The quest for exceptional has broken new ground at Tamborine Mountain Glades (formerly Cedar Creek Lodges). Earth friendly elegance surrounded by Thunderbird Park’s untouched nature has something for everyone from on-trend rooms to 5 star glamping and lodges. Be part of the whole story and dine in the Rainforest Restaurant with its seasonal flavours or the Terrace Café for a quick bite. As a top conference and wedding destination, it has earned national, state and local accolades for excellence. This is a mountain retreat like no other, under an hour from Brisbane and less from the Gold Coast. A gem that provides a getaway to reset, reconnect and revitalise! At Tamborine Mountain Glades, we offer a diverse range of experiences that connect our guests with nature, adventure, and relaxation. Our accommodation options range from stylish hotel rooms to five-star glamping tents and luxe lodges, all designed to complement the stunning natural surroundings. We are home to Thunderbird Park, Australia’s number one adventure playground, featuring activities such as the award-winning Canyon Flyer Zipline, TreeTop Challenge, Dig IT – Australia’s first mini-excavator park, and the world-famous Thunderegg Crystal Mine. We also provide exceptional dining experiences, conference and wedding venues, and a soon-to-open Japanese-inspired bathhouse, SOL Elements.
