"Excellent place to stay, very close to Cradle Mountain Visitors Center/Park entrance. Rooms were clean, interesting (mine had 2 levels...upstaris bed/bath, downstairs sitting room with excellent window viewing. Food was great. Breakfast was huge and amazing. Staff was very helpful, informed, and honest about their recommendations. there was FREE LAUNDRY...which, is particularly relevant on those rainy days. Maybe don't need a wash, but 30 mins in the dryer is a life saver! The store is full of tasteful gifts, and, if needed outerwear for those "unpredicted" days. Thank you to all! I'd definitely choose to stay here again. Now, if only they could have made the rain stop."

"Our cabin was mostly clean apart from a few dust webs that only showed up when the lights were on. All the important surfaces, (benchtop/shower/toilet) were spotless. Bed was comfortable and warm. Lovely lass in the reception/cafe/dining area of the lodge pretty much doing everything as it's 'off season' so very quiet. Had a lovely chat with the owner, Michael, before dinner re his history at the lodge and his signature branded rum, gin, wine etc. The lodge is very welcoming with a warming fireplace, antiques and leather chairs adding to the alpine ambience. Well worth a stay in you are in this area."
