This place was just lovely, so quiet and peaceful. Our tree house was the Kingfisher and we were very happy with it. Views were great and the fact we were so secluded from everything was the big plus for us who lead very busy lives, to top it off we had NO PHONE RECEPTION! The spa, fire place even the... More

What a lovely setting. the room/cabin was spacious. enjoyed the spa bathtub after a day of hiking. beautiful view from our deck. Very interesting trails on the property. Lots of birds to see. Meals were excellent. we enjoyed our stay immensely. a very quiet romantic setting.

I was lucky enough to be spoilt with a birthday stay at Rose Gums recently. The location is great and the peace surrounding our room, really was wonderful. As the forest is left to grow naturally, the "views" were not what we expected. Having said that, the view itself of the forest and the comings and goings of nature was... More

We read some reviews after booking and had concerns. The clue to who should stay here is in its name,a Wilderness retreat, it is set in the middle of a rainforest so we were treated to some of its bugs and local wildlife they just invite themselves.Saw comments re trees blocking views, the forest is left to grow at is...

As the website accurately depicts, the units are scattered around the edge of the property closest to the entrance. Our unit was on the edge of the... More
