31a Tre-Vista Lane, Germantown

Get away from it all and enjoy a unique, private rural experience in this lovely renovated cottage only 7.5kms from Bright

Set high on a working cattle farm this 80 year old fully renovated cottage and its surroundings will provide you with tranquility, restfulness and plenty of good clean fresh alpine air. Sitting on the verandah of the cottage one has a clear view of Mt Feathertop, Mt Hotham and Mt Bogong which are spectacular all year round. At night the stars are clear and feel incredibly close to you, so great for star gazing.

Approximately an 8 minute drive from the centre of Bright where there are plenty of quaint shops, restaurants, supermarkets and pubs for you to explore and enjoy. A little further afield is a 35 minute trip to Mt Beauty, or 45 minutes to Mt Hotham for a days skiing in the winter or 60 minutes to Mt Buffalo where the kids can play in the snow or bush walk in the warmer months.

Access to the Ovens river for fishing, swimming or relaxing is only a 2 minute car drive, short walk or an easy bike ride. Also, an easy bike ride into Bright for bike enthusiasts.

This property is managed on behalf of the owner by Bright Holidays (part of the Dickens Real Estate group).

Great cottage - very quaint and quiet which was a good respite from the very busy town centre! Kids had a ball running around and looking at the cows. Awesome hydrangeas too 😍

Cosy Cabin
Stayed there in Summer, easy to walk down to the creek and cool down, great access to the cycling path, nice property with Feathertop view when you are in the garden, nice cosy wooden style interior. Heating options in Winter might need an update but I cannot really comment on it because we stayed in the summer season.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Unclean and needs some tlc
The location was perfect, however, there were cobwebs everywhere, dust, dead insects and overall lack of hygiene. Clearly the place had not been cleaned in a very long time.

Cozy farm cottage to stay
It's nice place to stay, was bit concerning about heating system(it's very cold in the morning & night nowadays) as it stated that only1 split system in the lounge room. we are glad to know that the new heating was installed in the bathroom, pls there are electric blankets in the bedrooms as well. not very happy with the press of hot water, not much hot water comes out even we turn it to the max (really need to fix it as there is not enough hot water to wash my hair due to the low pressure), the show head is bit outdated. other than that, we're happy to stay

Autmn stay in Germantown
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Enjoyable stay in location 7kms from Bright on a farm property which was just what we wanted. Quiet location with peaceful surrounds. Very adequate and clean kitchen, laundry and bathroom area. House was comfortable but unfortunately heating was inadequate. We reported poorly functioning reverse cycle heating and it was addressed the next day, heating was improved but still very average, Bare wires were on one of the electric blankets and this was also reported and probably replaced by now.

Tre-Vista Lane Retreat review
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We arrived at Tre-Vista Lane Retreat and were greeted by Rosa who gave us a run down of the property. We were impressed with homey feel of the residence, the cleanliness and the spectacular views of the snow-capped mountains through the Ovens Valley. We were initially less impressed with the reverse cycle air con which is the major source of heating; but through trial and error we eventually had the place toasty (some written instructions would be handy). The beds and bedding were very comfortable, the hot water was plentiful and the property's proximity to Bright was very convenient.All in all - A great place to stay for the money.

Relax at Tre- Vista Lane Retreat
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall, excellent. A great location with our grandsons with plenty of room to run around and play. Very peaceful and quiet. The only thing I would recommend would be a bit of work on the clothesline as it has rusty wires, cant be lowered and we could not find clothes pegs. A couple of mice were spotted in the kitchen area on the last day. Also after a torrential downpour a (very) small amount of water was noticed on the Kitchen floor adjacent to the fireplace. It may have come through the ceiling but not sure. Otherwise great and we intend to return again with grandkids in tow. Can also recommend the meals at the "Wandi Pub" at Wandiligong.

Ideal place for peace and quiet
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property is a charming cottage in quiet rural surroundings. We have been there three times! Kitchen is well equipped and the beds are comfortable and warm. Plentiful birdlife adds to its charm. It is close to Bright (7Kms) without being in the busy town.Just a few less than great things to note:- Main heating is by a reverse cycle air-con unit in the living room. This unit is badly in need of servicing/upgrade as the heat output is not great and is very noisy. Similarly the heater in the bathroom is virtually useless. All this makes the place uncomfortably cool in colder weather. The light switch from the kitchen to the laundry should be re-positioned to be nearer the kitchen door so that you do not have to cross a dark room to find the light switch! The main light in the living room needs a new globe. The lights in the kitchen could be a bit brighter too!These are relatively minor things and they did not overly detract from what was otherwise a really enjoyable stay.

Peaceful and welcoming
Located in the middle of farmland, the cottage provides a tranquil and peaceful location. It’s close enough to Bright to ride in, and access to shops, cafes etc in Bright is easy. The house is sunny, and has a vet ‘old cottage’ feel. Nearly everything we needed in the kitchen was there. We slept really well, and the beds were comfy. The airconditioner / heater needs service or replacement (noisy) - but our time there wasn’t effected too much by this because of the weather.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall was very happy with position, location and awesome views. property was tidy / clean. however unsatisfactory heating especially in winter, no good having 2 fireplaces if you can't use, needs at very least a wood heater. bathroom heater didn't work. would recommend for summer stay. Was freezing at night. Or should have fire pit outside something too warm up after days at snow. Liked the stay just too cold inside. Little tweeks could be a winter gem. Wouldn't book again in winter.Leaving my home with ducted heating and a wood heater, it was bloody cold at night.
