at Mt Buller as it’s a very short drive.

Such a fab place to stay with friends. Super close to Mt Buller as it’s only half an hour up the mountain. Lots of room to relax after a long day of skiing. Kitchen is really well equipped and a large oven to help feed everyone.

A real chalet in Merrijig!

We stayed here with four adults and 6 children so that we could go to Mt Buller. It was absolutely perfect for our group. Everything we could want was catered for and best of all the house was so warm after a cold day on the mountain. Couldn’t recommend more highly!

Comfy log cabin!

We had a lovely stay for our ski holiday. The house was warm with the log fire, split system unit and oil heaters in every room. There were beautiful views of the countryside from every window and the kids/babies loved the toys! Well maintained, clean and very comfortable! Thank you!

This was our second stay and once again, it didn’t disappoint! The house is absolutely perfect for our whole family - clean, comfortable, warm, and just perfect in every way. It has everything you could possibly need for a relaxing stay. The host was fantastic and so easy to communicate with, which made the whole process stress-free.It’s a great base if you’re heading to Mt Buller, but it’s also ideal for a peaceful country getaway if you just want to unwind and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. We would happily recommend this accommodation to anyone looking for a wonderful place to stay. We’ll definitely be back again!

Ideal off-mountain snow trip accommodation

Location is perfect if you are looking for off-mountain snow trip accommodation. House has plenty of room, and is warm with the combustion fire, split system air conditioner, oil heaters and electric blankets (plus heated floors in the downstairs bathroom!). Nice and quiet with no neighbours nearby and beautiful country views. We saw plenty of kangaroos. The house has a very homely/log cabin feel to it. Beds were comfy and having the linen and towels provided was especially convenient. Tania was an amazing host, always responded promptly. We would definitely stay there again.
