Perfect place to switch off and slow down / relax
Two families stayed here comfortably with 4 adults and 5 kids aged 7-12 years in great sized bedrooms with everything we needed. The house was super cozy with great heating, an amazing fire, being a perfect base for a visit to Mt Buller. The kids loved the space, cows and hanging by the river and so did we! We will be back!

Disappointed
It is a lovely property. But we were very disappointed with the cleanliness. There were no tea towels, dish cloths or sponge provided. Dish washer was full of dishes when we arrived. A couple of dust covered cobwebs in some of the rooms. Dead bugs amongst the crokery. Deck covered in bird poo. It is a shame that the property was let down by the cleaner.

Just awesome!
We had a fantastic time at Aroona Flats, it really is the perfect place for a family getaway! The house is amazing and has everything you need while you take in the incredible views in every direction - there is a great feeling of remoteness while only being 15 mins from Mansfield should you need anything. The river is beautiful, while we had no luck fishing it definitely looks 'fishy', so they are in there. Access from the bank is limited but perfect for waders and a fly rod!

The perfect country oasis
We had the best time staying at Aroona Flats. Loralee was lovely and made the whole process very straight forward and the property itself is magic. Modern, spacious and clean with all the comforts you could hope for and the river at the back of the property was the perfect spot to cool off on a hot day. We all had a ball and will definitely be back. Thanks Loralee.

Epic views, awesome location.
What an awesome gem in the heart of the Victorian highlands. Spectacular views on a farm setting second to none. The kids had an absolute ball being around the farm animals, swimming in the river and most of all enjoying the freedom of country living with minimum boundaries. Overall exceptional......

Our Mt Buller getaway staying at Aroona Flats
Absolutely stunning property, our family of 10 had an amazing time staying here for the weekend. The property owner was so easy to communicate with and attended to our texts instantly when we had questions. The heating was immaculate in the place, when it was freezing outside we had t-shirts on inside!! We created some unforgettable memories here and we will definitely be booking again on our next snow trip next year! If we could give 6 stars we would.

Absolutely Love It ! Highly Recommend
The property is huge, so clean and cosy. Everything was provided. Love the large kitchen space and all the cutlery utensil provide. Very suitable for families with children. Nice place to come just to chill out. Thank you so much for the welcoming wine and chocolate. The only downside was the stove was too weak and it takes quite a while to cook the food or get anything to boil. And the hot water run out quickly that we couldn't really all have a shower. After about 4 ppl, there will be no hot water left. Consider it such a large property and can have so many ppl to stay, it should be something that should taken into consideration. However, the host has excellent communication from Before, During and After the stay to ensure we have everything we need and that we are happy with our stay. Highly recommended and more likely to come back again when we have time.

A lovely house in a beautiful setting!
We've stayed at Aroona Flats previously, and it remains a lovely experience. The house is modern and well equipped, very clean and set amongst rolling hills and a beautiful river. The kids loved the resident cows and kangaroos, and spent hours searching for wombats. A great location for day trips to Mount Buller. Nearby Mansfield Zoo and The Maze are both brilliant for kids too! Thanks again for a great stay. We'll be back.
