We had a room with a double bed and set of bunks. The room was tiny but was also what we expected so we were more than happy with it! There was plenty of lighting for each person at their bed and the room was warm. We weren;t expecting linen, bedding and pillows so were very happily surprised! The toilets were close by and the kitchen was great. lots of things supplied!

The cabin was warm and well appointed with all the amenities that a self contained aprtment should have. There was abundant wild life in the camping ground. Onlt 200 metres from the park visitors centre.

Wayne

This must have been my 3rd or 4th visit. The location is very close to the entrance to Cradle Mountain, and is right across from the Visitors Centre. The cabin is clean and well presented, and has all the essentials in the bathroom and the kitchen. The cabin is also very good value if you are staying as a group.

Beautiful location, quiet surroundings, functional unit with no frills, kids adored the bunk bed nooks.

I loved our stay in the cabins here, they were very clean and cozy. The gas heating was great for the cold nights. The shuttle buses were close by (short 5min walk) to take us to the Cradle Mtn NP.

Nice cabin set in a Forest setting. Very quiet. 5 min walk to the CM visitor centre, where the shuttle bus service to take you to all the main walking tracks is.

Discovery Parks – Cradle Mountain is set on the edge of world-heritage listed Cradle Mountain Lake St. Clair National Park, so a true wilderness experience is on the doorstep of your cabin or caravan. The famous Overland Track starts here, covering 161,000 hectares. There are guided and non-guided walks for all fitness levels, canoe tours, horseback trail rides and helicopter flights. Meet resident Tasmanian Devils. Sheffield, Burnie, Latrobe and Deloraine are about an hour away - and with another Discovery Park in nearby Devonport, Tassie is touring holiday heaven.

Wi-fi is only at the reception. Vodafone network is not working at all at that place.
we arrived after the office was closed and at first confused, there is no one and the phones do not answer. Hurrah! on the wall found a box of "Late Arrivals" - and our keys were there! I was very pleased that the fireplace was turned on by the staff and the cabin was warm. The cabins are small but have a well-equipped kitchen. Before our arrival, a thorough cleaning was carried out. good store at the reception. Вut everithing is closed at 6 PM.

Instruction on how to use the oven would have been good, and there were no pot holders. The beds weren't overly comfortable but were clean with warm bedding.
Tranquil setting and very warm heater. Shop at reception had everything you need for cooking and to make a day pack.

Nothing really. It was a very comfortable cabin - not luxury but then we weren't expecting it to be and the lack of wifi was well publicised on the booking site so not a surprise.
The cabin was clean, comfy and easily heated. The possum in our bin was an added excitement (and yes, they can climb out again, after a worrying minute or so of bangs, thumps and rocking, the bin lid opened and he climbed out). It was very close to the National Park entrance. Perfect for a couple of nights.

“Brilliant location, chilly morning, good accomodation.”

1 day is not enough time at Cradle mountain - no fault on the accommodation. Bedrooms are separated by thin partition, so can hear when family members in other room sneeze. Site shop is very basic - bring own supplies (Did not investigate shops further into the park)
Woodland location very close to the national park visitor centre. We had already purchased the national park multi day pass, so could use the bus to reach the lake. Comfortable beds (Made up) Everything worked well. Tasmanian Devil sanctuary very interesting and recommend the feed time tours. (Get there ~ 20 mins early and look at the animals first)
