Due to the popularity of our other holiday rental property "The Ridge" we have renovated another house on our farm "The Grove". The Grove is more spacious house with 3 bedrooms. With a larger living room and kitchen. If you love peace, tranquillity and wildlife then this is the place for you. Abundant bird life and when walking along the banks of the Gunny Creek, you may spot a Wallaby or two..
We love people who bring their dogs and other pets on holidays with them. We do have a secure dog yard. Pets are allowed inside. But be sure to bring your own blankets/ bedding for them to lay on. Do not allow pets on furniture and bedding. And please vacuum dog hair from floor before leaving.
The Gunbower Creek is a great spot for fishing and in summer it is a popular place for swimming and water skiing. Murray cod, yellow belly and carp are often caught in the creek. Boats can be launched at the nearby boat ramp, which is just a two minute walk from the cottage. It is currently difficult to fish from the bank of the creek due to the large amount of water lilies growing in the shallow water. But we have installed a fishing jetty nearby to make it easier for visitors without a boat, to fish. The jetty is a 5 minute walk up stream from The Grove Kayaks are available for tenants' use at no extra charge. Life jackets are supplied.
NEW!!! Streaming services Stan and PrimeVideo available for free. Literally thousands of movies and TV shows to choose from. Also have good range of DVDs if internet is out.
Free unlimited WiFi internet available.
The Gunbower Creek is lowered from mid May till mid August. A shallow stream flows in the creek at this time of the year. Therefore the mud banks are exposed and it is difficult to get to the water to fish. Fishing is possible ten minutes from Gunbower in the Murray River. Please contact us if you require further information. In Gunbower there is a Takeaway Shop that also sells all basic needs, McGillivrays' Butcher Shop and the Gunny Pub for excellent meals .

The cottage was full of country charm, clean and everything we needed. Perfect base to get out and explore the area and so cosy and comfortable to stay in and relax.The kids had plenty of room to run around and games and activities provided were great. The carrots to feed Harold the pony was a highlight for the kids and adults.Sean was an exceptional host who made checking in super easy and ensured we were comfortable and had plenty of firewood.Highly recommend and can’t wait for our next visit.

It was a beautiful stay and gorgeous get away for the weekend
Loved our stay at the cottage. Stayed with our 2 children and our dog, everyone had a great time. I loved sitting outside and watching the birds. Thanks so much Sean.
Great place to stay on a budget. We appreciated the improvements since our last stay two years ago, with aircon in two bedrooms making the whole house very comfortable in the cold of winter.
We were looking for a place to base ourselves while we went birdwatching. It was fabulous. We love staying in old cottages and this lived up to it. Would highly recommend The Grove.
We had a great time staying at The Grove. Sean is a great host, and the house is lovely. We really enjoyed having a fire going in the fireplace and feeding carrots to Harold the pony in the paddock next door
A lovely old farmhouse in a very charming little part of rural Victoria but close to all the amenities of Echuca. Ideal for families, and apparently pet friendly too although I wasn't travelling with pets on this occasion.
House had lots of old charm but still all the comforts of home. Dogs were intrigued by the cows and goats, Pony was my favourite. Great base to explore the region
