Well worth visiting, even as a day trip. Beautiful, pretty, easy walks with spectacular rainforest scenery and lots of waterfalls. Bring your bathers to have a swim in the waterfall pools and streams. Drive slowly up there cos its nicer but also to avoid running over the cute little jumping Pademelons. You can tell there has been less public investment in Parks/conservation in QLD compared to NSW and Vic so expect the facilities, including walking paths, to be more like 1980s-era elsewhere. Also QLD appears to be struggling to keep up with cleaning up after the continual stream of natural disasters, so check what tracks are open. Definitely shop for groceries and treats before you go. There is a small grocery shop / pub / fast food just opened up there but stocks are very limited & they are still finding their feet. There are no night time restaurants/food (only day time). The locally-designed map of Springbrook is useful but it is not completely accurate - eg the location of English Tea Gardens is not near/at Springbrook Retreat. Highly recommend going to the English Tea Gardens. It has lovely indoor and garden settings and has the best fresh scones i have had in a long time. And in addition to English teas they offer divine Taiwanese teas. There is also tasteful rustic pottery for sale (it is run by a lovely elderly Taiwanese couple). There are also a few other nice places to have a day- time meals and snacks, including vegetarian offerings. On the way to/from Springbrook, just before the hill climb, there is a lovely large casual garden restaurant/tea stop called Bonappetea. They do High Teas, casual meals, tasting plates (including vegetarian food) and are popular for small events.

Springbrook is a beautiful natural environment. It is best to bring food with you because there are limited places to eat out. If you like being close to some great walking trails and experiencing nature then Springbrook is the place to visit.

The facilities were fantastic , surrounded by trees , an abundance of flora and fauna . Parrots eating from your hand just outside your room unbelievable . Paddy melons wandering through yard . Wake up to sound of nature not cars fantastic . Owners very informative and helpful . A great stay .

A warm welcome at reception. The chalet was cosy, relaxing and had sufficient facilities. The hot tub was amazing after a days walking. Kichen was equipped with plenty utensils. Bed very comfortable. The fire was fantastic, kept us toasty and warm in the evening. Beautiful colourful birds fly to the bird tables to feed, bird seed is in a pot in the chalet kitchen so you can feed the lovely birds. Close to the National Park.

The cabin was such a romantic little getaway, loved everything about it. Not close to a lot of restaurants (about an hour plus drive), so definitely recommend cooking, except it definitely needs more kitchenware in the house and definitely an oven. Easy and close to find rainforest tracks.

The whole trip was wonderful. Beautiful bush walks, the birds and possums were gorgeous, couldn't recommend a place any higher. Loved it so much, I've pre booked for same time next year. Great hosts!!
