Positioned under the cooling shade of the rainforest canopy, the house stays naturally cool in summer and offers direct access to a deep water swimming hole in the creek. Just meters from the front deck, you can hear the refreshing flow of the water, inviting you for a swim or simply sit by to unwind by its calming sounds.

Fully Equipped for Entertaining: In addition to the fully equipped kitchen inside we now offer our newly built outdoor camp kitchen which features a gas bbq, oven, refrigerator, and ample space for communal cooking and dining, making it the ideal spot for gathering over shared meals.
Relaxing Outdoor Spaces: Unwind by the cozy fire pit or cool off in the creek, surrounded by the tranquil sounds of nature.
Private Natural Retreat: Explore the beauty of 161 private acres, with opportunities for hiking, birdwatching, and immersing yourself in the great outdoors.
