We had a lovely stay at Delatite Lodge. The house is very cozy and warm. There was 15 of us and we all fitted very comfortably. The only negative thing i can say is we couldn't use the BBQ as it was extremly dirty, and there was some rubbish left outside.

We had 11 people aged between 22 and 86 staying at Delatite Lodge for a weekend family gathering. The autumn leaves were in full colour and the sun shone. The house was perfect for such a diverse group with plenty of space and lots to do both at home and nearby. We visited the Delatite Hotel in Mansfield and the Delatite Winery and really enjoyed both.The Lodge was well maintained and equipped with everything you could need in the kitchen. The wood fire kept us warm all weekend. A fantastic stay.

Reviewer Comments:
Fabulous home. Provisions and vista. Unfortunately 2 of the 4 bathrooms had NO hot water which meant 8 guests could not shower after time on the slopes. VERY unsatisfactory and disappointing.Management team extremely hard to contact and response to my email /phone calls was pathetic given the cost of hire

Response from VrboOwner on 2 Sept 2024
Thankyou for your review. We were not aware of the 'no hot water' issue. We did not hear from you during your stay although provided you with an afterhours phone number. We will now arrange for the hot water to be looked at as it was all working prior to your arrival.
We are sorry that you felt our services were disappointing. It does make it difficult to return guest calls when they don't leave a message advising us, they have called. After looking at the email threads, we are happy that our response times we all within the normal standard timeframe we provide to all guests.

The property is absolutely stunning. We stayed for the weekend with extended family to celebrate my fathers milestone birthday. Everyone loved the property! It is picturesque, beautiful gardens, river and relaxed feel in the home. The kids were well catered for with games, swing, trampoline and plenty of room to run. The house itself is well appointed for a large group. Perfect!
Delatite Lodge is a beautiful property. We stayed as a large family group and it exceeded expectations. The house is well designed for larger groups and was very comfortable, warm and clean, with comfortable beds. The large windows that look out over the Delatite river are stunning! The property would be beautiful all year round but is very handy to Mt Buller. We will be back.
