One of the best holidays
RockyTops was perfect place for our christmas holiday with family and friends. close to the mountains, escaping the heat of summer. The proximity to the snowy river was awesome, which was great for end of day walking or mountain biking.I loved each mornings sitting on the deck with a coffee, gazing at the view.One night we all went down for a meal at the local pub, which is a pleasant short work from RockyTops, and food was wonderful staff pleasant.Would highly recommend for anyone wanting a place to totally relax and enjoy the clean air of the mountains.We will be back for winter…..

Beautiful location and country feels
This is our second stay at this property and both times, it has been absolutely amazing. The property owners are good with communication when I had questions and the check in process is super easy. The property itself has the beautiful alpine country feel and all the modern and traditional facilities you would need for a wonderful stay. There is plenty of room and storage. Plus the price is well worth it if you are wanting to head up to the ski fields for the day. I highly recommend this property for a beautiful country stay. We will be returning again.

Awesome house
Great place to stay if you want to be close to the snow but away from the hussle and bussle. The fireplace warms the whole house and makes it nice and cosy. I would definitely recommend this house to anyone looking to relax close to the snow.

Very enjoyable stay
Property was lovely. We all really enjoyed the stay. The kids loved exploring the property and the younger ones loved the sheep. Fire place kept everything warm even when it was -6 outside. Nice country road drive to Jindabyne which takes between 25 - 30 mins. All in all a pleasurable experience. Thanks Dan and Kylie

Hidden Gem
Dan and Kylie’s place was absolute beautiful. The place was spotless and well equipped with everything we needed. You wont regret staying here and wish you had booked to stay longer. My family and I were ready to check out on time but had major car trouble. Dan was so understanding and allowed my family and I to stay inside to keep warm while we sorted out our car issues. I can’t wait to book again for next year. Thank you Dan and Kylie for allowing us to experience the beauty of your land and house.

Fantastic views and gorgeous property
Our first impressions of the property were that it was so much better than what we saw on the pictures on the internet. The house was very spacious and had all the modern and traditional comforts we needed for our stay. The fireplaces were gorgeous and a welcomed edition for that alpine feel. We loved seeing the sheep and the cute chapel at the back. The views from the property were amazing as we could see the Snowy River and snow capped mountains in the distance. My only slight negative was that the mattresses were very firm but that’s only because I usually prefer a plush feel mattress thanks to my back issues. Overall, the property was everything we could ask for, was clean and presented well, affordable and close enough to the snow resorts. We will definitely be coming again!

family adventure
The house was everything a family of 7 adults and 3 children would possibly need for a comfortable stay. The kitchen was fully stocked with appliances for our every need. Dalgety is a small rural town with limited food outlets, so to have a kitchen that we were able to be self-sufficient was fantastic. Wonderful stay.

Property and owners were great!! Dalgety and local council let them down massively.
Rocky tops is an amazing property, the house is nice and private. Dalgety on the other hand, let this stay down massively. The space: The bedrooms and bathroom downstairs were all nice, the fireplace does a great job to heat up the bottom level of house and plenty of wood to burn. The upstairs bedrooms and ensuite were also very nice with the small issue of heating in the master bedroom upstairs not really being adequate, but plenty of linen provided. The Owners/Managers: Really nice interactions with plenty of communication making sure we were ok, and helped with whatever issue we had. They live off-site so a telstra network phone is required to make contact with owners. The location: As mentioned above Telstra is the only network available in Dalgety area so that is a must for whenever off wifi. Dalgety before COVID probably would have been a nice little country town with some stuff available to do/see, but since COVID it is now a ghost town. The roads to dalgety from jindabyne were almost undrivable with potholes taking up entire sections of the road to where it was unavoidable. The information on the printout and ad definitely needs to be updated as all the businesses are pretty much shut permanently with the exception of the pub which is only open a few days a week. Summary: Great house with very minor issues (4.9/5), beautiful property and nice views (4.8/5), owners were extremely helpful and nice, with the simple change of ad info about what is around the area needed (4.5/5), Dalgety is pretty much dead with extremely limited businesses for simple stuff like general store items or meals (0/5). OVERALL (3 or 3.5)/5
