Great off mountain accommodation

Gets the job done. Small but cosy. Kitchen is a bit bare bones and does not have a stove, so bring a portable gas or electric stovetop if you want to do any cooking. If you're looking for a place to stay off mountain for the skiing season, this is a great place to consider.

Host didn’t provide check in details and wasn’t contactable for many hours and left my son and daughter waiting out in the freezing cold and dark not knowing where to go or how to get into their accommodation. They ended up having to find alternative accommodation. Never again!

Double bed was two singles pushed together which was hard and uncomfortable. Kitchen had limited crockery. Pots supplied and no cook top! Room had musky smell. Great view though.

Fridge was left untidy with a half drink bottle of milk. No basic amenities in bathroom. Spider wed around corners. Child’s bed was a couch made into a makeshift bed not an actual trundle. Also had to pay for this which is fine, but provide a proper single bed. 1/4 full hand soap.

The entry code to the room was incorrect, it was a 37 degree day, I had 2 children with me, could not contact the host, waited for hrs frustrated in the heat, eventually we realised the bathroom window was open and boosted my 7 year old son through the window. The room was absolutely filthy, I stay in budget hotels often for work, have been for 20 years, this is by far the most disgusting place I’ve ever stayed in, all other guest from the other 3 rooms where complaining, dust everywhere, spider webs, dirty grimy bathrooms, dirty dishes, beds hadn’t been cleaned, just an absolute nightmare . We will be requesting a full refund. Do yourself a favour, do not stay here.

Disappointing

We stayed at this property over the weekend. We had a serious lack of communication before the stay. No check in details were sent and had to call multiple time (with no answer) to get the PIN code to the room. No map of where the cabin was within the group of cabins was provided. Upon entering the room we found 2 large washing bags of other appartments dirty sheets and towels ( I took pictures). There was only 1 roll of toilet paper for 2 adults for 3 days. We had to drive 15 mins into the main town to get more. The soap in the shower was nearly empty. Locals in the area said owner was notorious for poor communication and has left guests walking around looking for their cabins many times before and it’s a local joke. We tried to call the owner when we were in town to explain the issues but again no answer. We would not recommend this property and obviously would not stay again. Very disappointing as the location was fabulous for what we needed and it had a lovely view.

Dear Brooke, check-in details are provided on the morning, not prior. Shall I remind you that the location of the lodge was very clearly explained to you. Notwithstanding this however, there is a large detailed map at the front of the Complex, both accurate & very easy to read. Loo paper and plenty of it, & all basic essentials are found in the big black trunk at the entrance, as clearly labelled. Incidentally, why would you travel 15 mins when there is a store almost directly opposite the complex? As for the CLEAN bags of laundry, (please, do check your photos) they should've been put away. This was an oversight. Apologies. As for the 'locals' do you mean the cleaner & the launderer? Since they're the only locals on site. If in fact you had raised concerns with them, they'd have been only too happy to assist. I don't believe that you spoke to either. You are absolutely correct however- the location & the views are absolutely spectacular. Perhaps if you'd taken some time to really appreciate it, you'd have felt less inclined to complain about nothing!

August 2022 Ski Trip

I've previously stayed at these apartments. (Obviously a good sign) With kitchenette, and proximity to the Hunt Club (Bar & Restaurant) its ideal for short stays. A great alternative for accommodation , if you're not wanting to be on the mountain, but prefer to do other activities

Perfectly cozy for a short stay

Such a perfectly handy place to stay - we were heading up to Mt Buller and all the accommodation on the mountain was sold out so this is a great alternative. Listening and looking at the river pass by under our cabin (no 4 at the back) was lovely. And the shower pressure was something I really wish I had in my own house ! It's also close to the mountain and right next door to The Hunt Club (which has good food and a great mulled wine) . We stayed during winter so didn't use the extra facilities -pool and tennis court but appreciate that they have them :)

Amazing place to stay

We had a great time at Dani’s place. The communication was super easy and quick and the place looks exactly like it does on the pictures. We stayed at timbertop, the view outside is amazing. 40 minutes driving to Mt Buller alpine resort which is convenient. Would absolutely recommend this place to stay.

Excellent base for day trips to Mt. Buller

We stayed at the Treetop studio and absolutely loved the place. The view from the room is amazing. The place is conveniently located in between Mansfield and Buller. Deni was a great host. Communication was super easy and prompt. We will definitely come back.
