We had a great stay. The rustic cabin was beautifully clean and well-presented and had all the amenities we needed. We really appreciated the unexpected extras provided - wildlife food, breakfast hamper, coffee machine etc. The cottages are so peaceful and secluded, yet only a short drive to Lake Eacham. Highlights included hand-feeding the birds, the mating dances of the rifle birds, and visits from pademelons. We look forward to visiting again!

Incredible place to stay in the Tablelands and be immersed in nature and the local wildlife. John and Jenny were wonderful hosts. Giving us tips on where and how to see certain birds. We were able to see the infamous rifle bird do its dance multiple times throughout the stay right from our balcony. If we ever return to Australia, we’ll definitely be looking to book a stay here. Any nature/bird lover would have an amazing experience here. The cottages were perfect!

Great place to experience the tropical willdlife of the Tablelands. The resort has an active feeding program that attracts birds and small mammals from the surrounding forests. The cottages are well maintained and comfortable with additional tit bits like complementary port and fruit. Hoghly recommended.

Lovely rainforest stay

We had 2 lovely days here. It was quiet, clean and comfortable. The kitchen was well-equipped. The breakfast hamper was great. The bed was comfortable and nice hot showers in the spacious bathroom. There is a handy laundry on-site We enjoyed sitting on the verandah watching the birds come in for the food we were given by the host. Victoria's Riflebirds, catbirds, honeyeaters and robins, amongst others, as well as musky-rat kangaroos and antechinus, all kept us entertained.

Wonderful location nestled in the rainforest with plenty of birds and animals to keep us company. It rained a lot of the time but that only added to the experience with the noise on the roof and the glistening rainforest foliage. Our beach themed cottage was very clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. Our hosts were very friendly as was their dog Noodles. Whilst we didn’t need to light the fireplace we did as it just added to the atmosphere of the surrounding environment. Just down the road from Lake Eacham and within easy access to historic Yungaburra. Would certainly recommend the cabins.
