The vibe is rustic, man from Snowy River with sweeping views of the country landscape. In winter the landscape is less green but nonetheless beautiful with its earthy tones of greys, greens and browns punctuated by vibrant oranges, purples and yellows. Picturesque and cosy we enjoyed our winter nights by the fire and found ourselves taking morning drives on the long winding road from the property taking in the beauty of the land while watching deer and kangaroo jump along in the fields beside us. It was a great location not too far from the centre of the city so getting dinners and breakfasts in town is easy enough. The host was lovely and you can tell the love and pride that went into building up his property

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Bush Grove. Everywhere you turn there is something to delight - both inside and out. From the hand-crafted furnishings, the stunning artwork, the beautiful outlook from the front windows and the gorgeous riverfront a short (albeit rough) drive from the cabin. Bushy has ensured that the cabin has everything you could need for a comfortable stay. Internet is patchy, which didn’t really worry us, but might be worth knowing if that’s important for some reason. We hope to return to soak up the ambience that Bush Grove offers.

We were pleasantly surprised to discover Gary Bush's property online and delighted to see how much more authentic it was in 3D than the photos and website description suggested. Gary made us so welcome we felt like friends visiting him. We enjoyed peaceful days with possibly the best trout ever, catching incredible rainbows and browns that became our evening feasts, and cosy nights sleeping in what felt like a treehouse. When we met the artist Lucy Rose who had created the amazing works that adorned the walls of Bush Grove, we said we had never before slept in an art gallery and told her what fun this was. Gary's little piece of paradise is utterly beautiful and we would happily give it 6 stars out of 5.

Bush grove was just what my soul needed. What an amazing place! Amazing, creative, quirky, cozy and well appointed. Not the mention the beautiful views (breathtaking at sunrise) and the animals - domestic and wild. Bushy (Gary) was a friendly easy going host who had great stories to tell and was very generous. The snowy river at the bottom of the property is a definite must do - so peaceful. Thanks for the great stay Bushy, we will definitely be back

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Bush Grove. Garry was an excellent host and checked in regularly to see if there was anything we needed/wanted. He was great in providing ideas on where to go and what to see. The view from the property is amazing. Access down to the Snowy River an added bonus. The location was perfect being only 10 minutes out of Jindabyne and 45 mins to Thredbo.

Fantastic stay at Bushgrove. Great to be able to cruise down to the river for fishing, sit around the cabin having a few drinks and watch all the wildlife come and go. Bushy is a great host and very welcoming. Cabin has everything you need for a good comfortable couple of days.

Bush Grove has everything you need for a relaxing getaway. Stock up on groceries in town and you never have to leave! The kitchen has everything you need including a massive fridge, gas hotplates and electric oven. Gary is a lovely host who will assist in any way possible to ensure you enjoy your stay. If you have a 4wd make sure you take a drive, on the property, down to the Snowy River...its breathtaking.

My Wife and I had a lovely relaxing stay at Bushgrove. Gary was a great host and even made sure the old fuel stove was in good working order so we could cook a perfect roast dinner. It's a 4km dirt road entry and is passable in most cars, lowered cars might struggle. The property itself was awesome with the river running right through it so if you love freshwater fishing it's perfect. A great place to get away and only 10-15 mons from Jindabyne town centre.

Absolute perfection. Gary is the consummate host. So delightful to deal with and the property is sublime. I was seeking solitude and a chance to get away from it all and this beautiful slice of Australian Snowy Mountain heaven delivered. I will definitely be going back. The cabin is perfect for an alone or couples escape and the short walk to the river is well worth the trek. Simply magical. Gary made sure everything was perfect. This is one incredible little piece of heaven near beautiful Jindabyne that I will never forget. Thank you Gary

A short stay but a memorable one. Perfect cold nights by the fire, spacious living and sleeping area, heated bathroom.. it even snowed our last day. Short walk to a secluded snowy river and short drive to the snowy mountains where I got to see snow for the first time. Bushy is a great host and gave us insight of things to do. Overall was a perfect anniversary weekend away and I wish we could have stayed longer.

We spent two nights at Bush Grove between Christmas and New Year and could have stayed much longer. Loved the rustic charm of the cottage and the surrounds. It was even better than had imagined. The cottage was clean and comfortable with everything we could have needed. The surrounds and views were amazing it was so quiet and tranquil. Gary was a wonderful host and happy to chat and help with anything we needed and we enjoyed the visits from his 2 dogs!. We also had visits from kangaroos, deer and cockatoos. Short trip to Jindabyne or Dalgety for meals but we chose to enjoy the BBQ and views where we were. Would definitely like to return one day and will highly recommend.

Had a fantastic Christmas break at Bush Grove. The studio is bigger than it appears in the photos and host Gary has done a fab job in kitting it out with everything you could need (including a big fridge, great oven and dishwasher - I cooked a full Christmas dinner with no trouble!). Fun to wander down to the Snowy River and to be accompanied by one of Bushy’s two very friendly dogs. Close to Jindabyne it was a great base for bush walks in Perisher and near Thredbo. A great place to get away from it all and get back to nature! Highly recommend ☺️

Gary is a wonderful host! My daughter and I stayed in the studio for four days skiing at Perisher. About 10 minutes out of Jindabyne, it really was a wonderful experience driving down the dirt road in the morning accompanied by herds of deer, kangaroos and rabbits. Added another dimension to our trip. We didn’t feel at all isolated as Gary took care to ensure we were fine and lit the fire for us so that we came home each night to very welcome warmth. Beautifully decorated rustic home away from home. Thanks Gary for taking such good care!

Clean, roomy, warm, fitted out with all the essentials. Pretty location, friendly animals, rustic but charming. Beautiful art work on the walls, Gary was very helpful and friendly with lots of local knowledge. If your looking for a quiet out of the way location Bushgrove is the place for you. My only negative, the bed was hard but plenty of blankets to keep you warm.

This is truly an amazing place to stay, it's like stepping back in time but with all the modern conveniences and Gary is a fantastic host, who had the cottage already heated up for us by the log fire when we first arrived. Our days were spent having fun in the snowfields then we spent the evenings snug and toastie in the cottage.
