About Us and Blue Ridge Stays
Our Story
We’ve been fortunate to share 20 wonderful years of marriage, two kids, traveling across the world and embracing new cultures along the way. We poured our hearts into creating this home filled with love and meticulous attention to detail. As life took us on new journeys, we transformed our cherished home into Blue Ridge Stays, where we invite fellow travelers to experience a piece of our life and passion for hospitality.
Located in Pakenham, the gateway to some of the most beautiful destinations in southeast Melbourne, our home offers a perfect retreat for families and individuals seeking top-quality vacation experiences. We take immense pride in providing not just a place to stay but an experience marked by exceptional comfort and thoughtful details.
