Off Mountain Accommodation for Mt Buller

At the base of the mountain is the little village of Merrijig, which is about 40-45 minutes drive from Mt Buller. Merrijig accommodation includes a motel, bed and breakfast establishments and holiday houses. Merrijig is very quiet and has a pub, ski hire shop, restaurant, café, convenience store and that’s about it. Sawmill is a settlement near Merrijig that’s about 5 minutes closer to Mt Buller than Merrijig. Further from Mt Buller is the town of Mansfield that offers pub accommodation and other lodging, and has a fraction more action than Merrijig and Sawmill.

A major pro of off-mountain Mt Buller accommodation is that it’s more affordable and you can also save costs on overnight parking, over-snow taxis and potentially not have to hire wheel chains. The obvious con is the need to commute to Mt Buller each day. noindex, nofollow
