Trilby Australia

The seclusion! It was so private and relaxing. The rainforest is extremely calming and really brings you back down after the stresses of the 8 hour work day.

Shazziejazzie Australia

My partner had a lovely time at this location! The walks that we wanted to do were close by, and it was lovely and warm inside in spite of the gloomy and wet weather.

Eleanor Australia

The room was delightful. Decor and furnishings were charming and comfortable. The bathroom was clean and tidy as was the rest of the room. The bed was comfortable and the quiet/ambience of the nearby forest made for a wonderful nights sleep.

Mitchell Australia

Nice and clean place to stay in the mountains. If arriving in the evening you will be welcomed by wallaby’s.

Wouter Netherlands

FANTASTIC place to use as home base while exploring Springbrook. Bathroom includes bath/shower. Breakfast items were provided and the bed was very comfortable. Great for couples etc.

Sean Australia

It's a lovely place, hide in the middle of Rain Forest. Extremely calm and silence. Perfect place to disappear from real life a couple of days. No Mobile connection, totally silence and relaxing. Even we booked a night in middle of Winter, they provided us two electric blankets and a small electric "fake" wood stove. Some hiking paths around and board games to have fun after dinner. They provide us Bread, Milk, etc to organise our Continental Breakfast in the morning.

Access to world renowned Springbrook world heritage views and hikes only moments away. Springbrook Storybook is situated in the mountains in the hinterland of Queensland’s Gold Coast, Australia. Yet still close to the Gold Coast’s beaches, airports and amenities. Privacy and peace, a world away from busy city life, is yours to enjoy in this stunningly beautiful natural environment, situated right in the heart of Springbrook National Park nature reserve.
I like to conduct my life with respect, compassion and self-awareness, and I am happy to accommodate guests who also are respectful and mindful I moved to Springbrook to connect more deeply with nature, and also to find creative inspiration. I love oil painting, creating re-purposed furniture, and Cuban dance and musicality.
