The White House review

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We all love staying at this house but it's very disappointing that the stove/oven still hasn't been replaced - it doesn't work properly. The general maintenance of the house still needs a little work.

Great place for a large group gathering.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were pleasantly surprised on arrival regarding the overall property. The space available for socialising (in a variety of locations) and the abundance of crockery, glassware, utensils & the new stove easily catered for our family group of 20. Everything that Bright township has to offer is just a short walk around the corner, and it was a very comfortable & cosy experience for everybody.We'll be back :-)

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The White House & Retreat is an ideal rental for large groups with 6 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms. It is situated in neat street close to nearby shops and eateries. The property is in desperate need of maintenance as it has been deteriorating over the years we’ve rented it.

Great for large snow trips to Hotham

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a group of 14 people and there was more than enough space to sleep and stay at the home. Facilities were also great, and enough of everything for the amount of people we had. House was very clean when we arrived, and check in instructions were easy to follow. Only downside is there was no hairdryer, so make sure to bring your own!

Fantastic Property

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family rented the White House and Retreat at Bright to celebrate our Mother’s 80th birthday. The house was in a fantastic location within easy walking distance into Bright. There were 15 of us, 12 adults and 3 kids and there was plenty of room for everyone. At no stage did we feel cramped even on the one day that it poured with rain and we were pretty much confined to the house. The separate retreat out the back and the five bathrooms made it extremely comfortable for all of us. I would highly recommend the White House and Retreat
