Merrijig · Victorian High Country
Escape to the High Country
Leave the noise of Melbourne behind and trade traffic for treetops.
Welcome
Your Private High Country Escape
Set on 14 private acres just off Mt Buller Road, this secluded High Country retreat is designed for slowing down, breathing deeper, and reconnecting with the people who matter most. Surrounded by sweeping mountain views and open skies, it's a place where mornings begin in stillness and evenings end under a canopy of stars.
The Retreat
Comfort Meets Alpine Style
Privately owned and only minutes from the Mount Buller and Mt Stirling entry gates, this beautifully designed four-bedroom home blends comfort with effortless alpine style.
Every window frames the surrounding mountains — mist rolling through the valleys in winter, golden light across the hills in summer. Whether you're planning early lifts on the slopes, long rides through alpine trails, or quiet afternoons on the deck with a glass of wine, this home adapts to your pace.
Inside, a spacious open-plan kitchen, dining and lounge area creates a natural gathering space. Large glass doors open onto an expansive deck, complete with outdoor dining and BBQ — perfect for sunset dinners, morning coffees, or simply soaking in the serenity.

What Our Guests Say

"We had 2 families and could have very easily had a 3rd family. Lots to do and great to connect with the kids without their devices. Kids played happily in the kid zone area leaving the main living area for the adults to enjoy the fireplaces and great BBQ area with absolutely stunning views."
"Had a great time with friends and families. Felt like home from the time we checked in. Kids enjoyed the property which is big and beautiful. The fire pit was the highlight — highly recommend the place and we look forward to coming back soon."
"I cannot even begin to tell how peaceful this property is. The house was very comfortable for our large group and the outdoor patio was the highlight of our stay — BBQing, hanging out, watching the birds and enjoying the stunning views all around us."
"Amazing house with everything you need and more. Highly recommend!!"
