About this property

Grampians Vista - Halls Gap

After over 10 years of sharing this special getaway with the public, we have now decided to change pace and use it much more ourselves. Come the end of January 2021, Grampians Vista will no longer be available for rent. We thank the many guests who have stayed with us over the last decade.

Following the outstanding popularity of our first Halls Gap property, Grampians Blue (also listed on HomeAway), Grampians Vista is very much put together on the same formula - affordable quality modern accomodation for couples, families or groups of friends with exceptional attention to the finer details.

Ideal for couples or families, Grampians Vista is the perfect base from which to enjoy all this wonderful region has to offer. Spend a week or a weekend bushwalking or rock climbing, wineries or restraunts, fishing or simply just taking in the magnificent scenery and abundant local wildlife.

If the location and structure of this property seems familiar to you, prior to the overhaul it was known for many years as "BJ & Ollies".

PROPERTY FEATURES.....

-Free standing wood heater in living area & fully air-conditioned (reverse cycle split system)

Great house in tranquil setting
We spent 3 night in the house with two adults and 3 kids/teen and enjoyed every second. You will hear nothing but the wind in the trees and the birds. The house itself is roomy and clean and provides everything you need for a comfortable stay. The town is a nice walk away or a very short drive. We will be back.

Great short break
My dealings with property owners were a breeze. Property was clean and had everything we needed with clear instructions on what wasn't available from the owners. A short stroll into town and the property was reasonably secluded and very quiet. The kids loved feeding the cockatoos and watching the kangaroos each morning. Perhaps some older toys for kids would be favourable. Overall 10/10

Absolutely great
Lovely property, close to other houses but secluded in the bush. Great views. Covered decking with outdoor furniture to enjoy the view. Lots of wildlife. Very relaxing we loved it. Sheree is accessible and lovely to talk to. Not too far from the centre of town.

Wonderful accommodation in nature’s lap
A beautiful well maintained property with no hassles. It felt like a home away from home. Neat and tidy with all amenities except that air conditioning is available in only one bedroom apart from living area. Would definitely stay again when ever we visit Grampians.

Bella Grampians Vista!
Our short but relaxing stay in this lovely home was perfect. There was enough entertainment and room for the kids to do their thing and for the adults to chill. There is no WiFi and we enjoyed quality family time with limited internet access. We fed the covkatoos up close (literally off my arm!) watched roos spar and hop around and kukaburras spying our food with those eagle eyes. The property is serene and gorgeous to wake up to, the kitchen was well equipped and the local shops in Halls Gap catered for everything else (we didn't want to cook). We would happily recommend and stay here again (try the e-biking in town, it's awesome!). Thank you Sheree and Stephen.

Great place to unwind.
Lovely comfortable home set back from the road and surrounded by bushland. So peaceful with lots of animal visitors. The house is very well epuipped. Lots of wood for the fire, hot water for the bath and really well equipped kitchen. The lounge is also very comfortable. The only negative for me was the quality of the mattresses. Otherwise it was perfect.

Beautifully located getaway
We had a weekend away with our family friends. We had 4 adults & 5 kids. There was plenty of room and we all had a blast! The kids loved exploring the yard & watching the wildlife. The fire kept us all toasty warm & the deck was great to relax out on when the kids were snoozing. Everywhere we needed to go was only a very short drive (town, the zoo mini golf) and we would highly recommend this holiday house!!!

Relaxing break-away
Thanks again for a lovely stay at Vista. It was a relaxing change from all the stress and challenges of every day life. Vista is ideally situated a short walk from the local shops and is a great central base for the many beautiful walks /drives in the area.The wildlife is amazing ,the cockatoos and kangaroos were regular visitors during our stay. Vista is cozy and comfortable, we will certainly be back to stay again.

Grampians getaway
Really cosy place nestled at the foot of the beautiful towering Grampians ranges, just 1min drive from Halls Gap village centre. The owners are lovely and looked after our every need. The fireplace is definitely a winter winner, and the wildlife, kangaroos, and birds, ducks even, all payed a visit Definitely recommend this place and would come back here again.

Very enjoyable & comfortable stay
Excellent communication and access to the property, which was clean to a high standard and became warm & cosy very quickly. Property is set back from the road amongst the gum trees so really private and quite. A easy 15-20min walk into the centre of town to head off for many of our walks. We were very comfortable for our stay to explore ‘The Grampians’ and would highly recommend. Thanks
