Best place you could imagine. Forest, walking trails, wildlife
AustraliaDavid was lovely and provided us with all the information needed on check-in. Great walking tracks across the property. The fireplace made the treehouse very cosy. The corner spa bath was great with a wonderful outlook.
AustraliaVery easy to see Platypus on the property, with a stack of great attractions nearby. Wish I had stayed another night just to relax in the room, the views were amazing!
AustraliaGoodie basket on arrival was very special. Locations was stunning. The open bath was incredible. Plenty of things to do and ways to relax. Staff were very helpful and friendly, and provided contactless check in.
AustraliaLocation was amazing. Loved the little breakfast hamper provided in the fridge on arrival. Host was absolutely amazing and very attentive while also ensuring safety due to COVID. Room was set up, and we enjoyed the little touches eg. robe, mozzie spray, washing machine, notes on wildlife. Fireplace was a little fiddly for someone who had never used one before, but once we worked it out, it was a lovely touch. Bath was lovely, with an excellent view. Note that there is about 3km of dirt driving before arriving. We loved having very limited reception for our stay, it was a nice way to reconnect with each other instead of sitting on our phones the whole time. Certain spots of the cabin allowed for sending a text if with Telstra
AustraliaPeacefully and serene! Absolutely perfect for nature lovers and need a break from the city.
AustraliaThe breakfast hamper, to the views and the bushwalks.. it was all simply breathtaking. Very friendly and helpful, had everything planned for us when we arrived.
AustraliaThe view from the treetops was amazing, David the manager was lovely when it came to any questions we had. We even stayed an extra night it was that good! The rainforest walks were easy to find and easy to follow. The secret waterfall was defiantly the highlight of our visit aswell
AustraliaLoved the location - living in the middle of the rainforest - very private, peaceful & relaxing Beautiful walks close by the property Even managed to see an inquisitive juvenile casowary. Great self catering facilities. Loved the layout of the apartment with beautiful furniture and outside deck.
AustraliaVery well appointed treehouse ( #2 Chowchilla). Very peaceful amongst the sounds of nature. Could not see or hear other guests. Bed was huge and very comfortable. Pillows and bedding good quality. Humidifier kept inside dry, even whilst we were in the midst of a massive rain event. Breakfast hamper very generous. Lots of hot water for the spa bath. Used the dryer each night to dry the towels. Whilst the property is well off main roads, it’s still close enough to venture to all the Tablelands and Cairns has to offer.
