Big spacious home with views for days

Perfect house for a girls trip away. Made use of all the space and enjoyed the beautiful views of the mountain range from the balcony. The host was accomodating to our needs. Very happy with our stay.

A hidden gem

We booked the property for a weekend to celebrate a 30th. Only good things to say about this property and the host, Frank. Everything as pictured in the listing. The property has some of the most incredible views I’ve seen. Despite its location, you really feel secluded. The entertainment room was the perfect space for everyone to be together and do what they wanted and it was so spacious. The pond is a natural pool which was amazing! Host was very responsive and kind.

Great views, lots if rules.

A good house for a group of 8 adults but we booked for 10. We expected to have a futon so that all couples had seperate sleeping however it was set for 4 people to share bunks. Not really a comfortable situation. We found that the fridge wasn't working properly and we had to defrost the freezer and clen up melted ice. Even though the charge for the house was expensive we were told to strip all beds.

Million dollar views!!!

The views here are just phenomenal. I could get used to waking up to that. The house is very generously appointed and spacious. The kids loved the table tennis, billiards, foosball and video games. There's decent shops nearby in Monbulk and some great speciality shops in Olinda too. Beautiful forest. Puffing Billy just down the road. Yet at the house it feels like you're miles away in the wilderness as it's so private, secluded. Frank was very welcoming and his communication was great.

Beautiful House in Olinda

The house was amazing and super clean. Only thing was the garage wasn’t operational during my stay which made it difficult to get cars out but we made it work. Also the road towards the house is very steep and has lots of loose gravel which can be hard if you don’t have suv or an awd car.

Close, but so far away

Only 25 minutes from south eastern suburbs, you feel like you're in the country, with green trees as far as the eye can see.. House is beautiful equipped with everything you need. To wake up on that verandah with that view, priceless..
