This is your perfect retreat.
The rainforest Treehouse is situated in a rainforest pocket of the Mount Warning Caldera, completely surrounded by lush and vibrant nature and sheltered from the outside world, while being just 2 minutes away from us and the comfy road that will take you to an amazing swimming hole, cafés and the nearby town.
Once you enter the Treehouse private drive you will feel yourself being transported into a magical world of gently flowing water, natural light, tall trees, chirping birds, rustling leaves, crickets, and frogs.
You will notice the energy shift into the safe embrace of our land, protected by Springbrook Mountain.
The location of the Treehouse was chosen by our then young children. We all fell in love with the magnificent camphor laurel tree growing at the edge of the seasonal creek.
We all found ourselves drawn to that place, so with the help of our friends and our children we began the project of manifesting a dream into a reality - the dream of living in the tree canopy.
As we worked on the Treehouse, the design was constantly changing. The whole family, especially our youngest son, contributed to the manifestation of the dream. During that time we overcame many obstacles and found solutions to build in the tree. It was an adventure, a lot of fun and we learnt a lot.
It became a dwelling for our kids for a period of time, until they grew up and left to conquer the big wide world.
Now it is here for you to enjoy, to reconnect with your dreams, to dive deep into your childhood playful memories where the world of fantasy and reality merge together.
Here you can just be yourself, embraced by nature and view at the world from your Treehouse verandah.

This is your perfect retreat.
The rainforest Treehouse is situated in a rainforest pocket of the Mount Warning Caldera, completely surrounded by lush and vibrant nature and sheltered from the outside world, while being just 2 minutes away from us and the comfy road that will take you to an amazing swimming hole, cafés and the nearby town.
Once you enter the Treehouse private drive you will feel yourself being transported into a magical world of gently flowing water, natural light, tall trees, chirping birds, rustling leaves, crickets, and frogs.
You will notice the energy shift into the safe embrace of our land, protected by Springbrook Mountain.
The location of the Treehouse was chosen by our then young children. We all fell in love with the magnificent camphor laurel tree growing at the edge of the seasonal creek.
We all found ourselves drawn to that place, so with the help of our friends and our children we began the project of manifesting a dream into a reality - the dream of living in the tree canopy.
As we worked on the Treehouse, the design was constantly changing. The whole family, especially our youngest son, contributed to the manifestation of the dream. During that time we overcame many obstacles and found solutions to build in the tree. It was an adventure, a lot of fun and we learnt a lot.
It became a dwelling for our kids for a period of time, until they grew up and left to conquer the big wide world.
Now it is here for you to enjoy, to reconnect with your dreams, to dive deep into your childhood playful memories where the world of fantasy and reality merge together.
Here you can just be yourself, embraced by nature and view at the world from your Treehouse verandah.

4 nights at Dude Ranch Cottage
Great place! So quiet and peaceful. The house was very clean and well-equipped. Amenities and beaches are really close. 25 minutes to Bribie Island and other centres. Highly recommended. Would definitely stay here again.

We loved camping at Undullah Farm our pitch was stunning with incredible views to wake up too. Very quiet with lots of space between pitches. There are showers and toilets which were super clean and easily accessible. Can’t wait to come and stay again. Thank you so much for having us!

2 nights at Undullah-Moore farm
Something for everyone. Couples, singles, families… this is the perfect spot.
I am so impressed & will be back. Spacious, private, well maintained.
Enjoy tranquil private time at an abundance of secluded green, grassy sites or head up to the communal BYO bar, fire & mini swimming pool for a genuine yarn, with the most welcoming hosts, long time, local family property owners.
No phone coverage except in the bar area, where wi-fi is available.
We ventured in for a swim even though the creek wasn’t flowing, sandy bottom, no obvious creatures. Haha
Hot showers, plumbed toilets & port-a-loo’s available. Very clean. Depending where you set up, it could be a short drive.
Fun fact, Creek side cater for extra large groups in private areas. The land is in abundance. Amazing!
In my experience, Hip camp can be hit & miss. Creek Side exceeded expectations. Loved the fairy lights throughout the property. An unexpected surprise under the countless stars.

This is the third time this year we camped at Kerry's property. Site 5 is our favourite, with its private swimming hole and fenced area to keep the inquisitive cows away. The whole place is very secluded with plenty of shade. This is the best private camping site very close to Brisbane. We will be back for sure.

Lisa gave good directions to the property so getting there was easy.
We chose Site 21 for privacy at the back of the property with bush views - no water view. A quick walk to the water, plenty of clean portaloos. Slightly sloped but enough flat space for gazebo & tent. A couple of small trees for shade which was good. Plenty of sun for our solar.
Showers are great, remember $2 coins.
Firepits on all sites.
Daily firewood collection is a great system. A big wheelbarrow for $50 on our first day & had wood leftover after 3 nights - good wood!
Lovely to get a visit from a herd of cows & calves, just strolled around our site & we fed the chickens :)
The neighbour’s tractor was noisy for a long time which spoilt the peace, but farm work has to be done!
The couple next to us played loud music but I asked them to turn it down & they did. Thankfully Lisa has strict rules about turning music off by 8pm.
The sites are close together so if someone books next to you, you can see & hear them. We heard them arguing the next morning then they left.
You fill water containers for washing with a hose by the water, so handy.
We have a kayak & trolley, it was easy to walk it down to the water, so lovely out on the huge lake.
One big family decided to gather by the jetty & play loud music while they swam - the only entry point for the kayak so it wasn’t as tranquil that afternoon.
Overall a good camping spot with handy conveniences & beautifully maintained lush grass.

Weekend Trip to Crystal Creek Rainforest Treehouse
A beautiful glamping experience! Thank you Paul & Aneta. We loved all the details, the thoughtfulness and care for a magical place to heal, connect and create memories. The composting toilet is the cleanest and well working system I’ve encountered 🙌. The bath, bliss! The bed is firm but super comfortable, the flutterbies and birds and flowers and all, thank you 🙏🏻

Brian, Tania and this beautiful property are a must visit. The Love and energy poured into created this space (well multiple spaces and counting) for people wanting to enjoy the peace is something money can’t buy. There are multiple private camp sites that cater to tents, RVs and also a beautiful home with more in the works. The shower and toilet facilities are modern with a beautiful rustic finish to match its surroundings, there is a playground for kids (not that’s they’ll need it when they can say hey to the cows, explore the creek or a little dip in the converted water tank plunge pool), the kitchen, fire pit and lounge area was my favourite part with everything you could possible need (just BYO food and drinks), multiple seating areas so it’s never cramped but also such a lovely place to meet other like minded people out to enjoy this picturesque space. Not to mention how welcoming, kind and helpful Brian was. Will definitely be back again :)
