We stayed in a cabin which had heated bathroom floors. The cabin was quite nice and modern. It is only a few minutes drive to restaurants in the area and across the road from where you catch the shuttle into the park.

Beautiful brand new chalet eco-cottages, which were luxuriously appointed very unexpectedly. Lovely fire next to our bed, full privacy, warm toasty floors to walk on, luxurious deep bath with beautiful herbs, soft, fluffy towels. Loved every minute of our stay.

Our cabin was small, however had everything you needed for a comfortable stay! the decor is quite dated, but very comfortable. There was extremely adequate heating, including electric blankets and headlamps in the bathroom. It is everything you need, to make a good base for exploring the area. I would stay there again.

Very convenient to Cradle Mountain visitor centre. Although the Discovery Park could feel like a maze, this made for a feeling of privacy and security, being amongst the scented gums. We had a standard cabin, great bathroom/shower, heating and utilities.

For someone who still wants a bit of comfort while enjoying the call of nature, the Cradle Mountain Discovery Park cabins are great. The kitchen is well provided for, the shower is hot, & the couch is great to kick back in, put your feet up, & relax after a long day. There’s lots to do in the immediate area, including a climb up Black Bluffs lookout for a spectacular view of the mountain, and a short(ish) drive to fascinating towns like Waratah. Don’t miss the Devils at Cradle either!

Unfortunately there was mould in the base of the shower and the overall condition of the cabin seemed dated…. The camp kitchen facilities were excellent and overall a pleasant 2 day stay.
