Great Spot!! The creek is amazing!! Go out at night lots of animals!
Nice and helpful staff, room was quite ok, only bathroom would need an upgrade but still acceptable. Cleanliness was really good, given the fact that it is in the middle of the rainforest, there were no spiders or spiderwebs etc.
The location is really special- with croc-free swimming holes and a deep-rainforest feel. Nice dining room area. Food was okay- but servers were friendly. Front desk staff was helpful.
Possibly my most favourite accommodation that ive eber stayed in! The cabins were spotless and comfortable and the staff and restaurant were fantastic.
You really feel like you're staying in the middle of the beautiful rainforest whilst enjoying comfort. I loved staying here and can't recommend it enough
Right in the rainforest. This place is a great escape and has its own swimming holes. Restaurant was reasonably priced given its remoteness and with good portion sizes. Room was airy and lots of space to move around.

Setting is in the Daintree rain forest and is amazing. Cabins are rustic but adequate, and the beds very comfortable. Great evening meal each night and very friendly and helpful staff.
Food was really nice, frendly staff, spacious cabin with comfortable bed, very quiet, nicely hidden in the jungle so no signal or wifi in the room, but they have a large selection of dvds you can use. There is a swimming pool but You can also enjoy a refreshing dip in a natural swimming hole of the creek.
Excellent ‘rainforest’ experience. Lodges right on the edge of the rainforest, surrounded by lush plant.
Lodges neat, tidy and clean.
Cooper’s Creek swimming holes amazing, absolutely natural creek running through thick rainforest on the property with quick, easy access; swimming morning and night in the creek was the highlight of the stay.
Dinner delicious, a la carte menu and although not cheap the portions were enormous! Continental breakfast included and tasty.
Staff friendly and helpful.
Great stay, highly recommend.

Nice location
Nice location in the Daintree jungle. Rooms were a bit worn out; staff friendly but somewhat passive
Beautiful rainforest location. We loved the honeymoon suite that we stayed in. The property has its own walking tracks and swimming hole on site.
It was lovely to disconnect and spend time in the rainforest.
The free continental breakfast was simple and nice. It was great that was included.
Would definitely stay here again.

The river snd restaurant really great. Aircon is as loud as a jet plane taking off. Rooms a bit tired
Great location. This was the second time we’ve stayed here. Both times we enjoyed the room, wading in Cooper Creek, and had good meals (breakfast and supper) in the restaurant. The following is not a complaint - but be aware that seed pods continually fall from the overhead canopy and onto the sheet metal roofs of the rooms with a large bang - so expect noise day and night from this (both of our stays were in July so this might be seasonal).
Cooper Creek is really the star attraction for this location. Don’t miss going for a wade in the creek!
My husband and I stayed here for a few nights, you could not get any more in the centre of the rainforest if you tried. This spot was beautiful, the creek / swimming holes that run through the property were absolutely stunning to swim in. The cabin we stayed in needs a little work but was clean and perfect for us. The staff were amazing, restaurant food was pricey but really good, the steak was 10/10! Perfect place to stay if you want to explore the rainforest, cape trib ect. Definitely recommend car hire.
