We thoroughly enjoyed our brief stay at Daysend Cottage 'Merrijig', (which is an Aboriginal word meaning 'Good, well done' ) and will most definitely be back. Located across the road from the Merrijig pub and a rather short drive to Mt Buller, made the stay most enjoyable and convenient. Definitely a keeper.
