About this house rental

2 bedrooms have queen size beds and a bunk room sleeping 4. House sleeps a total of 8.

The house has one bathroom and a powder room.

All beds have pillows, blanket and duvets. Please bring own sheets, pillow cases and towels.

The house has a well equipped kitchen, with an Aldi coffee machine and microwave. A new built in oven and stove has just been installed and there is a large pantry. There is also a BBQ with a hood on the deck. We supply sugar, tea and coffee pods plus other basic kitchen cooking items.

The living room has a Coonara as well as a split system heater/air conditioner. Each bedroom has an oil heater. The house also has a:
- porta cot
- books
- board games
- iron
- ironing board
- large furnished deck with dining facilities
-a TV with VAST Satelite Receiver & DVD player and stereo system.

There is no Wifi at the property. There is 4G reception for those on Telstra at the house in limited spots but it can be patchy. There is no reception at the house for those on Vodafone and Optus (there is out on the lake which is a short walk from the house).

There is no outside bins on the property as the council doesn’t provide them or do curbside pickup. There is a key on the hook at the front door for the rubbish bins down Right Arm Road back towards Eildon. Please make sure you return the key to the house.

Apart from being one of the best locations for water activities with direct access to Lake Eildon from the back door (approx 20m currently), there are many other nearby attractions including horse riding, cycling, 4 wheel driving, markets, winery tours & only 40 mins to Lake Mountain and less than 2 hours to Mount Buller.

Canoe/Kayak/SUP hire is available from Jerusalem Creek.

There is also a pontoon that you can fish off or moor your boat/jetski against for the duration of your stay.

The bbq is required to be cleaned upon departure. Failure to do so will result in additional cleaning costs requested from the tenant as our cleaner charges extra for this.

More than 8 adults will be charged an extra $50 per night per adult. Children are 12 years and under.

We recommend using the Public Boat Ramp at Eildon, to put your boat in, which is only a short distance drive into town.

Please note that the property and surrounds are located in a natural environment with direct access to water and as a result is open to inherent risks, the property owners accept no liability for loss or injury, so we ask that tenants take care for the safety of themselves and their guests.

The area can be quite echoey so please be mindful of your neighbours, especially after 11pm at night.

The mooring pontoon and access to the lake through our property, is strictly for the people renting the property only. No additional cars , trailers, boats or jet skis are to be stored or driven on the property. If there is a breach of these rules, the bond will be retained. (Unfortunately some people ruin it for others).

The top part of the driveway is a little steep so 2WD drive vehicles need to be cautious when exiting..

Any damage to the property or additional cleaning required may results in some of the bond being retained. This will be communicated to you before this occurs.

2 night min stay except long weekends are a minimum of 3 nights. During the peak time in January, 4 night minimum is required.

The address and details of how to access the property and the instructions will be emailed to you a few days before your stay.

No smoking. No parties. Pets allowed at request.

Right Arm Road is quite windy and narrow, so please take care when driving to the house. The top part of the driveway is a little steep and can get slippery, so a minimum of an AWD is recommended in winter.

10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2025
Down the steep driveway with my trailer was a feat, but what welcomed us was a country property with fantastic views of the lake. The indoor and outdoor fireplaces set the atmosphere, and kept the children working and warm! The kitchen and lounge areas were great for our home cooked meals, plus the oil heaters to keep us warm of a night in the middle of winter. Having the pontoon was a convenience for our short term fishing boat hire, which we thank you for, though the lake was only at 52% we still enjoyed the experience!

Good property, great location, clean and easy to communicate with owner.However, no dishwasher and few small maintenance issues.
10 / 10Outstanding·Dec 2024
We were a family group of adults wanting a place to stay with our dogs and a place to moor our boat for water skiiing. We had that - although it was a bit of a rocky trek to the pontoon, but the outcome was worth it for that tiny inconvenience. It was paradise sitting on the deck with the wildlife singing. A rustic house that was clean and spacious and great for the 8 of us. Be careful of the maps app sending you from Eildon to the property via a four wheel drive track.which was not pleasant and unnecessary as the other way is completely sealed all the way to the driveway of the property, which 7 out of 8 of us went by.
6 / 10Average·Apr 2026
Nice location and peacful. Phone reception is bad and internet reception was almost non existent The tv didn't have any signal it couldn't connect to satellite.. There wasn't a canoe/kayak like described. For the fire pit I suggest taking a bag of fire wood/kindling
