Only 25 mins from Mount Buller! Dani was an excellent host, she responded promptly to a mix up we had at the cabin at a late hour of the night.The room was clean and had great showers which was well deserved after a long day on the slopes. However only issue was that the fridge wasn’t working and tv remote needed a change of batteries. But overall, still a great stay and only 25 min drive to mount buller! ##### Evelyn T. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lance M. 27 Jun 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Mount Buller trip Very good accomodation for going to Mt Buller, pub right next door just needs wifi and my studio the fridge needs an upgrade. ##### Lance M. Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Tat L. 13 Jun 2022 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Close to facilities and convenience The apartment is next door to the pub, 1 minute drive to the Merrijig hotel15 mins from Mansford and half hr to Mt Buller which made it convenient. Our apartment had a few cobwebs and creepy crawlies. The carpet needed a good vacuum and the walls were so thin that we could hear the next door tenants walking and snoring. Overall however, the place was comfortable and the shower was amazing! Beds were comfortable too ##### Tat L.
