Ok but some ongoing issues
I have stayed many times at these cottages and there are a few issues but overall not deal breakers. Cabin 6A the light in the bathroom didn't work so it was hard to see at night and no spare bulb, the shampoo bottle supplied was empty. Cabin 1A had a broken blind that was not fixed and there was no privacy from this also the tv remote was broken. The cleaners need to check things more closely and get the owners getting things broken fixed. Also the bins outside were so full and rubbish was all over the ground. Somebody needs to take charge and make sure that the cottages as a whole are looking and maintained to a sufficient standard in 2023.

Internet is vital at this location as other than Telstra mobile there is no mobile coverage. Thus having no internet access due to non extant wifi signal was a real problem. However there was some wifi signal improvement just prior to leaving but this needs to be addressed for a permanent improvement.

I got a call 3 days before we were to arrive saying they had to cancel because of a plumbing problem. I had booked this at least 5 months prior to arrival. No suitable alternative was provided, I had to ask. So I spent the afternoon looking for accommodation as I was already on the road

Hi Robyn, thank you for your review, as explained on the phone the cottage is not usable and we had no vacant cottages, we did not want to cancel your booking but had no choice. I did indeed find you accommodation, at Red Jersey Udder house, which I text to you with no response, as stated when I had to cancel your booking, the cottage cannot be used, and I was extremely sorry for the inconvenience. I'm sure anyone in my situation would have done the exact same thing.

If you're not expecting super luxury this place will suit. It's a bit old and rough around the edges but perfectly comfortable.

CABIN 7 not recommended
Stay not recommended....CABIN 7. Yuck - unclean, needed to wash everything in kitchen before use. TV was positioned where there was no power point - fortunately we had packed an extension cord. The shower drains filled up when showering. the fire place was not clean from previous use and flue needs a clean as the room filled with smoke. AC didn't work. The cabin had a horrible smell - musty,? mouldly? or just not aired in a long time...??

One of the dirtiest places ever stayed - Avoid!
The house itself was ok, a little run down but appreciate you get that with old places. The cleanliness was the issue. The place had a funky smell when we first walked in. The fridge was dirty, including old bits of frozen vegetables in the freezer, the shelves in the cupboards were dirty, the kitchen floor was sticky, the cushions on the couch were stained (the couch was a dark colour so who knows what stains were on there!), all light shades were full of dead bugs, there was mold around the bath and shower and the shower curtain rod was hanging off the wall. When we went to go to bed there were no pillows on the bed, when we found them, they had no pillowcases on them. When we went to get into the bed, we noticed that the sheets were stained and had someone else's hair on them. Considered sleeping in the single beds instead, but upon inspection one was already all creased as if someone had been sitting or sleeping on it. Windows didn't open and there was no exhaust fan so when cooking food smells went through the entire place. We left the place cleaner than when we got there!

Snakes alive
First of all the restaurant and bar where closed , the grounds where in a shamble which made it a haven for snakes only given 2 days notice to bring our own food. So shop in a big town before you go as very i mean very limited food in town. The inside was very clean furnished nice kitchen tidy and clean. Never stay again

I'm sorry your stay wasn't what you expected, I'm surprised you didn't see the gardeners that have been working on the property since the 10th January, it actually looks great, your email response said thanks for the update on the closed restaurant and limited supply of food in Maydena. Thank you for yet again your feedback

Friends trip away
No restaurant on site or near by so bring food or eat before you get there. If arriving at night allow lots of extra time as there is lots and lots of wildlife. If arriving after hours make contact so they leave the cottage open for you.

Friendly, helpful staff. Lovely location close to some beautiful walks. The room was spacious with good cooking facilities and comfortable lounge room. It could have been cleaner though - there was toothpaste spatter on the bathroom mirror, the fridge was not clean and the cupboards & drawers in the kitchen needed to be wiped out. Supplies were also lacking - ran out of toilet paper (had to use our own), also ran out of dishwashing liquid and was only given one tiny soap between two people for two nights. But I would stay here again as it's a nice spot for a getaway.
