The Canopy Rainforest Treehouses & Wildlife Sanctuary

If you love wildlife experiences, this is the place for you! We had so many animal encounters - all from the privacy of our deck. The most amazing experience came on our second last day, when a tree kangaroo effortlessly scaled a tree right in front of our deck. It kept looking back at us as if to say, 'Are you still watching?' It continued climbing until it was high into the canopy, where we could no longer see it. From our deck we also saw a platypus swim past. We were visited daily by a variety of birds, pademelons and possums. ||The treehouse itself was beautiful. The bed was very comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. We spent many hours just relaxing on the deck, taking in the sights and sounds of the rainforest around us. There was a storm every afternoon which added to the serenity of the rainforest. ||Staying here was incredibly relaxing. It was great not being able to access WiFi from our treehouse because it ensured we disconnected from our busy lives. I would definitely love to go back one day!

I found this place on google and it did not disappoint, you can feed the turtles & birds (the owners provide you turtle & bird food), all the different species of birds is amazing and they have books in the cabins with further information, a must read when you first arrive. Take a pack of cards and get back to basic and communicating with your kids would be my advice :) We seen the platypus's in the evening when we were feeding the turtles (there is no shortage of these). And when walking through the rainforest if you don't want a leech on your foot you may want to use the spray they provide :)

Amazing break in the rainforest. All the nature at your doorstep, beautiful rustic pole homes with deck and BBQ. A good size, bigger than expected. Well equipped kitchen or BBQ if you prefer. Good walking trails around the forrest but remember there are leeches. Gum boots are provided, also insect repellent. Great stay

The canopy tree houses are in a truly magical location.The forrest itself is just superb untouched remnant full of amazing birds , plants and animals. The walking trails are a truly immersive experience. Its like stepping back into prehistoric times. Immediately upon arriving we observed a platypus in the river right in front of our cabin. The cassowary also visited our cabin the next day. The cabins are substantial size and have a cozy, homely and spacious feel . They are clean and nicely presented with wonderfully comfortable beds. There's a fully equipped kitchen , full size fridge and oven making catering for a family or group a breeze. The managers are friendly people who are happy to share their knowledge of the local flora and fauna. Therapeutic massage is also available. A great restorative retreat for relaxation, a romantic getaway or a genuine wilderness experience for the whole family. We are definitely looking forward to our next visit.

Absolutely loved my stay at The Bower House! 🌿 Nestled right in the heart of the rainforest, this place is a nature lover's dream. I had close encounters with brush turkeys, parrots, possums, and even tree kangaroos!||The staff here are fantastic – super friendly and always ready to help. The Bower House itself is amazing: large, comfortable, and equipped with all the amenities you could need. The fireplace was a cozy touch, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring.||The views are simply breathtaking, and waking up to the sounds of the rainforest was an unforgettable experience. Just a heads up, the trails can get a bit muddy after the rain, but it's all part of the adventure!||Highly recommend this place for anyone looking to immerse themselves in nature while enjoying top-notch comfort and hospitality.

The Bower House at Canopy Tree Houses is a remarkable, pole-built house with beautiful views and surroundings. The property is extensive, and there are trails through the forest to explore. ||The house itself is looking a little tired. Around the base of the trim around the downstairs shower is black with mold, there are holes in the walls that need patching and painting, and all the beds creak like antiques. The hand soap, bubble bath, and dish washing liquid were all empty or very close to empty upon arrival and after asking for a refill, took over 24 hours to be supplied. ||These flaws can be overlooked, but what can't be is the lack of hospitality from the hosts/staff. One day the power went out, so we called the reception, and we were told their power was out too, not to worry etc. The problem is the house requires electric power to pump water to the taps and toilets, so from about 8:30 a.m. to mid afternoon (over 6 hours), our party of 6 couldn't get a drink or flush the toilets. The houses are quite remote with no potable water or toilet facilities nearby. From that point, nobody at reception answered the phone or email for over 4 hours, while we were without drinking water, flushing toilets, the ability to wash our hands, and our food was spoiling in the fridge. Eventually, we drove to reception to get some water and explain our predicament. The attitude of the man there was that we were all in the same boat and there was nothing he could or would do. I pointed out I was paying $400 dollars per night to be in a house with no toilet or water, so we were not in fact in the same boat. He then agreed to go and get some water for us to use. The water still took a few hours to show up, and not long later the power came back on after 6 hours being off.||We did a quick Google of the local power company, and, it turns out, it was scheduled maintenance of the local power grid that caused the outage. Businesses would have been notified (according to the supplier website) at least 5 days in advance of the outage. For Canopy Treehouses not to notify us of the outage and come up with a plan to mitigate it seems like a dereliction of duty to their guests, and their attitude when being called out about this was pathetic. At the very least, when we advised we were without sanitary facilities and drinking water at 8:30 am, water should have been immediately provided.||Airbnb agreed that Canopy Treehouses failed in their duty to provide basic amenities and gave us a refund for a nights’ stay. ||Based on our experience, I cannot recommend staying here. Should the Canopy Treehouses ever come under new management, or current management takes their responsibility as a host seriously, I'm sure it would be an excellent place to stay.||P.S. no wifi seems a bit cheap

What we love the most is the animals that came to our balcony day (various birds, like the Victoria's Riflebird family, King Parrot couple, emerald dove) and night (a possum family). Bird seeds and turtle food are provided. The kitchen is well-equipped. There are also walking trails.

What a special place! We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 night stay at the Canopy Treehouse and would have happily stayed longer. This is a stunning pocket of beautiful Bush with private tracks to explore and wildlife a plenty. We were lucky to see platypus, cassowary, tree kangaroo, possum, pademelon, turtles and many parrots/birds. ||The Treehouse itself is beautifully presented with everything you could need for a comfortable self catering stay. ||The hosts were warm, welcoming and generous. Their recommendations helped us explore the region and also see so many great animals/birds.||Would definitely return. It was a great experience for the whole family (we had a 2 year old and grandparents to entertain) everyone left with fond memories and smiles.
