A peaceful secluded spot for a ‘getaway from it all’ break. Close to the many spectacular Springbrook bushwalks & view points.
Your own log cabin in the woods at an affordable price. Would recommend, and will return :)

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

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

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.
