- Gaylene (10/5): A clean, comfortable and well stocked cottage ideal for a quiet getaway or family rural experience - Don Valley lodge was extremely clean and comfortable with lots of extras supplied. The location on the owner's rural block was so peaceful and abundant with birdlife, yet only a short drive from the valley towns. Great for R & R or family country fun with lots of open grassed space, bushland and bird or rabbit spotting.

- Shane (9/5): Superb - The quiet location , the wildlife , birds , bunnies, good size , comfortable, the foxtel, the cereals provided The one thing we struggled with was the distance between the accommodations and traveling into city or even just to get dinner,every outing was a bit of a strain just to get anywhere, unfortunately we struggled to find a decent restaurant to eat from. But this is not the accommodations fault, we give an overall score of 8.5
- Joanne (10/5): Wide open spaces - Lots of open space. Great for kids to run around and explore, barky boats and build cubbies out of sticks.

- Kerry (10/5): Great country getaway in a cosy cottage. - The cottage was a great size with everything you need for a weekend away. The location was perfect for us. Easy to access. Clear and concise instructions from the hosts who left us a little welcome note. The rooms were very comfortable. There was no wifi available but we played UNO and Monopoly from the games box instead. The lamp in the bedroom with the bunks didn’t work and the clock had stopped- minor issues.
- Jackie (10/5): homey little log cabin - such a nice, cosy vibe. really felt at home nothing, it was perfect. a fireplace would be a great addition. but that’s a lot to ask for and the heating is already efficient

- Fiona (10/5): A lovely country cottage - Don Valley Lodge is a lovely spot to spend a long weekend. We loved that it was just a 10-20 min drive to both Healesville and Warburton. The property was beautiful and the kids loved exploring the lake and jumping in muddy puddles. The lodge itself was very comfortable and had everything you could need including a few extra towels, some board games, fresh milk, butter and bread. The heater made it nice and warm on cold days. It's hard to think of things I didn't like. A few less rainy days would have been good. Also, if your kids like playing in the mud, remember to bring lots of spare clothes.
- Leah (9/5): Superb -
- Ritter (9/5): Superb - Cleanliness, beautiful country lodge, great for family gateaway. No wifi
