The upstairs room even features a divided retreat, perfect for those seeking a little extra privacy or a cozy nook to unwind.

But what truly sets "BestViews" apart is, well, the views! Step onto our large second-floor deck or balcony, and you'll be greeted by the most spectacular panoramic views of the Australian mountains and the nearby national park. It's not just a view; it's a symphony of nature, complete with opportunities to spot kangaroos hopping by and colorful parrots making a cameo.

Indulge your culinary desires in our fully-equipped kitchen on the upper floor or opt for a late-night snack raid in the convenient ground floor kitchenette. Fresh linen is provided, and a washing machine is at your disposal for added convenience.

And let's not forget the outdoor spaces! The second-floor deck is an expansive haven for al fresco dining and soaking in the Aussie sunshine. Meanwhile, the balcony provides a more intimate setting for sipping a morning coffee or stargazing under the Southern Cross.

"BestViews" is more than a holiday home; it's an invitation to experience comfort, convenience, and the true beauty of the Australian landscape. Come join us for a ripper time, where every moment is framed by the best views in the country! We can't wait to welcome you to your home away from home.

Great size home in nice location

Nice place, great size kitchen and good living spaces. It was a bit cold though as only heating is 2 small stand alone gas heaters (which did smell of gas a bit) and a split system upstairs as hydronic heating no longer working. Not enough blankets on beds for our liking (others who get warm in bed may be fine). Also as hot water system only heats overnight you have to manually override this in the meter box each day.

Good size house for lots of people but needs more amenities

Listing states that there was no wifi but area had good phone reception. The reception was awful and could barely use our phones to google what was around for us to do. House had nothing provided, one very old and slightly broken tv, no movies provided, no Netflix. No soaps or shampoos in the bathrooms, no bug spray or cleaning products in the kitchen, upon arrival there were ants all over the kitchen bench and had no way to properly clean it up. The windows had vents above so the house couldn’t be properly sealed and was infested with flies, bugs and spiders. Cupboard space was locked and unusable so there was no where to put our pantry items, only one aircon in the whole house so was very hot at all times. No beach towels provided only one shower towel. Other than that house was okay probably needs to have more amenities added to make the stay more enjoyable. The views from the backyard were amazing

Great location! Close to Halls Gap town central also steps away from walking trails. Can observe many kangaroos and cockatoos from the balcony. A lot of space in the rooms, however, the property could be short of hot water because only one tank of water is heated up overnight. Another drawback is there is no Wifi at the property. Overall, the stay is pleasing!

Excellent value for the family

Had an excellent time with family here. Great for adults and kids, we'll set up home with all we needed. Abundant wildlife at the door step and handy to walking trails and town. Only issue we had was with the washing machine but communication on Christmas Eve was excellent and helpful. Excellent value and will be back. Thank you

Spacious and comfortable seventies home

Terrific venue for a family get-together. Loads of room to move around and relax in comfort in different parts of the house. While most of the house has an authentic 70s feel, the bathrooms are really modern.

Great retro family holiday home

Love the quirks of this home. My kids love the stairs and chandelier and bunk beds! Great location. One of the best kid friendly Loop walks starts 100m away. Good house to bring extended family as they can have their own space. Heaters heat the house well.

Sit on the deck and watch the wildlife

We stayed for two nights as an extended family with kids. Perfectly suited to two families. The master and bunk rooms don’t have a door inbetween which I hadn’t realised on booking. Family visiting from overseas were in awe of the kangaroos, deer and emu that passed through. Great location. Right next to parkland and walks. We used the bike path to get in to the village. The house is very retro, great holiday home!

Big house with plenty of space

Although the house is a little tired and dated, it is very big with plenty of space. It was clean and tidy when we arrived, and the house grew on us the longer we stayed. Because the weather was so good, we spent most of our time on the balcony looking at the wonderful views. You can tell this was a very well built home in it's day - the old girl just needs a bit of updating. We would definitely stay again, and probably will in the not-too-distant future.

Great house for weather watching

We enjoyed our stay at Bestviews. The house is quite comfortable & has everything you need. The weather was a bit rough so we were able to take advantage of watching the changing weather pattern from deck at back, or the view to the Pinnacle from the side. Nice, easy walk into the shops for coffee as well.
