    the access to the swimming pool could be better.

    We had a really lovely chalet, which was well equipped and the hot tub was perfect. The walk to the waterfall that goes from the farm was the best part. It rained a lot so was quite mucky, but the waterfall was really impressive.

    A true piece of heaven in the rainforest of QSL with your very own waterfall to trek to and swim in... gorgeous spa outside the chalet to relax in and 5 star amenities and equipment!! Liz and Andy are wonderful hosts. Liz cooked us an amazing breakfast, and Andy treated us to an adventurous ride in his ATV to cassowary falls. Bear the German Shepard is friendly! The infinity swimming pool is a marvel 👌 Its by far the best way to experience the beauty of QLD mystic forest.

    Incredible location. Very thoughtfully put together. Amazing hot tub, view, and breakfast. The mushrooms are a must! And the tour down to the waterfall is brilliant - as we were guests of the property Andy let us walk back ourselves (it’s about 20-30 minutes) and spend as long as we wanted by the waterfall after the tour departed. Magical.

    The beds, awesome bed but had a split down the middle which opened up.

    The breakfast was great especially the mushrooms. The location was superb, close enough to explore but also secluded enough to just chill out and enjoy each other's company.

    For me personally a softer bed. BUT then I have Polymyalgia and a frozen shoulder so suffer from pain. The bed was huge with a lovely feather topper and would suit most people very well. My husband found it very comfortable. Cant think of anything else I didnt like!!

    Location was amazing. Peaceful, beautiful, great views, stunning property. Only about 50minutes drive into Port Douglas so a great place for peace and tranquilty but still able to partake in the Port activities. Butterflies - so many, so beautiful. Great ride up to beautiful Cassowary Falls with Andy, the host, meeting the local eels, fish and turtles. The accommodation was so well presented with great facilities - loved the spa, the comfy chairs on the deck, the thoughtful touches such as fresh butter and milk in the fridge, lots of ice in the freezer, plenty of coffee including a choice, the grapefruit dropping off the trees outside were delicious. Of and how could I forget the breakfast! Those mushrooms were amazing and so was everthing on the plate. Thank you to our 5 star hosts.

    The only thing we didn't like was the drive to the property. It's about two miles of gravel roads and a gravel hill up the driveway at the property, neither of which we knew about when making the reservation. The rental car agreement specifically did not allow driving on unfinished, gravel roads, so we were likely violating the terms/conditions and not insured. Luckily, we did not have any issues but it was a little stressful, especially with the rain.

    Loved the property - the views, the solitude, the butterflies, the hot tub. The hike to the waterfall was a highlight of the two weeks in Australia! The breakfast was great too and Andy was very accommodating as a host! We would absolutely considering coming back on a future trip.

    There is nothing to complain about, everything was great.

    The waterfall is the highlight you could not visit without going to the waterfall, swimming there is amazing. The accommodation is fantastic with great views and the whole place is so welcoming and peaceful. I will be back again and wholeheartedly recommend that anyone who wants to visit the Daintree stays here.

    Breath taking views, exceptional service, food and facilities. the owners of cassowary falls have thought of every little detail to make this in my opinion, the number #1 destination for the upper daintree. Do yourself a favour and make sure you do the guided falls tour! Such an amazing experience and a very special place. Thanks again.
