“A cottage surrounded by the tropical forest, a truly magical place to be.”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 22 November 2010

Thanks for such a wonderful, relaxing time. This place and your thoughtful service, your impeccable standards and warm generosity, truly made for a peaceful, comfortable stay. It is indeed a magical place - tea on the balcony in the early morning, listening to the sounds of tropical Queensland, and then your great breakfasts before setting off for a day of birding, returning to sundowners on the balcony and then cooking supper in the cosy cabin. Thanks especially for your extra-ordinary effort in arranging for the flatbed truck to get us, (and our rental car), over the flooded creek in time to catch our flight from Cairns. We continue to enjoy your blogs, and will keep up with your lives that way, until the next time we return to Australia.

“A beautiful location in a forest that's alive with nature!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 November 2010

My partner and I stayed here for 5 nights in early November. The self contained cabins were great (only critisism I would have is that matresses was a bit old and perhaps needs replacing?). The hosts were the best we have met in our travels and looked after us really well. Breaky was great and local advice invaluable. A nature lovers paradise and a really great place to relax and expiernce the tropics.

Thank you very much for your comments and we were only sorry to hear that you found the bed uncomfortable. We had in fact already decided that at the end of this season we would replace all the beds and bedding, and towels, in each bungalow. We do hope that one day we may welcome you both again - and then will ensure that you are really comfortable!

“Beautiful rainforest retreat”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 August 2010

My partner and I spent two perfect nights here. The private cabin with the balcony over the dam and the birds in the background was delightful. We saw lots of unusual birds and it was a great place to explore Far North Queensland from.

“A good roost fir birders”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 January 2010 via mobile

We stayed here during our second week in Australia. The location was great for daytrips and we especially enjoyed our river trip for birders that was recommended by our hosts and guided by "Sauce." The double-eyed fig parrot made an appearance for us and although the buff-breasted paradise kingfisher eluded us several times, we did find it nearby. The scenery was quite pleasant and the hosts very helpful.

“A magical retreat.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 November 2009

All three chalets have wonderful views over the forest, and, if it has rained, the lake. Unfortunately for us there had been almost no rain for more than 6 months so everything was parched. Even so the ambiance was great and the bird llfe amazing. We also regale our friends with the story of the tiny green tree frog which was swimming happily around the toilet. It seemed a shame to catch it and return it to the wild!

Daphne and Peter are wonderful hosts and tyhis is an ideal base to explore the surrounding rain-forest area.
