We stayed in the bowerbird cabin and it was magical. We’d go back in a heartbeat. The area was serene and there was wrap around windows, seeing the trees, hearing the birds and the rain drizzling the entire time felt like we were in another world. The ambiance of the warm lighting and little electrical imitation fire place was cosy and we spent many quiet moments snuggled together under a blanket on the couch in front of it. The cabin was a perfect base for our hiking trips. Exploring the land around the cabins revealed some little serene pockets, we found a courtyard covered in moss that was quite beautiful. The cabin had a washer and drier, necessary as the cabin itself always had pretty high humidity (expected in a rainforest) so clothes/towels etc would not air dry. Everything cardboard/paper towel etc was always a tiny bit damp due to it. The bathroom was beautifully clean and the spa bath was big enough for two, it was a really nice touch, a great way to soak tired muscles in the bubbles after a long hike! The kitchen was workable, there was no oven but the gas hobs worked great. I did find myself craving more cleaning supplies, I’d bring them with me next time along with some sharp knives, salad bowls and cutting boards. Overall an absolutely great stay, we would be excited to come back. 😍 Thank you Graham.

Amazing location in amongst the trees, it rained the whole time we were there but we had the best time staying cozy indoors and chilling out. Would recommend to anyone needing a city escape!

A special magical place to stay with an amzing host Graham. He greeted us warmly and his love and knowledge about springbrook park and walks was fantastic. The cabin was delightful and so well equipped. A complimentary bottle of bubbly awaited us , fresh milk a selection of breakfast items even olive oil for cooking. All accompanied by birdsong from the surrounding tropical forest

Great property to stay at if you're exploring nearby Springbrook. Kitchen had everything we needed to prepare our own meals (and included some really nice extras courtesy of the property). Overall, great location and value and highly recommended.

Quiet and serene
Beautifully situated in the rainforest well away from the other 3 cabins. Make sure you take all the food you need as little else is close by which adds to the isolation and tranquility. There are 3 good hikes to choose from to be active and enjoy the environment

Such a lovely space to stay! We really enjoyed the fireplace and nice woody vibes of the cottage among the nature. Given some guides for Springbrook, we explored the area and had great time. :) However, there are few things that could be improved. The bath tub wasn't cleaned properly and I could see pink spots and some pubic hair on the jet spa parts from previous guests... You can simply spray some bleach and wash off with some brush. We also woke up during the night when some timber fell off from the top of blinders right above us which was very dangerous and got scared. Probably it's better to be glued or screwed rather than taped with 2 sided magic tapes. But overall, we enjoyed the stay and would love to try other cottages next time.

Stunningly Natural property
Absolutely beautiful property and secluded just what was needed and the owners thought of every little comfort. Take some comfort food and a few groceries for the days and nights to really relax and never leave the natural environment. Possums and wallabies and birds all around us. Can’t wait to go back

We stayed in Bowerbird cottage during our stay. We quite enjoyed waking up in the middle of a rainforest. The location was perfect with a 5min drive to Best of all lookout, close proximity to cafes and a 15min drive to Warrie Circuit and twin falls hiking track (more on that later!) We were quite happy with the amenities provided, complimentary breakfast hamper for one morning, and privacy. I must also commend the outstanding communication of recommended sights to visit, hike and eat in Springbrook and Numinbah Valley. After finishing a 6hr hike through Warrie circuit, coming back to the retreat to rest up was handy as we didn't have to drive 1.5hrs back to Brisbane! I would highly recommend staying here.
