We had a great week staying at River Verse. The house was very well set up and ideal for two families with plenty of space inside and out. We loved the views, the access to the Ovens River and riding our bikes into Bright.

What a beautiful house. The sound of a million frogs from the Ovens at night, the view of snow on Mt Buffalo and the endless areas to explore for the children. The house was beautifully appointed and very warm and comfortable. Now to visit in summer and use the gorgeous deck!

Reviewer Comments:
The property was awesome - well maintained and clean. A few suggestions 1. Wifi was patchy, and we couldnt get proper signals on our mobile (so couldnt use mobile data as well) in the basement - can there be an extender or booster?2. One of our reasons for choosing the property was the snooker - the cues were all damaged and unusable.3. There could be a lockbox on the property to pick up and drop off keys instead of circling back to Bright to do so.4. Overall though, great property, and lovely stay.5. Will be nice to accommodate more guests - we couldnt -due to insurance restrictions.
