Guest Reviews

• Eeva (8/5): Amazing weekend - Amazing location in the rainforest; you can see tree kangaroos, wallabies, birds, etc. Comfy, great jacuzzi overlooking the forest, and a fireplace. Breakfast included for you to cook and welcome drinks. Very quiet and peaceful. Excellent if you like watching wildlife and relaxing. 5min drive to Yungaburra. Dishwasher not working/pan needs to be changed, dirty barbecue. The tree house could use a little touch-up, particularly in the bathroom.
• Жеребило (10/5): Our stay was perfect — we loved every single moment ❤️ - We absolutely loved everything… I honestly can’t point out a single thing we didn’t like — every detail was thoughtfully done and brought us joy. Everything was simply wonderful, from the atmosphere to the smallest touches. Thank you for this beautiful getaway — one we would love to come back to again and again ❤️
• Ashley (10/5): -
• Gillian (7/5): -
• MARK (10/5): Such a peaceful spot - Location
• Karyn (10/5): -
• Mark (9/5): Lovely location, terrific views. Very clean and comfortable. - Bugs somehow still managed to get inside at night despite the screens.
• Fimmel (7/5): Great spot. Don't book for Christmas. - Most comfortable bed I've slept in. Beautiful, tranquil space, even during the rain period. A tip would be not to book around Christmas. Even though I was sent links and notified of the additional packages such as meals, roses and reading about the amazing welcome basket with scones, I was notified that due to the time of year and staff on holidays, I wasn't able to add the additional items/Romantic packages. I do understand staff holidays etc, but would suggest not to send links introducing the additional packages if they're not available for the specific period of my stay. No welcome basket/scones for us on arrival. Instead we had a box of short bread cookies and sparkling wine, so an effort was made. Funnily enough, the staff had still supplied the fresh cream and jams intended for the scones that weren't supplied. Luckily we had some crossoints to use them with, instead.
• Arnold (10/5): -
• milligan (10/5): -
• Zayne (10/5): 10/10 spot - Everything Nothing, couldn’t fault it
• Mark (10/5): -
• Deseree (9/5): Loved it all - Breakfast lasted us the two days. Fabulous sitting on the deck and just immersing oneself in the rainforest .
• Frederick (10/5): - We stayed 2 nights . The treehouse was excellent clean and luxurious . Wonderful breakfast provided . Full kitchen facilities as well. Georgeous views over green pastures with mountains in the distance . Enjoyed our stay very much . Peace and quiet yet central to all the Tablelsnds offers
• Edwina (10/5): -
• Davina (10/5): Was absolutely amazing. The food was fresh and good quality. The room was beautiful and clean. It had everything you - So private and peaceful. Felt like we were the only ones there. Warning about the amount of snakes on the crater walking track.
• Kakahu (7/5): -
• Robyn (10/5): -
• Serena (10/5): Great experience - This s our third stay at Mt Quincan. We love the tree top cabins. They are cosy and rustic, and you have a real chance of seeing tree kangaroos. We walked around the crater , and on the second night saw two female tree kangaroos, one with an older joey and one just poking its head out of the pouch. There is also plenty of bird life, skinks and geckos to keep you amused. A fantastic experience. . Will come back again.
• Patrick (8/5): - Location and unique design of accommodation that gives guests a treetop view. The breakfast provisions were appreciated. Wildlife, especially the tree kangaroos The place was very cold in the mornings (in winter), and although there was a fireplace, there wasn't enough kindling or fire starters provided. Reception only opened for 90-minutes per day, so not much help readily available.
• Yolande (4/5): - good couldn't get the fire going not enough kindling, The couch and cushions smelled mouldy
• Steph (10/5): Exceptional -
• Clayton (10/5): Exceptional -
• Rachel (4/5): Overall a very disappointing stay and certainly not worth the luxurious price tag. - Breakfast pack provided was adequate. Website showed amazing 180 deg views over the tablelands and Crater. However the treehouse I was given, over the crater, had at most a 10 degree view of part of the crater, rest of the view was blocked by rainforest scrub. Very disappointing. It should be advertised as a rainforest canopy cabin with a glimpse of the Crater. See photo of crater view from cabin deck.0 The bed is way too soft, and lumpy, like a marshmallow. If you have a bad back or knee issues it's very uncomfortable. And if you're a stomach sleeper, forget it, you get bent backwards. Terrible night sleep. No mention of the steep slippery paths to access the cabin was on the website. If you have mobility issues, like a dodgy knee, it will be a challenge. No step stool provided in kitchen. I'm not overly short at 5'4, but I still couldn't reach the top shelves in the kitchen.   The TV was smaller than my computer monitor.
• Kyle (8/5): Very good -
• Adrian (5/5): Passable - Beautiful location and accomadation. Experienced tree kangaroos from our balcony. Not enough food or vegetarian option for breakfast. Casual backpackers in active wear who where unsure of what they should be doing or saying. High end price for low end service.
• Alan (10/5): - We loved the cabin and all of the luxurious and thoughtful touches.
• Trisha (10/5): Exceptional - Complimentary breakfast was amazing. Was very comfortable. Got to see possums and tree kangaroos Nothing
• Belinda (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful accommodation. Tree kangaroos visited our tree house frequently. We love that we can (gas) BBQ at the verandah. The bath overlooking the crater / nature is so beautiful.
• Danielle (10/5): Great for a romantic night or two. - The 180 degree windows made for an immersive experience. The breakfast made our stay extra special. It was quiet and peaceful. And the jacuzzi tub was big enough for myself and my 6’2” husband! Only the short crater walk was open and there were 2 dead wallabies on the not so scenic path. This shouldn’t be sold as even a trail.
• Faingresh (10/5): Exceptional - The most amazing place we've ever been! On a mountain, in the middle of wild nature, equipped with everything you want. The main attraction is of course the amazing animals that surround the room. Really recommended.
• Lesley (10/5): Perfect place to recharge - Very private, relaxing and comfortable. Location was perfect, nature right on the doorstep. Loved it. Nothing
• Colin (9/5): You got what you paid for. Special place for special occasion. - Unique bespoke private cabin in jungle in special location on rim of dormant volcano.
• Ryan (10/5): Exceptional -
• Megan (10/5): - Beautiful place, made for a wonderful 10 year wedding anniversary!
• Allan and Jenny (10/5): - Loved our stay. Peaceful, relaxing, felt very pampered with the luxurious towels, robes and spa. Nothing we didn't like about it.
• Ben (10/5): Exceptional -
• Fryer (10/5): Quiet and relaxing just what we needed - Brilliant and heaps of it Comfy chairs on balcony
• Mark (10/5): Relaxing escape! - The fact that you could do as much or as little as you wanted. The views, hottub, and fireplace. The wildlife. The little touches (complementary items e.g. port, chocolates, breakfast, freshly baked scones and bread). Having to leave 😕
• Paul (10/5): Exceptional -
• Chintha (6/5): Disappointed - Scenery around the accommodation. I clearly informed the accommodation I am vegetarian and they said they would take care of this while preparing breakfast. Unfortunately, they kept the vegetables which was meant to be for me and sausages for my daughter in one big plate. Liquid from the sausages were everywhere on the plate which was mixed with vegetables. Regardles of dietary restrictions it felt unhygienic to put vegetables, mushrooms and meat products together. I also highly recommend to take enough food when staying at this place. Restaurants and cafes at nearby towns close early. Additionally, we thought the place could have done with some renovations as it generally felt a bit outdated. Online it was advertised that there were several walking tracks around the summit and to the base of the crater, however, there was no clear signage. Generally the place was in a beautiful location, perfect for a getaway. Expect to see some beautiful sunsets and sunrises.
• Grace (10/5): Exceptional - Loved the scones on arrival, the fireplace and spa bath so good. The bed super comfy! Had a great trip.
• Lisa (10/5): Exceptional - Every little detail was anticipated and catered for, attention to detail was impeccable. We should have booked a third night.
• Andy (8/5): Extremely enjoyable and relaxing - Very thoughtful as regards diet requirements. Well set out for all little creature comforts The Lat night noisy neighbours in paddock below retreat
• Brett (10/5): Wonderful relaxing stay in a beautiful part of the world. Excellent accommodation. - Peaceful location. Attention to detail.
• Atherton (10/5): We loved our time at Mt Quincan, it was so central to everything and such a beautiful setting. We were definitely looked - The setting was so picturesque and peaceful. We were amazed at the special touches the owner had left for us to enjoy. The homemade bread was delicious.
• Catherine (10/5): Loved it!! - Loved the tranquility, very comfortable bed, fully equipped kitchen. Lovely hosts. Recommend ordering the food platters, limited dinner options close by.
• Emi (10/5): Exceptional -
• Ralph (10/5): Exceptional -
• Alanna (9/5): Superb -
• Carolyn (9/5): Superb -
• Misha (6/5): Okay but overpriced by $100 per night for what it is - The remoteness Screens broken so lots of mosquitoes and need to keep them open for air
• Jasmine (10/5): Excellent - Staff were very professional and friendly and very helpful.
• Felicity (9/5): Superb -
• Judy (10/5): Exceptional -
• Juanita (10/5): Private sanctuary - Quiet and peaceful, felt like you were the only two people around. The reef and beef meal was fresh and delicious. A nice and relaxing place to unwind. Loved seeing the birds and tree kangaroos throughout the stay.
• Jayne (8/5): Very good - Fantastic location to rekindle the relationship. No internet, no phone, silence just you and nature. Awesome rural views Unable to hike to the summit. Next time hopefully it will be reopened
• Rebecca (9/5): Couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay for my birthday weekend. - The location is spectacular. Views are awesome. Feel like you’re a world away from home. From the moment you open the door everything is amazing.
• Sergey (10/5): Exceptional -
• Taylah (10/5): Exceptional -
• Glenn (7/5): Good - Every thing was excellent The mattress needs replacing
• Travel (9/5): Piece of tranquillity - The location was unreal. Every little thing for catered for. For the price, we think it is time to upgrade some of the fixtures/fittings like tap ware and benches. Just to keep it fresh looking.
• Kita (9/5): Superb -
• Wendy (10/5): Exceptional -
• Mike (10/5): Private treehouse set in amazing surrounds with everything provided for our stay. - Amazing private treehouse set among bush and overlooking the crater. Quiet, Spacious and comfortable with everything that you would need. Freshly baked scones waiting on our arrival. Great spread of local foods for the complimentary breakfast. The deck overlooked the crater, perfect for watching the wildlife, complete with the friendly possum. BBQ provided. Complimentary port. The small touches were truely appreciated. Nothing. It was perfect.
• Matthew (9/5): An incredible getaway that everybody should experience. - An amazing experience that everybody should encounter at some point during their lives. A “getaway” in the true sense of the word, it’s like living in a different country for 2-3 days. The property itself was incredible, with a bird’s eye view of the tree-kangaroos out the back. The hot tub and the bed were both very comfortable. There were also some nice touches designed for a couple’s retreat, including complementary port, chocolates, scones and even a dual shower! My only gripes were poor quality DVDs (The Bonfire of the Vanities anyone?) and when I went up to reception to request some more, reception was un-manned and unresponsive on not one but two occasions.
• Charlotte (10/5): Amazing, definitely recommend it! - From the very beginning, the online communication with the staff was easy. When we arrived, there were chickens wandering down the path leading to the cabin. The breakfast selection in the fridge was quite impressive: sausages, eggs, fresh fruit, milk, orange juice, and even some fresh bread with clotted cream and jam. If we had known, we wouldn't have bought our own food beforehand! Despite the unpredictable and rainy weather, the staff at reception were always available to provide us with the latest weather updates, especially since the cabin did not have wifi. The cabin itself was a truly romantic spot: it boasted two showers, a luxurious spa bath, and a veranda with a breathtaking view over the crater. One evening, we even had the pleasure of seeing bats on our balcony! Given its charm, I can completely understand why people would want to get married at this enchanting spot. Coming from the Netherlands, it's a shame it's on the other side of the world for us, otherwise, we'd be staying here more often. If you're looking for a place to relax and escape from the daily grind, this is the place to be. Absolutely fantastic! While having WiFi would have been convenient, it wasn't necessarily missed. In fact, being without it added to the charm of being immersed in the tropical forests, allowing for a genuine disconnect from the digital world.
• Elisabeth (9/5): Superb - the location and the wonderful views
• Brendon (10/5): The best couples place we been too… 😘🍷❤️ - Secluded … peaceful… away from the world … view …. Spa… fire… No much
• Anonymous (10/5): Cosy, tranquil and relaxing - Quiet, natural beauty
• Patricia (8/5): Very good -
• Vicki (10/5): Exceptional - The cabin was amazing. The bed was super comfortable, like sleeping on a cloud. It was very quiet and peaceful and had everything that we needed to relax for a couple of days.
• Ulrike (9/5): Superb -
• Gobel (9/5): Superb -
• Alicia (10/5): We will be back for our 1st year anniversary - Our stay was absolutely amazing. The retreat was beautiful. The location was beautiful. Welcome basket was amazing. We stayed 2 nights and wanted to stay longer. The toilet didn’t flush well.
• Wayne (8/5): The room was well appointed and the stay was enjoyable. A little on the expensive side by about $50 - Good In hindsight I would have preferred a view of the hinterland rather than the crater. As it was my first stay I wasn't aware that there was an option to have a hinterland view.
• Paige (9/5): Superb -
• Terence (10/5): Exceptional - the seclusion
• Dain (10/5): 100% Recommend - Absolutely amazing, we attend every year for our wedding anniversary and it never disappoints. The wood fire is a pleasant feature to the room and minimal phone service lets you kick back relax and switch off to the outside world.
• Barbara (10/5): Exceptional - Spacious with log burning fire and lovely spa bath. Everything supplied for cooking and king size bed with quality linen. Nice balcony overlooking crater and wildlife. Door lock not working so had to take personal items with us. One outside light flickering near balcony.
• Ware (9/5): Memorable, tranquil and unique - Everything Nothing
• Birgit (8/5): Great getaway. Beautiful accommodation. - beautiful! Just perfect for a getaway. there was nothing
• Shannon (10/5): Exquisite, unique experience that made the perfect escape! - The view was stunning. Very private and secluded. The included breakfast was delicious and the scones on arrival were such a lovely surprise and perfect after our long drive there. It is a red dirt road to the accommodation, so keep that in mind. It didn’t worry us at all! The bathroom is closed in all sides, but open at the top. Just another thing to keep in mind.
• Clyde (9/5): Superb -
• John (9/5): Superb - The peace & quiet was fantastic, as was the scenery & the fresh air Having to leave
• Ruth (10/5): Exceptional -
• Tracey (7/5): It was very relaxing. Beautiful views - I believe it would be really good if there was a restaurant
• Eleanor (10/5): Exceptional -
• Teresa (10/5): Exceptional -
• Janelle (8/5): Very good -
• Whitney (10/5): Exceptional - It was absolutely perfect! The accommodation, the views, trails, near by attractions, everything was wonderful. A definite must stay.
• Boe (10/5): best romantic relaxing weekend away I have ever had - beautiful cabins love the lay out very clean and comfortable stay would definitely stay again we didn’t want to leave nothing
• Carolyn (9/5): very comfortable, exceptionally clean which is impressive given that it’s surrounded by rainforest - perfectly appointed, secluded, attention to detail, everything you need the pumpkin bread was AMAZING!!! walking map could be improved with some text to reinforce you haven’t strayed from the intended trail
• Kathy (8/5): Very good -
• Stephanie (8/5): Excellent location, service could be a bit better - Location is very nice. The cabin wonderfully located between the trees. Such a nice view. Service could be a bit better for the price. Rooms are not made, you only see the host when you arrive. At arrival you get a basket with some supplies and you find a large plate with meat for breakfast in the fridge and other supplies.I think a house like this should care a bit more for the individual taste and also deliver fresh bread. Also, we had three big cockroaches in the room.
• Boto (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful view, beautiful location and very peaceful
• Shellee (10/5): Absolutely a dream come true 💕🍾🥂 - the view was unreal ❤️ tv not in a good spot
• Jay (9/5): Superb -
