Peaceful location best suited to having a break from our busy lives. As soon as we sat down on the sofa looking and listening to the rainforest we were relaxed. Best place to re change

Wonderful cottage in the rainforest with wildlife

Incredible place, really luxurious cottage with wildlife literally coming onto the porch! Really generous breakfast hamper and food pellets+mealworms for feeding the pademeleons, musky rat kangaroos and birds provided. Our only regret was rhat we only stayed 2 nights!

Lovely quiet and private cottages surrounded by rainforest. Birds and other native animals come right to the door. It was a wonderful and unique experience. A 10 minute easy walk to Lake Eacham. Highly recommend this place to anyone who loves nature.

Such a peaceful place among the rainforest. Waking to the chorus of varied birds is magical. The owners were so enthusiastic about there cottages and keen to pass on their bird knowledge. A wonderful experience.

Beautifully equipped cottage in a lovely secluded environment. Remarkable wildlife including a magnificent display by the Victoria Rifle bird. Very thoughtful provision of food for the birds. Wifi a bit flaky.

Lovely rainforest stay

We had 2 lovely days here. It was quiet, clean and comfortable. The kitchen was well-equipped. The breakfast hamper was great. The bed was comfortable and nice hot showers in the spacious bathroom. There is a handy laundry on-site We enjoyed sitting on the verandah watching the birds come in for the food we were given by the host. Victoria's Riflebirds, catbirds, honeyeaters and robins, amongst others, as well as musky-rat kangaroos and antechinus, all kept us entertained.

コテージで2泊しましたが最高でした。行く道は山道で少し分かりにくいですが、ホストのJohnとJonnyが私たちを気にかけてくださりとても助かりました。普段の世界とはかけ離れた世界で時間も忘れて楽しむことができました。また行きたいです。 It was perfectly awesome accommodation and the host, John and Jonny were super nice and kind. They helped us when we need help. I would recommend this cottage and host. Thank you again for hosting us. From Japan.

Wonderful location nestled in the rainforest with plenty of birds and animals to keep us company. It rained a lot of the time but that only added to the experience with the noise on the roof and the glistening rainforest foliage. Our beach themed cottage was very clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. Our hosts were very friendly as was their dog Noodles. Whilst we didn’t need to light the fireplace we did as it just added to the atmosphere of the surrounding environment. Just down the road from Lake Eacham and within easy access to historic Yungaburra. Would certainly recommend the cabins.

A few nights in the mountains

A pleasant change from the Queensland coast. Our experience was heightened by getting so close to some of the birds of the area with the help of our hosts. The place is well located for touring the tablelands and our hosts were extremely friendly and helpful. Hiding away in a bush location suited us well.
