very Tranquil, and peaceful, at the most part. We have always loved the Grampians, and this stay was one of the most peaceful homes we have stayed in. Thank you and we will definitely be back.

The house was perfect for our stay. It was a short drive from the centre of Halls Gap. Fully equipped kitchen, spa bath, solid fuel heater and firewood and air conditioner. We were even spoiled with a coffee machine and coffee beans. Lots of wildlife around and forest behind the house. It was so peaceful. We will definitely be back.

Very clean and relaxing accomodation. Saw a family of kangaroos roaming around the property just as advertised.

A lovely house in a great location. Well appointed and we loved seeing the kangaroos daily. The only hiccup was the intermittent internet access, which, with no phone reception, made connection with the outside world difficult. But would otherwise recommend

A nice quiet property, check in process very easy and straightforward as well as a good location.
The only unfortunate thing was that the house did have a bit of a strange smell inside.

Lovely warm cosy house in a quiet private court. Plenty of space outside for the kids to explore.

We stayed here for two nights en route to South Australia from Melbourne. So quiet, clean and beautiful. Wildlife was abundant, the fire was on, the wood was plentiful and it was just perfect. Only minor gripe is that the clothes dryer was out of action. If a property is advertised as having a particular feature, it ought to be in working order.

A good house in quiet bush setting

My daughter and I planned a long weekend in the Grampians to do some hiking. The weather was very cool but we found Rooswithaview to be very comfortable, clean, well equipped and warm. We really appreciated having plenty of hot water, electric blankets on the beds and a fantastic wood heater with easy instructions to get it going and loads of wood. The bush setting was lovely and quiet and yet very close to town.
5.0
Overall a lovely homely feel, and nice and clean.
Only 3 minor things to mention:
- some spare towels would have been handy (bath towels, face washers, hand towels )
- the full length mirror in the Queen bedroom was extremely dirty (could see a previous stayer’s lipstick kiss on it still)
- and since the recliner foot rests didn’t work (which is fine) a couple of poufs/ottomans would have been handy.
But apart from those few above things, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. ☺️👍🏽

I have never posted a negative comment but I did not get any acknowledgment from owner when I communicated some concerns so I will post here. We were 24 hrs without hot water and no offer of a discount for the inconvenience. Do not rely on the dryer to get your clothes dry if you are a family with wet gear! It only works if you limit load to a few pair of undies. Faulty cord or power board in bedroom made lamps/electric blanket flicker on and off so we could not use them. Big crack in wooden toilet seat unhygenic. Easy things to get fixed. Otherwise a good place to stay.

We had a lovely week long break in Halls Gap, we have been a few times and this was our first stay at 'Roos with a view' and we would go back again. The house has everything you'll need for a great stay, and you can walk to the pub too. Roos, emus, and birds a plenty to watch whilst enjoying the fire.

Perfect weekend
The property was clean, comfortable everything you need for a getaway or longer stay. Heaps of wood was provided for the fire place which was great for the colder evenings. The view from the veranda in the mornings is fantastic it is peaceful the location is perfect close to amenities if you need but far enough away to appreciate the surroundings. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay 😊

The house truly felt like home away from home. Cleanest and most functional place I've experienced in a long while in Australia. Cooking facilities were great but..this time, the near by hotel within walking distance offered great drinks and dinners for us tired hikers.
House, parking, heating, beds, bath and all were great. Thank you.

So peaceful
The perfect destination to chill. Quiet location surrounded by bush, with many visits from kangaroos, birds and even a deer. The house is spotlessly clean and well fitted out. Really enjoyed my stay and would love to come back.
FYI, no Optus coverage, but that was no bad thing!
5.0
The house was lovely, so many birds at the water feeder in the front yard - just beautiful, unfortunately no roos.
We enjoyed our stay, my son made the most of the hiking trails nearby, I enjoyed the birds & the peace for a break.
