Southern Highland Getaway
Lovely little find, great place to relax with friends and explore the region for a few days (waterfalls, cheese factory etc) Carmen was so friendly and communications were great. Make sure to bring/buy plenty of firewood coz the pizza oven is amazing and the wood heater inside keeps everything toasty warm and have shoes that are easy to slip on/off between inside and outside...my outside shoes were lace up (rookie error! ๐Ÿคฃ) Would stay again.

Nice place - Too Pricey
The property and location are really nice and Carmen is very communicative and friendly. The animals on site are great for the kids and the outdoor fire pit is perfect. However, for the price charged for the stay and the extensive set rules and requirements you have to abide by, the property did not live up to expectation. Whilst the place was nice, the price does not reflect what you get. We had a number of issues with vermin, cleanliness, safety issues, all items which we would probably have overlooked if we hadn't paid such a premium price to stay there. Overall our view was the place is nice but the price is inflated.

Country farm stay
We really enjoyed our stay at Maple Lodge. Loved feeding the animals and the position in the country was nice. There are a lot of rules for a house that needs a bit of TLC. Dishwasher was broken and internet didnโ€™t work. We made do and it was fine. The house was very warm inside so lucky there were fans. Overall we enjoyed our country stay and Ani communicated with us very well. Thank you ๐Ÿ™

Amazing Weekend!
We stayed at the Maple Lodge recently and couldn't be happier with our stay. The house surpassed our expectations and was the perfect setting for a quiet weekend away with all our girlfriends. There was plenty of space and even though the gale force winds outside kept us inside most of the time we weren't even bothered. Carmen was super easy to communicate with and ensured we had everything in order for our retreat. Highly recommend!!!!

Fantastic homely property which was great for a family weekend away
We had a fantastic stay at Maple Lodge with 9 adults and 4 kids all fitting comfortably and plenty to keep the kids occupied - from the pizza oven, the animals, plenty of room to play cricket and great spots for an Easter egg hunt. Carmen was a fantastic host with great communication before, during and after our stay. It was a memorable weekend with the family and one we will cherish forever.

Beautiful property, great for group bookings .
We had a great stay at the maple lodge and used the woodfire pizza oven which was fantastic. The house was clean and tidy however, there were lots of rules (re: shoes, designated eating areas etc) which we all followed. I found it disappointing the owner didn't follow the same high standard expected from us. We ran out of gas within the first hour of using it and at 10pm on a Saturday night we were expected to drive to the local servo to get more. Light fixtures in the games room didn't work so we were unable to play pool etc. Changing cables & batteries to watch nextflix or stan was just an inconvenience. I was emailed the rules on three separate occasions which was a bit of an overkill and was reminded an extra fee would be promptly charged if not aherd to. Nice play to stay but with all the rules it was alittle off putting.

A unique cottage
The cottage is quite unique and very comfortable. The kids had a great time playing in the loft whilst the adults enjoyed the downstairs. The pizza oven provide an enjoyable meal for all. The sleeping arrangements were excellent. The cottage with its variety of heating appliances was warm even in the freezing outdoor temperatures
