"A comfortable stay"

"This was a very disappointing stay and I would not book again. (1) Although an address was provided, there is no GPS reception in the area and there is no clear property number visible at street level of the tin shack compound. If I had arrived in the dark, I would not have been able to find it. (2) The wood-fired heater is the only heating, and guests are not permitted to use an electric blanket, electric heater, or hair dryer. (3) There are no instructions for using the wood-fired heater safely and effectively. (4) The living area needs to be very warm for heat to reach the main bedroom, and once the fire burns down overnight the property becomes cold again. Even on a mild night (around 10C) it was uncomfortable. (5) The toilet water pump is extremely loud and would likely wake others at night. (6) The cleaning expectations were excessive: guests are asked to not only wash dishes, but also dry and put away dishes, with a warning of extra charges beyond the 100 cleaning fee if the place is not left “tidy”. (6) Yet, there were crumbs under the dining table and egg remnants on a plate in the cupboard. (7) The listing photos show the only nice bits of what is otherwise an old tin and fibro shack, surrounded by more old tin shacks. At roughly 300 a night, including the cleaning fee, it is abysmally overpriced for what is provided. I would not recommend this property, especially for anyone staying in cooler weather or arriving after dark."

"Ashtray outside room wasn't emptied. Verandah had not been swept. Needs block out blinds in lounge room."

"Absolutely a gem of a place - quiet, modern spotless, a great location and everything needed was provided - one in a thousand"

"Lovely, quiet space. Well equipped cabin with a comfortable bed."

"Rooms are basic but clean. Staff were friendly and helpful and the view was gorgeous. Kitchen could use an upgrade as well as utensils. Overall good, although shower has bit of mould. "

"Had an amazing stay here at Wilder. We really enjoyed being immersed in nature, while still having all the comforts of a hotel stay. The dome, the outdoor bath and the lodge were highlights and gave the experience some depth. The backdrop is breathtaking and it's located not too far from Cradle Mountain which is some of the prettiest landscape in the country. Host (Matt) was great. Everything is well thought out and you can tell lots of love has been put into this place. Highly recommend. "

"Lovely hosts in a charming colonial property. Delightful. Convenient location in a cute town. And we saw platypus! Bonus. Thanks heaps."

"Just an overnight. Really nice quiet place with helpful owner. Huge room and all in excellent condition. 8 min walk to the pub for dinner and the steam railway called Redwater Creek is only a little further away (check running days). Worth coming back."
