Our Snow Trip
I loved staying at Come By Chance the location was perfect for the whole family, a short walk to the beginner's ski slope and toboggan run, as well as pubs and supermarket. I was a bit disappointed at the cleanliness (toilets hadn't been cleaned properly in my opinion) and size of the living room, I thought it was going to be larger than it was. Everything else was great, with the setup sleeping 8 adults and 4 kids comfortably. Overall, the whole family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thanks for a great family get away, come by chance.

Our family had a wonderful experience at this property, which provided a warm and inviting atmosphere that truly felt like home. The space gave us a comforting family vibe, making our stay enjoyable and memorable. However, there is room for improvement in the cleanliness of the washing machine and some of the mugs, which still had coffee stains. Despite these minor issues, our overall experience was very positive, and we strongly recommend visiting this property again

Relaxing getaway with friends
A great place to just relax. Well appointed but not too elaborate so that you felt comfortable and relaxed from the moment you walked in. We stayed there with 3 adult couples and it was perfect. If you had more couples then there are comfortable bunk beds. Host communication was great.

Great property will all you could need!
We had 3 families stay at Come By Chance, 6 adults and 6.5 kids. There was plenty of room, the top area for the kids and the bottom area for adults. Kitchen was incredibly well stocked with cutlery plates, glasses, cooking utensils- even plenty of herbs and spices 😀 We are all super keen to return next year!

A Fantastic, well presented house for an extended family celebration!
We hired this house to do something different, to celebrate two family milestone birthdays. We had 11 people across 3 generations of the family together. It was a fantastic time made even better by this property and how beautifully it was cleaned, presented and furnished. The owner of the property took the time to call me in advance to make sure that everything was appropriate and conducive for our stay. On arrival the property was nice and warm as the heating had been switched on in advance. The presentation and space provided by the house is fantastic. The kitchen was very well stocked with all the plates, utensils, odds and ends needed to feed an army of people in one sitting. The wood fire was a fantastic focal point and added to the relaxed ambience of the living area. We also enjoyed the walk to the nearby Carmichael Falls and had a fantastic meal at the Hotel High Plains that is just 270 meters up the road. A BBQ is also provided and is very useful when catering for 11. It was a fantastic and memorable stay and I hope to one day hire this house again, it can be completely recommended. Thanks for a great trip!

It is a very well equipped, clean and comfortable place to stay for our group of eight. We love it.
The fire place is lovely. The house is well equipped, comfortably set up, clean and tidy. Narelle rang us several times to give us detailed check in instructions and to ensure that we settle in well. We highly recommended this place for all.
