Excellent family accommodation.
This property was very clean, extremely well equiped, and with very comfortable beds. The property is dog friendly as both front and rear yards are secure. Advertising photographs of the property were however a little deceptive as they showed everything larger than it was in reality. Proximity of this property to all attractions of the area was excellent ensuring a wonderful vacation. We highly recommend this property to all wanting a relaxing easy holiday in Bright and the high country region.

Family of 10 from 15mouths to 64
Pretty comfortable for 10 of ua and our dogs. aircon sufficient for size of property, could do with single beds as adults don't do top bunks. Hot water run out 10pm at night and had to figure out how to fix as no instructions and gas tak where low. Lawn needs mowing and fences are in very bad state if your dog is out side need to keep eye on the all them times, bbq is very wobbly ans gas needs refilling. These are all small things.that need seeing too. They didn't have much impacted overall we had a lovely stay

Unfortunately, the property does not have internet and has very poor phone connection. This was a working retreat ready to use phone internet, it was a disaster.

Had a great time in Bright!
Bright lived up to its reputation as an MTB Mecca. House had everything we needed and was very comfortable. A little too far out of town to walk, but in a great location. For the price, Wi-Fi would have been nice.

Review of rental for holiday
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The rental was clean, except for some white gel like substance on the master bedroom lamp and bedside table, although the rest was clean and in excellent condition. With a nice proximity to town and access to amenities. Only issue with the rental is no access the WiFi, and with the location there is no cellar connection either. Without WiFi and cellar the experience is much less enjoyable due to not being able to coordinate with other people if its a larger group like ours. Had to waste time driving to town for reception. This is definitely a glaring problem for the rental in this location. Would I recommend to a fried question? Yes but the WiFi issue needs to be addressed, or another solution. For alot of people that would be a deal breaker. But otherwise yes, location, access and condition of property were excellent!

Some Issues
Nice house but had some problems. Main one is there is no internet- the ad doesn’t say so but leaves it to you to figure out from the lack of being included in amenities. That would be OK if it wasn’t for the fact there is no mobile coverage either. That should have been made MUCH clearer in the ad. Could have been cleaner- mess in the freezer, stuff under rugs. Air con in bedroom actually pumped out hot air because the filters were completely clogged. Good spot- away from centre of Bright but close enough.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This well appointed holiday stay meant that our family were well served for a 5 day stay. Two dogs were able to safely contained, and the kitchen was well appointed for family meals. One down side was poor mobile service at the house for both the Telstra and Optus networks.

Lovely house and great location
Great little 4 bedroom house with a great yard for dogs. Loved the walking track right outside the gate and very close to Bright town. House was a little musty smelling when we went in, but we aired it out, and it was fine after that. Nice and clean with everything we needed. Perfect for 2 families

It's all about the little things
Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It's all about the little things, and there's plenty of room for improvement here. Generally clean, but heaps of annoying little faults. Not an ideal kitchen for cooking- get take away, no outdoor setting and BBQ cylinder may be empty. Best to check first.

Accommodation was perfect for our needs. 6 adults and 3 children. Dog friendly fenced area was perfect.Only negative comment was lack of plugs (bath for children) and laundry sink. Also a washing basket would have been helpful.Would definitely recommend this accommodation, and location was very peaceful with pleasant easy walking path into town (20 minutes walk)

Great location, needs a new cleaning crew and maintain !
Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Clearly nobody had visited the property in awhile, lawn needed moving (could have lost a small dog in the back yard) Greeted by face full of cobwebs as we entered the house.Dead bird on the balcony, been there at least 1 month ! Beer bottle tops under the couch cushions. BBQ covered in bugs.If these simply things were addressed it’s an awesome family house in a great location, very comfortable.
