Lovely location on the Delatite River with a nice wood heater inside and a log fire outside. Very clean and comfortable. Appropriately secluded but on 10 minutes from Mansfield.
Highly recommend.

We spent a lovely long weekend in Merrijig. The house is great - very well appointed with everything we needed (and more) for a comfortable stay. On the sunny days, the kids loved playing in the (icy cold!) river at the end of the garden, followed by marshmallows over the fire pit under an incredibly starry sky. When the rain finally came we had a cosy fire indoors and a great selection of dvds. A very beautiful part of the world, and very generous hosts.

The backyard was amazing with the clean, running river and a fireplace to sit and chat by. The house was very comfortable and accomodating and the owner was always helpful. All age groups ranging from 3 to 60, loved our stay.

We stayed at Mountain River House for a quick spring ski trip. The house was perfect...very spacious, clean and welcoming. It's set right on the bank of the Delatite River which provides the most beautiful outlook and is just 5 minutes from the Mt Buller park entrance. We'll be back for a longer stay next time.

A really special place with the house right on the beautiful Delatite river. We were a group of 11 adults who had a very relaxing time there, sitting round the fire pit outside, and dining inside with a warm fireplace. Good communication with Daniella.

What a stunning location, right on the banks of the Delattite river, at a home with all the amenity you could want! It was perfect for our group who wanted some time in nature, but also the comforts of a lovely home and backyard. We travelled with 10 adults and an infant who were all comfortable here excited by the beauty of the place and all that we experienced. Thank you to Daniella for being a fantastic host - communication, cleanliness and information were all excellent.

Fantastic Family Friendly Property.Great Location.
This is a great property. The house is fantastic for a couple of families. Layout is perfect with bedrooms seperated from living area. For summer the outdoor area is fantastic with a fire pit, outdoor dining table and the river well situated from the house. The river is shallow enough for the kids to play in. A 20 minute walk takes you to a great water hole for swimming. Everyone loved this stay. I highly recommend a stay with friends and family.

River retreat
Really loved our stay. Fantastic location, perfect place to book for a group of up to 12. The house is set right on the Delatite river with beautiful gardens surrounding it. The house was clean and tidy and there is heaps of space for everyone. Excellent communication by owners. I would highly recommend this property as a base to explore the high country or to just get away for a few days to relax and enjoy the tranquility of the property and the river right out the back door.

Perfect family getaway
I would highly recommend this property for a family getaway. Our two families (with six children) spent a fabulous long weekend here - there was plenty of room for us all. House was so well equipped, with everything you need. The river was such a bonus - provided hours of entertainment for kids and adults, with rafting, fishing and walking along the banks. Outside fire pit was great - all the fun parts of camping without having to sacrifice any home comforts! Our kids are already asking when we can go back! Thanks so much Daniella for sharing your gorgeous home.
