Fabulous house

The house was everything you could want for a stay on Tamborine Mountain. The kitchen was fully supplied with every possible item you could possibly need. The beds were extremely comfortable and the house was spotlessly clean. The checkin process was seamless. We would definitely recommend it to friends and family and would love to visit again.

A home among the treetops

A very clean, comfortable and beautifully decorated cottage set amongst the treetops. We loved sitting on the balcony viewing all the different birds who came to visit. We saw kookaburras, cockatoos, parrots, bower birds and various other species. This is the perfect place from which to explore the delights of Tamborine Mountain. We highly recommend this place.

We would stay again

The house was fantastic. Very clean and well presented and equiped very well in the kitchen. I was particularly impressed with the small tube of tooth paste and tooth brush in the ensuite, particularly as I had left mine behind. The house does need some maintain outside as it is a jungle to walk through to get to the front door. Really need a full Length mirror in one of the bedrooms.

Visitors book lol

We had a lovely weekend overall. A few points to make though; The tight point toward the house at the end of garage could use a cut back. The home on entry smelt of sewage(at entry area) & dog but aired out quickly once opened. Sewerage smell still occasionally near door/ kitchen window. So pretty & inviting once aired. The main bathroom glass panel may or may not be considered precarious as my 25 yo gripped it only slightly to get out of shower and fell to the floor, not realising it was hinged (quite severe bruising on thigh & wrist damage). We were concerned that had it been a hard grip the swinging glass may have smashed on the towel rail. The Mount Tamborine books are great, as is the decor & layout of the home. Deck we used only once (due to rain) but is a beautiful space (maybe needs some citronella burners or mozzi coils available). Grateful for the dining table & loved the lighting especially in the kitchen, so bright & cool but not hard. The gifts were truly appreciated as was the experience of you special home. We would love to visit again😊 Ghostbusters

Beautiful house in a beautiful setting. Nice and peaceful. It had everything you need and wasn’t far at all from the Main Street! Hosts were great and because of the complementary fudge and wine, it was a must to go to the fudge shop for more! Will definitely stay again!
