    We had an amazing stay! Communication with the host before arrival was excellent, making everything smooth and stress-free. The house was beautifully set up, especially for families—everything was neat, well-maintained, and in perfect working order. We loved tubing down the river; it was such a fantastic experience. This place is definitely worth a return visit!

    A wonderful spot to spend the weekend away. Our hosts were so helpful, and the property was the perfect place for my family of 12 to relax and enjoy Merrijig. I would definitely recommend a stay here!

    Lovely location on the Delatite River with a nice wood heater inside and a log fire outside. Very clean and comfortable. Appropriately secluded but on 10 minutes from Mansfield. Highly recommend.

    We spent a lovely long weekend in Merrijig. The house is great - very well appointed with everything we needed (and more) for a comfortable stay. On the sunny days, the kids loved playing in the (icy cold!) river at the end of the garden, followed by marshmallows over the fire pit under an incredibly starry sky. When the rain finally came we had a cosy fire indoors and a great selection of dvds. A very beautiful part of the world, and very generous hosts.

    The backyard was amazing with the clean, running river and a fireplace to sit and chat by. The house was very comfortable and accomodating and the owner was always helpful. All age groups ranging from 3 to 60, loved our stay.
