Chambers Wildlife Rainforest Lodges

Great experience as well as stay! Great location for exploring the rainforest, lakes and waterfalls in surrounding areas. A little tricky to find/sort dinner if you arrive a little late so bring supplies. ||Great value stay for what you get for your money. Room was really big with a lounge area and fully equipped kitchen. Super clean and all the things you may need for a longer stay too. Bed was comfy, crisp sheets and was so nice to wake up to the rainforest right at the window. ||Heated pool and beautiful decking area you can use while being right in the middle of the rainforest. So peaceful & tranquil with all the bird songs. Best facility was however, the nocturnal viewing platform - saw so many possums, gliders and bandicoots that you wouldn't usually see during the day. Its a great addition to the property.||Great service too - shout out to the guy on the desk at 10am on 27.08 - he was a multi-tasker extraordinaire. A non-guest chatting his ear off about birds, he knew all the answers and was super polite considering he wasn't staying there, all the while processing my payment a few times and checking another guest in. He was every bit professional, helpful and knowledgeable about the area. Gold star!||Would definitely recommend.

The rooms are quite basic but very comfortable and our unit was very close to the bushline - both front and back. There are the basic amenities and the kitchen had enough for everything we needed for our overnight stay. Our bed was perfectly comfortable and we had a great sleep. The walking track is in need of some attention - quite challenging along the creek part and lacking in any signage - but it is a tranquil walk amongst the rain forest flora. We also had a nice view of some of the smaller nocturnal feeders in the evening at the feeding shelter.

Situated right in the rainforest, this place has a super setting if you're into birds and wildlife. We saw the opposum and the sugar glider for 3 out of 4 nights though you have to be patient. We stayed in lodge 6 and found that putting out banana and papaya attracted cat birds and, once, a rifle bird. Best time was around 645 when dawn chorus is loud.|Rooms are well equipped but dark as you are next to the forest. |Noteworthy was the kindnesses patience of the manageress as she spent at least half an hour helping us send paperwork to uk. Perhaps they could have monitored room more eg for toilet paper.

I spent one night at Chambers Wildlife Rainforest Lodges on my way through the area for work. The owners were lovely when I arrived and I felt very welcome. The rooms are private, have everything you need and are very comfortable and clean. The walk from the accommodation and around Lake Eacham is stunning and a wonderful activity after a long drive. I enjoyed the wildlife viewing in the evening with other guests and had an incredible sleep. I'm hoping to bring my family here soon and enjoy a longer stay!

The highest of stars possible is given to Chambers Wildlife Rainforest Lodge. From the very beginning of a cyclone-impacted trip, the staff of Chambers was very easy to work with. We had to change our days when Brisbane airport closed and we were re-routed to Sidney. They were pleasant and, compared to some of the venders, made us feel welcome. The lodge rooms are equipped with a small kitchenette, 2 reclining chairs, a comfortable bed and very clean bathroom. Each room has a deck with table and chairs and a rail used to entice birds to come closer. The pavilion used for the night viewing was a pleasant surprise and we saw animals each night, even in the rain! Kudos to whomever compiled the information folder left in each room, describing things to see and do in the area, local shops and restaurants, and what animals were possible to see. When the staff was told my husband was immunocompromised and needed bottled water, they brought us some. (The Foodworks in Jungaburra sells a large container of filtered water also) I wish we would have spent more than 3 nights there! We used Chambers as a hub to go out and visit the Cathedral Fig, Malanda Falls, Lake Eachem and more. Thanks Chambers! (note: our weather was cool and we did not need A/C. If you visit during the hottest months, that ?may? be a problem???)

Nice chalets in the middle of a nice forest. Riflebirds ans Catbirds will visit your veranda when you leave some fruit. Extra bonus are the flying squirrels and striped opossums that visit the feeders at night. Friendly and helpful people and good coffee available in the early morning.

We had one night here in May and of course seeing the animals at night was the attraction for me. However we found the accommodation really nice modern inside with a beautiful bathroom Watching to see who would come and lick the honey from the tree I could have watched for hours. Wish we could have stayed another night

We stayed two nights in early May. This hotel was relatively inexpensive and did not have AC so I was a little concerned it would be a roughing it type experience. I was so impressed with our one bedroom apartment! It was clean and cool even without AC. Elevated off the ground on a second floor with a balcony and the birds really did come and eat fruit off the balcony railings in the morning. The room had a dehumidifier which worked quite well. There were 3 of us in this place and we had a lot of space, two rooms and a full kitchen. It was very comfortable and quiet except for the noise of the rain on the roof. They even did a load of laundry for us which was very convenient. There are walking trails to Lake Eacham and we loved the viewing platform where you could sit in the evening and watch for wildlife. We saw Sugar gliders and a possum. We thought it would be a lot of mosquitos but did not notice any. It was very quiet and pleasant. The lodge had coffee. The room itself had instant coffee and tea and pots and pans but no coffeemaker so it was vital that the lodge had one. This was a great location for exploring the waterfalls in the area. We also did the trail around the lake which was muddy, as we were there on two rainy days. WE tried the pool at the lodge and that was great also. It was a quiet place with pleasant fellow guests at the viewing platform. It was nice to be able to cook. WE also went to the Yungaburra hotel to eat, which was recommended by the Hotel owners, and this was a great recommendation.
