House and furnishings are a little old, but was a very comfortable stay. The fenced in garden at the back was overgrown so we couldn’t let our dog in there, but the owner did let us know this prior and there is a large fenced deck. If you are not expecting 5 star luxury then this home is great for a large family or friends group for the weekend. The aircons kept us nice and cool on a sweltering hot weekend. Great communication before and after with the owner.

Our group of 8 really enjoyed our stay at the Healesville Getaway. The house was clean, comfortable, warm, easily met our expectations and fit our diverse crowd. It was good to be ~15 mins drive from everywhere in the Yarra Valley and a short walk to coffee and into town. Everyone was able to relax at the house straight away, despite the cold and windy start to our weekend, and when the sun came out we were visited by parrots and kookaburras. It felt like a home away from home to us.

As we drove into this property it looked like an abandoned house. The grass was long, the garden unkept and the driveway potholed and muddy. The front deck fence had rotting gate posts. The front door was rotten and delaminating at the bottom. Not a good welcome. Inside the lounge room had a dilapidated couch with cuts and holes in the upholstery. The floor was bouncey and the crockery in the cabinet rattled when walking near it. The kitchen sink tap was broken. This is a very run down house. There is a bedroom upstairs that smelled musty and damp. We couldn't use that or the large back bedroom that was cold and smelly. The sliding door to the back bedroom was off the rollers and couldn't be closed. The door to the laundry couldn't be closed. This house isn't at a standard to rent out at any price, let alone at the premium price charged. The owner gave us a credit for one day of the two.
