4/10 Fair

Very disappointing
This is not worth the cost. It is basically a farm stay surrounded by introduced trees with the faint smell of cow dung and the sound of gun shots. It may be near beautiful native trees of the Otways, but they are not accessible. The property map provided is out of date and access to the waterfalls hasn't been maintained. Be prepared for long arduous walks and rock climbing to access them. We stayed for a week on daily rates but had no top up of supplies. We had to supply our own soap, bin bags, dishwasher tablets, dish cloths, toilet paper, bathroom hand towels and cooking utensils. Some weren't supplied, some ran out quickly (like, within 24 hours). We also had to vacuum up food on arrival and clean the dishwasher of gunk. A QR code is supposed to provide access to a manual for the stay, however, the link wasn't working. We told them and by the last day of our trip, the link still wasn't working - a sign that they did not really care. Dogs were on the property (not sure whose) and they were not on leashes or kept under control. They barked at the cows and at us when we were trying to play outside and tried to take food off our table, so it wasn't really enjoyable to go outside. No aircon inside (it does have heating options). Overall, very disappointing.
