Nice and central to Bright and Myrtleford. Surrounded by beautiful views. Lovely clean unit and the hosts are very friendly, put us at ease and even allowed us a late checkout as our baby was still sleeping.

fabulous view from the back bedroom and rear table down to the river, more spacious living and main bedroom that expected, very clean and modern and well equipped. large swimming pool was a bonus.
What could be improved: short drive to Porepunkah along the main road, not in the town itself but a very short drive

Belinda from Australia (October 3, 2024)
Well appointed rooms which were clean and inviting. enough kitchen ware to cook and a great fridge for snacks and groceries. The games room is basic but provided opportunity to play table tennis and darts as a family, an also showing our girls (10 & 12) some old school NES. we also enjoyed an evening around the fire pit. What could be improved:...
Lucian from Australia (October 1, 2024)
Gary's motel is one of the best we have stayed at until now. It's got all the needed facilities, it is clean and family friendly. Also, the location is just a 5 mins drive away from Bright.
