Getaway

15 June 2019

This is our second trip to Crystal Creek and we absolutely loved it, the cabins are in great locations and everything you need is there. Loved the big spa bath that has an amazing view. If you are looking at a getaway with a loved one and being surrounded by a rainforest then this is the place to go. We have already booked our third trip.

Memories have been created here

26 April 2019

We stayed in Booyong. Such a cute and amazing cabin to stay in. The scenery was absolutely spectacular. Big news flash! Boyfriend proposed to me on one of the beautiful bridges. Memories have been created here now and will never be forgotten. Thanks for your beautiful environment and all the hard work you do. Lots of love and happiness.

A weekend of serenity!

15 April 2019

A beautiful weekend retreat in the rainforest where you can escape the hustle and bustle of life and just kick back listening to the sound of the creek. Beautifully prepared food brought to your cabin where you can enjoy by candle light and then kicking back in front of the log fire and enjoy the peace and quiet.

Relax, Revive, Retreat!

15 March 2019

This place is such a special piece of paradise! A magical experience from the moment you drive through the rainforest gates, you instantly start to relax and tune in to nature. Luxury has been taken to the next level here, while keeping in harmony with its surroundings. A tread lightly approach with eco-friendly and sustainable responsibility, this retreat is a destination in itself. You will not want to leave! I stayed in Lamington Lodge and it was divine. The views over the valley and the red cedar tree lit up at night is just perfect.

Heaven

15 March 2019

We spent 5 nights at his luxurious, idyllic resort celebrating our 15 Wedding Anniversary. We experienced the real tranquility of life from our city jobs, loving the solitude in the rainforest. When we arrived we were greeted by friendly staff and at our cabin we enjoyed a complimentary bottle of Moet champagne. Our anniversary dinner was perfect, 100 candles lit the room, the table setting was beautiful, together with chocolates and 12 red roses, made this so special and such an memorable occasion. All of our meals were delicious and appetizing, so much so, I’ve put on 3 kilos!! Everything about this resort is faultless. Mark and the CCRR team are to be commended for their excellence. If we could rate this higher we would.

You won’t beat this beautiful retreat

26 February 2019

Ian and I have just returned from a couple of nights away at Crystal Creek Retreat, which we won as “Promoter of the Year” for the Australasian Team Roping Assoc. in 2017/18. To say it is magnificent is an understatement. It is truly the nicest place on earth. A huge thank you to the ATRA for recognizing the hard work that all of the promoters put in to make the big team roping wheel work, and a special thank you to Crystal Creek Retreat for their part in the sponsorship of that special time for us. If you need some time out, you won’t beat this beautiful retreat.

Take me back!

15 February 2019

My husband and I visited here for the second time for our first wedding anniversary. We absolutely love everything about this place. The food is absolutely amazing and is generous enough to last you until your next meal. The views are spectacular and you really don’t want to leave! We did all of the hikes and really enjoyed quality time to ourselves. We will definitely be back for the third time.

Blissful and Peaceful

15 February 2019

Two words to describe this retreat. Blissful and absolute peace. The surroundings are so beautiful with the rainforest all around you. My husband and I had a lovely time just relaxing. Reading a book, swimming and barbecuing on our time. You lose track of time in this mystical place. The cabins are absolutely beautiful with 5 star luxury fittings. The staff are friendly and assisting and leave you to be. The rainforest walks are a great activity and whatever you do make sure you go and see the glow worms!! It is AMAZING! I would recommend this spot to all couples that want to get away from the rush of the world and reconnect with each other, yourself and nature.

A lovely getaway for our 5th year anniversary TA5

15 February 2019

My boyfriend and I (early 20s) stayed for two nights and loved it (he isn’t even an out-doors person). The staff on site were very polite and friendly in the way you could tell they cared about you enjoying yourself.

We stayed in the bungalow Quandong (one of the cheaper cabins), which we found to be very private and relaxing. We had no complaints of the cabin, the furniture was beautiful with most of it being carved wood. We did come across the odd spider and some ants in the cabin which is a given staying the the forest however, if would not be anything more than I would come across at home and they supply fly spray / Aeroguard.

The spa was very nice and the TV/DVD was all up to date and working as it should. When we arrived they told us about the games room which has about 1000 bluray/DVDs we could grab at our leisure to bring back to our room (games room was open 24-7 – unmonitored). Games room also had table tennis, board games, pool, computer, tea etc. This added a nice touch to our stay as we did watch a few movies at night and played table tennis when we went to grab movies.
I unfortunately had a migraine one morning of our stay and when my boyfriend went to ask whether they had any panadol they gave him a whole box free of charge which was very appreciated.

The meals were expensive but you do get your moneys worth (they do not let you go hungry). We ended up taking some of the food home with us as we couldn’t eat it all. I was a but unsure about the re-heating in the microwave situation but the food tasted good; it was as if you were eating it straight out of the oven/pan.
Given the limited amount of cabins in the retreat it was rare for us to see other people; we had the orchard and rainforest walk to ourselves. We did not see any of the staff other than when we approached the reception area so they do respect your privacy.

If you are looking for an escape from the city this is a perfect spot to go being surrounded by mountains and staying in a glass cabin with a rainforest view. The area feels safe and relaxing. I would recommend this place for a 2-3 night stay; enough to explore the rainforest, have a picnic, unwind and see the glow worms.

Overall the retreat exceeded expectations.

It is expensive to stay here but for special occasions I do think it is worth the stay – I hope to return in future.

They made my wedding week perfect!!

15 January 2019

I was at the Retreat for a week for my wedding from Jan. 5–12, 2019. I simply can’t say enough wonderful things about Crystal Creek! I am a very picky person when it comes to places to stay since I travel frequently, and this is one of my favourites. 1) the scenery is magnificent, 2) the bungalows are gorgeous, glass on all sides, spectacular views, extremely romantic, modern and clean, 3) it is all very private and secluded, 4) there are wonderful trails to hike, 5) all the food we ordered was excellent, and 6) the staff couldn’t have been nicer or more accommodating! We’ve already decided that we will go back on our five year anniversary!!!

So peaceful

6 January 2019

Genuinely one of the most spectacular places we’ve ever stayed. We had the Kamala bungalow and the views from the balcony were simply stunning. The rainforest walks are brilliant and the swimming holes are a delight. Best of all, it’s so peaceful and you feel like you’re completely isolated from the world (in a good way).

The team at CCRR are amazing. The bungalow itself was brilliant – the views from the bath are spectacular!

Relaxing, romantic and serene

15 December 2018

We stayed at Crystal Creek for 3 nights on our honeymoon in the [Luxury] Mountain View Lodge. We loved this place so much, it was the most perfect relaxation break. The lodge has floor to ceiling windows facing the mountains, creating the most beautiful setting. It’s perfect for a romantic break, with a fireplace and hot jacuzzi and an outdoor plunge pool. The staff were very friendly and helpful, even picking us up from our car, as it rained heavily, so our sedan was unable to cross the river roads. We did a rainforest walk on one of the days, which allowed us to see the beautiful nature walks. We will definitely return to this place, it is the ultimate relaxation destination, in the most beautiful rainforest I’ve seen.

Just a beautiful experience

8 December 2018

What a magical experience! We stayed in the Luxury Rainforest Retreat Cedar Lodge and it certainly lived up to expectations. The staff were amazing, nothing was too much effort and the facilities are second to none. We had a private plunge pool which was slightly heated, perfect for this time of year. I can’t recommend Crystal Creek more highly, just a beautiful experience and we can’t wait to go back!
