Crater Lakes Rainforest Cottages is a place where the wildlife comes to you. Relax on your deck and feed the cute pademelons that come up to see you, and the rainforest birds. You might be lucky to see the male Victorias Riflebird performing his mating dance right in front of you. The cottage themselves are fantastic as well, lots of personal touches, with everything that you will need. Plus the wood fire for winter, and spa bath for extra relaxation.
We were drawn to this property because of the beautiful rainforest setting and close distance to Lake Eacham. But it is the wildlife that has mesmerized us. Nothing is more relaxing than watching the wildlife.
The Atherton Tablelands is a great place to visit. Rolling green hills, and lakes and waterfalls formed from a volcanic past. There are lots of natural attractions to visit, and wonderful scenery, with little historic townships dotted in between.
