Would definitely stay again.\` \`House was lovely and well-located. Communication was excellent.\` \`The accommodations were as described and the access was simple, with flexibility for late arrivals. The open-plan layout was cosy, and the front and back fenced yards were great for our dog. The nearby dog park was a fantastic stop.\` \`Tastefully updated, very cosy, and comfortable cottage with excellent managers who made check-in easy. The electric blankets were a real bonus during the cold snap!\` For those who enjoy nature, the Yarrowee Creek offers scenic walking trails, and Sovereign Hill is a short drive away, where you can step back in time and experience the gold rush era.

Please review the agreement in your guest portal and house guides (digital & print) House Rules To ensure a pleasant stay for everyone, please follow these guidelines: Be Nice: Treat our staff and contractors like the rockstars they are. Smoking: Allowed only outdoors, away from doors and windows. Don’t worry, the plants won’t mind. No Firearms: Leave your slingshots and cannons at home. No Fireworks: Because we don’t want your holiday to end with a bang (literally). No Illegal Activities: We’re not running a crime drama here. Keep It Down: Channel your inner ninja and keep noise levels reasonable. Guest Limit: Only the number of guests listed in the booking can stay overnight. No sneaky sleepovers. No Parties: Let’s keep it cosy, not crazy. Pets: Only dogs are allowed at our properties, and only with prior approval. Check the listing for specific pet rules—Fido deserves a holiday too, but only if we\`ve given the green light! Upon Check-Out Dishes: Wash and put away. Pretend you’re at home and your mum is watching. Turn Off: All lights, heaters, and coolers. Help us save the planet. Pet Cleanup: Don’t leave us any surprises. Clean BBQ: If you used it, give it a scrub. We love a good BBQ, but not the cleanup. Trash: Put it in the correct bins outside. Channel your inner recycling guru. Linens: Don’t wash them. Seriously, we’ve got it covered. If these rules are broken, we may have to cancel your stay with no refund. We really don’t want to do that. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils -
