I like everything inside the cottage, but if more lights to be installed in the complex would be perfect as I noticed only one light is working. The solar lights didn’t work making the roads & paths very dark in night time.
Cradle Mountain Wilderness Village offers self-contained accommodation, nestled in a rainforest setting with native wildlife throughout the property.

Well appointed cabins with heating, good hot shower, great location 2 mins drive from the Visitor Centre. Staff at check in were wonderful. We always stay here when we are visiting Cradle! Has everything you need for self catered meals after a long day of hiking.

Hotel is conveniently located near to Cradle Mountain Trails. We appreciate the heater in the bathroom & free use of laundry machines. We like that we could relax in front of the fire place at the library area reading or socialising with other guests.
Boasting cottages and holiday cabins with cooking facilities, Discovery Parks - Cradle Mountain is just 800 metres from The Wilderness Gallery. Guests have access to laundry and BBQ facilities.

Great communication and meeting our needs with baby. Location is perfect, close to the visitor centre and shuttle to go for walks. Cabin is nice and well heated which we definitely needed, and has everything you need.
Staff were all really nice and helpful, thank you!

Our cabin, Brushtail, was lovely and warm when we arrived, and also very quiet being the last in a row with plenty of bush between the cabins. It was clean and had plenty of room and everything needed for a longer stay. wish we had more than 2 nights. Location was great...a short walk to the Visitor Centre to catch the shuttle bus to the lake. we also walked down to the Devils@Cradle. There are no food options at Cradle Highlander, but all the facilities in your cabin to prepare a meal, or a short drive to one of the restaurants. Nice big bathroom
The bed was very comfortable only problem was getting to it.
The bed was very comfortable only problem was getting to it. We are both a bit old to climb the ladder up to the bed. If we where younger
It would not have been a problem. Loved where it was and thought it was brilliant what had been done in such a small place. Would recommend if climbing a steep few stairs is easy for you. It was spotless and had everything we needed.

Beautiful setting and the room was lovely.
Beautiful setting and the room was lovely.
We had Pademelon roaming right under our cabin and our resident Kookaburra in the tree.
Very remote but we knew that which made for the great experience of being in the wilderness.
Close proximity to get to the National Park without the huge expense of other accommodation options. It is remote so eating options weren't there but we were informed of this and took our own supplies picked up along the way.
No wifi but again no issue as we knew this.
Would definitely recommend and stay again.

We didn't see much of Moina, to be honest, as we spent all our time at the National Park walking. It was a good area, though, as it was as close as we could find to Cradle Mountain accommodation and it was a very decent space.
We loved the personal car parking space right beside our cabin and the deck with its small table and two chairs. The garden wasn't actually forest immediately in front of the cabin but there were many gums not far distant and it was green and quiet around the cottage. We did see a padelemon after dusk.
The room was well equipped (better instructions re microwave and heater would be helpful, though) and the shower was good. Nice crockery but larger mugs would surely be appreciated. Not many accommodations seem to offer good mug sizes anymore.
Overall we found it comfortable and very pleasant and we'd stay again if ever we are back in that area.

Cradle Forest Inn, what an magical place to stay.
Cradle Forest Inn, what an magical place to stay.
From the driveway to the door we knew we were about experience something special. Say goodbye to NO internet and hello to resetting the clock.
A touch of old world charm meets rustic cabin lends itself to a romantic, cosy place to snuggle with your lover whilst sipping on a hot cup of soup to warm you from the brisk winter's temperature.
Sit back and watch a movie on SBS or marvel at the Pademelon, Wallabies and Currawongs that give into there curiosities of the humans behind the glass door as they venture onto the timber deck's.
So bring your playful and positive attitude, be young and in love again as you snuggle in bed, as you talk about the wonderful life you've shared.
Eat, sleep repeat.
Thank you for the privilege of staying in Dragonfly.

Short distance drive to Cradle Mountain.
Short distance drive to Cradle Mountain. Not much to do around, but I guess that's the good thing about this location: it forces you to rest your mind and enjoy nature. If driving before sunrise or after sunset, be really careful and slow, there are so many animals crossing the road.

Close enough to Cradle Mountain to make it a realistic choice for those that want to avoid the crowds.
Stock up on food/supplies in Sheffield (or arrive fully equipped) because the good/bad news is there are no facilities at Moina.
A little over 20 minutes to the Cradle Mountain Visitors' Centre in the daytime, but the nighttime drive from the Cradle Mountain Hotel restaurant to Moina took about 30 minutes ... giving us time to count 5 wombats, 1 devil, 1 brushtail, and 73 pademelons & Bennett's wallabies.
An incredible location and stay! A beautiful location and beautiful tiny location to stay in. We had booked for one night but had wished we stayed for 2. The quiet nature and wildlife with incredible views really makes for a unique and enjoyable stay compared to hotels. We have already shared this with our friends and family as a must stay location! A full size bathroom and full equipped kitchen with everything you need to have a romantic dinner in.
Cradle Mountain and resort restaurants are only a 15 minute drive away.
Wombat Cabin is rustic, remote, quiet, but with electricity and hot water! Extra breakfast groceries provided gave us more eating flexibility - much appreciated. Great wood stove heats up the whole place.
On our Tassie trip, the big hotels we stayed at were fine, but Wombat Cabin was the most memorable, positive experience.
Location was as expected. Our plane was delayed by two hours. We were contacted by the hotel informing us last dinner booking was at 7.30 our ETA was 8.15. We asked for some pasta and salad with a bottle of wine which was accommodated happily though we had to eat it in our unit.
Dinner the second night was nice. Breakfast on both days was excellent except for the coffee.
We chose Forest Cradle Cabins in Moina due to its location. About 20 minutes to Tasmazia and 30 minutes drive to Sheffield and Cradle Mountain Visitors Centre. Our Cabin was spacious well presented clean and tidy with bush views. A cafe has just open at the intersection before entry drive to cabins.
Our Tiny Escape was stunning! For such a small home, it was very well appointed. The views were amazing and we were even greeted by a native pademelon upon arrival. Proximity to Cradle Mountain was great and allowed us to maximise our time in the park. Highly recommend!
The grounds are beautiful with lots of birds. The bed was comfortable. The hot shower with plenty of pressure was appreciated.its also a short drive to the Cradle Mountain Visitor Center. This accommodation is in a quiet area and a new cafe/takeaway has opened nearby.
- Location in the middle of the jungle with a lot of privacy
- Pademelons feeding in the backyard of the hotel
- Nice walking trails (the one with the waterfalls is cool)
- Room is spacious and tucked into the jungle, the gas fire place and jacuzzi are nice too
Fabtastic staff went out their way to ensure a good stay. Good restaurant on site for cooked breakfasts and pub style dinners - book ahead given limited options in Moina. Foxtel in rooms was a bonus. Very cosy cabins. Easy 20min drive from Cradle Mountain
The locality is great - away from mainstream vacation venues. The view is awesome and it is quiet/peaceful. The cabin is a self-contained 5 star hotel room with modern amenities.
Everything! The house is amazing (photos don't do it justice), every little thing has been thought about. Lots of wildlife and very close to cradle mountain for lovely hikes.
The location was fantastic! I wouldn't change a thing :)
The kitchen was well stocked with all the essentials - kudos on the microwave! It was a life saver
The cabin was situated approx 30 mins from Cradle Mountain. Beds were comfortable, room was big. The tavern near there was good with a good atmosphere.
