Breathe in the clean country air, amaze yourself with the enormity of the heavens as you stargaze at night. Sit and fish or just wait for the platypus. Walk in the bush and look for koalas. Listen to the burble of the ever flowing river. Swim in pristine waters, kayak the 4 kilometres of river (weather permitting), marvel at the wildlife & the peace. Cuddle the animals or just view from a distance - the choice is yours.

Your accommodation is a one bedroom luxurious cedar cottage with glorious timber floors, world's comfiest sofa, wood fire and luxury linen.

The cottage overlooks the main river flat where many of the animals wander freely. Perched on a hillside, The Tree House has panoramic views of The Milky Way and beyond - leave the curtains open and drift off to sleep under star spangled skies.

This is a healing place. You will return refreshed to your world from our beautiful riverside oasis. The Tree House is made of wood, filled with timber furniture both antique and new - it will soothe your tired mind and feed your weary soul.

Come back to your heart, reconnect with your soul, ground yourself in this beautiful place and return, refreshed, to your reality.
