"Was looking for a place with individual bad rooms and a kitchen. Was only 30min to Cairns and the tablelands via Gillies Range. Staff were very helpful."

"Beautiful cozy spot in the wilderness with lots of live and care taken with the cabin and surrounding area. The little things xo"

"We have stayed at this property several times before and we are never disappointed. Staff are always friendly and helpful. Rooms are comfortable and clean. The only suggestion is to have a pillow menu as the pillows were too hard and too high. "

"Very close to shops & friendly staff "

"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."

"Rooms are dated but very clean. Fresh towels each day. Lovely hot shower. Bar fridge & kettle. Very convenient location & the owner Jim was lovely & helpful. Traffic noise being on highway but expected & I wear earplugs so didn't bother me. Thanks for a lovely stay. "

"The property is beautiful! The staff were very friendly and very informative about the local area and the best spots to see wildlife. Great walking trail around the property with lots of birds and other tree creatures. The rooms were nice, bed was comfy. You don’t need an AC, the fan + windows were more than enough. During our stay the highs were 26c but because the location is in a forest, it kept the place cool. Along with the animal viewing platform, the pool deck was a great spot for star gazing! Highly recommend this gem!"

"Warm welcome. Amazing setting with a river at their door step. Falling asleep to the sound of that river was magical. Fantastic conversations with both Peter and Steve. Great guys with amazing stories and great travel tips for my future camping spots in the Kimberley region. Yummy eggs on toast for breakfast and even better, a pea & ham soup that Peter gifted me for my journey. Peter that soup was a party in my mouth, so so delicious. I can't thank you enough. I will definitely be back. "

"Quiet,clean and near the beach "
