Beautiful spot

A beautiful spot alongside and overlooking the river. Our host was lovely and the bedroom is really nice. Kitchen and bathroom quite chilly and outdated but functional. Sofa bed provided instead of single bed but comfy enough when mattress moved to floor. I'd stay again!

Hosts were very friendly and accommodating. Property was clean and tidy. The location is nice, next to the Ovens river but not central, there are no dining or shopping outlets nearby. Everything is located in Bright, a 10 minute drive away!

Narelle greeted me upon arrival and was so lovely and kind. She went above and beyond to make our stay really memorable. Room was clean, comfortable and outside space was really well thought out- had a few games of foose ball and table tennis with my teenager. Can’t wait to return!

We have stayed at Alpine River Cottages many times over the years, and for a good reason. The location is central to both Bright and Myrtleford, without the business of either town. The cottages overlook the tranquil Ovens River, where in Summer you can swim and enjoy the natural surrounds. This time, we received a surprise, an upgrade to the new cottage—a self-contained tiny house with a view of the Mountain and the beautiful river. Warm and cosy, we had peace and quiet. The morning alarm, the local Kookaburras and Yellow-tailed Cockatoos. We will definitely be back.
