Nothing we didn’t like

We loved the open nature of the Lodge - it was amazing to be able to fall asleep and wake up to rainforest sounds! The swimming holes were very popular with our kids!

The area had been heavily affected by typhoon in december. Roads were partially closed and only residents and those with booked rooms allowed through. Could not make it to cape tribulation. We were here in feb which is not the best season they say and with typhoon even worse. Being from Spain we were not really aware and a little more information upfront would have been nice. Anyway the huts were fine. Only the house down close to the entry had been hit by floods. All the residential areas kitchen and all were in perfect conditions.

Location is fantastic. In the middle of the rainforest. Eco huts very simple but comfortable. Netting to keep the bugs out. Incredible the noises at night. All sorts of creatures out there. Just like camping in the middle of the forest but in the comfort of a room with bed and shower. Really nice experience. The swim down in Noah’s creek is amazing, refreshing really in the rainforest and you can walk up to a bigger swim hole 300 m upstream. Kitchen and bbq area fully equipped. Wifi and electricity in this area. Huts have only small light and ubs charging points. Best bring your own food to cook. Lots of walks and hiking around the area. Beach close by, beautiful views but no swimming due to stingers and crocodiles. Staff very friendly and eager to give advice and help you get used to what is a very different environment to what we were used to.

The whole place was magical. We loved bathing in the outdoor shower and bath surrounded by tropical plants. We were here not long after cyclone Jasper hit, so most places in Daintree were closed and there were no other guests. We had to cancel a few tours we booked because of the cyclone but we think that was a blessing in disguise since it gave us time to relax, cook delicious meals in the outdoor kitchen, cool off in the swimming hole a few minutes walk away, walk north along the closed road, helped clear some of the deadfall along one of the trails (we volunteered). There were so many different rainforest sounds in the day and at night. The 5 nights we were there we didn’t use our car to get anywhere, other than when we arrived and left! We will be back one day in the future.

Nothing

Really nicely built and finished. You feel really close to nature but with all the comfort of a high end hotel, we felt like we experienced more of the daintree here than we did on any tour

Loved everything!

Location was absolutely amazing with beautiful views and surrounded by rainforest. Very peaceful stay and the Ridge House was clean and had everything we needed. Insect nets fully covering each bed made us feel safe and comfortable whilst sleeping.

Very peaceful and serene place! I especially loved the common area next to the river. Spending time in the hammock there, listening to the sound of the water was so soothing! We also loved the swimming hole and the hiking trails on the property. The owners are super lovely and caring.

The pictures don't do any justice, this place is beyond beautiful and serene. Don't forget to bring your tracking shoes, there are heaps of beautiful trails on this property. The owners and their children are so welcoming and nice, thanks so much and we'll definitely come back!

We loved ALL of it!

Private property in the Daintree national park with great walks. Walks were graded and suitable for all levels. Eco huts were wonderfully basic with plenty of protection from mosquitoes, and the indoor-outdoor bathroom was fantastic! The camp kitchen is fully stocked; the only thing they don’t have is ice for the Eski they provide. Service was awesome. Saw a chameleon gecko, Cassowary and lace monitor!

Outdoor lights for shower at night. Internal hiking could have been signposted better. We got a little lost on the fossil falls hike.

Cleanliness of group kitchen. Outdoor shower was delightful.

It would be good that the communal fire pit gets started by the host

There could have been a few extra things in the kitchen like butter, mayo, cheese grater etc that would’ve been really helpful and prevented waste.

Amazing location and the perfect place to enjoy the Daintree and unwind. Swims in the creek every morning were the best way to start the day!

It far exceeded my expectations, a beautiful spot in the middle of the rain forest! Bonus points for no Internet and board games. Lodge was confirmation and self contained and we loved it!

Stayed in October 2023

Beds were harder than necessary and no other place to be in the rain

Location especially access to walking tracks and wonderful swimming hole

Everything about this place was perfect. Had a blast exploring the rainforest. Loved the fact I had no phone service, So I had to put the phone down for once and live a little bit.

Nothing, and will definitely come back!

The nature the tranquility and freedom of having all we need.

The hut was just a tiny bit small - not much room for luggage. The outside patio was great but with such heavy rain, we couldn't leave anything outside on the deck.

extensive property with beautiful walks, staff were personable, warm and welcoming. beds were comfortable, outside ensuite was delightful. Hammock and chairs on patio/deck. Excellent camp kitchen.

The sign-posting for the walks needs to be seriously updated as we got lost many times and heard the same from other guests when we came across each other in the communal kitchen. I am sad that there was no mention at all that we were on Kuku Yalanji country and the absence of any mention is consistent with the attitudes I came across from white people in northern Queensland. I am white too - but having grown up in South Africa under apartheid, before it was thankfully eradicated in 1991, I felt like I had gone back to the past .

Georgeous location

Stayed in July 2023

We loved the location in the forest, although a little close to the main road, but that was not too bad at night when it was time to go to sleep. We stayed in the Ochre Hut and this was just fabulous, better than all expectations, loved it, had everything you need for the perfect glamping retreat. We also saw the resident Cassowary, she was very big and very lovely indeed. Sat around our own private fire every evening and at night we slept very very well, comfortable bed and all the night time forest calls were just magic.
