Nice and cozy place to stay.
I could feel great nature around and the shack was good.
Not a long distance to Bangalow town to buy anything I need.
The host was friendly and he guided us to the shack.
A must place to visit.

Barachi by the Creek was the most perfect place to get away and unwind after a busy Term 1. Peter and Tania have created an inviting space filled with all the rustic charm of simpler times. It really is a magical glamping experience:, one we were very pleased to swap our camper trailer for, for a few days. We highly recommend Barachi for the perfect peaceful getaway.

Awesome stay with our little family at the shack - very comfortable inside and the kids loved the hammock and creek. Big bbq and everything else you'd need. Thanks Tania and Peter!

Beautiful little getaway in a cute rustic cabin near the creek. We were greeted by roaming friendly cows as we arrived. The cabin is set quite far down the property which makes the property feel very secluded. Peter & Tania have everything you need for your stay to give you a bit of a “glamping” experience. Only thing would be is the cabin can get a bit stuffy but if there is a nice breeze then you’ll be fine, there is also a rechargeable fan inside the cabin, we were able to go for a dip in the creek to cool down too. Highly recommended!!

Magical little spot, nothing to do here but simply relax and enjoy the bush. I highly recommend this place for a weekend getaway. The host was lovely too :)

My dear friend was visiting and wanted to go camping. However, we've had a particularly wet year in the Northern Rivers and this weekend was going to be no exception. But we found something so much better than we could have imagined.
It had rained so much that Peter had to drive us down in his all terrain vehicle.
We were greeted at the bottom of the hill by the cows, the sound of trickling water in the creek, and the only noise for miles was the sound of two excited, giggling females.
The shack is great! It has everything you need when you go completely off grid. The beds are comfortable, and let's face it, anything is better than a blow up. There is nothing like going to sleep to the sound of rain on a tin roof.
Even in the mud we managed to sit out by the fire, went for a swim in the creek, we did try to fish but I'm pretty sure they heard us coming.
There is a little phone reception, just don't expect to be streaming anything. We had Telstra, Optus and TPG and you just have to find the right spot.
They are not kidding when they say you need to be an experienced 4x4 driver. Being two adventurous country girls, we initially thought we could probably trek down when was closed to 4x4; yeah, nah! Don't even think about it. Besides, the buggy is more fun! Don't be put off by this though.
Tania and Peter have created a great little get away and we will definitely be coming back!

This was our 2nd stay and it was just as good as the first! The ability to feel as though you are completely “camping “ without having to pack the tent is awesome, once again Tania and Peter went above and beyond to make our stay stress-free!
We will return!!!

Really helpful messages and timely responses. Peter was incredible in helping me get to the site. So friendly, welcoming and helpful.
The shack and the location was perfect. So peaceful listening to the water flow through the creek and the shack has everything you need. Loved the hammock and the peacefulness of it all. Was great to be greeted in the morning by the cows.
Would love to come back again and stay longer. Couldn't recommend this place enough.
Thank you for making the weekend everything I needed.

It was a beautiful and very relaxing weekend. Just us , the creek, the fire pit and the shack. Peter was very welcoming and showed us the way down to the shack, without him you wouldn’t find it . Perfect for a romantic weekend getaway - we didn’t want to leave.

Absolutely beautiful and relaxing! When we first pulled up out the front I was a little worried that it would be too suburbia but I could not have been more wrong! We were met by Peter and taken down to a very peaceful private spot by the creek. The rustic shack had all the essentials and a lot of charm just perfect to get away from the hustle and bustle. My dog could be off leash and had an absolute ball in the creek! The cows added to the serenity as they roamed around. We absolutely loved our stay and will definitely return!

We loved staying in the cabin alongside the creek. Tania and Peter were friendly and helpful on checkin. We had a good time around the campfire and listening to the running creek.

It was a perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of our busy lives with limited connectivity. My partner and I had picnics by the creek, bonfires, lots of bbq and time to read and chat with no distractions. We absolutely loved it! The curious cows found our puppy very intriguing. The place is well set up, has everything you need, but of course for a rustic experience.

I highly recommend this location as place to stay for an over night or even a couple of nights rest up.. Located well away from any habitation, the Shack has its own creek and small paddock to itself. A lovely quiet location with basic facilities that suit its rustic nature are more than adequate. This makes for a very simple comfortable stay. The Shack is a large one room hut made of corrugated iron and local time. This gives a old world charm about it. A 4x4 is highly recommended as some low clearance AWD SUVs will likely struggle on a couple of the track sections getting in/ out. Heavy wet weather may prove a challenge if your tyre tread is road pattern only. Mobile phone coverage is intermittent. Overall a great place to visit with Peter being friendly and very helpful. We had a great time, Thanks

Loved our overnight experience at The Shack, despite some rain. The track down was adventurous with Peter escorting us in his trusty quad bike, & the cows curiously greeting us. The gorgeous cattle left their mark and we used our navigational skills amongst the grasslands and short trek to the loo. The setting is serene, quiet and rustic, with that Man from Snowy River vibe - just perfect actually. The rustic cabin has all the basics you’d need. I tried out the hammock while relaxing with a good book. We enjoyed the camp fire in the fire pit, along with our red wine, while the whip birds sang in the tree above us, before the rain drops interrupted our interlude in the late afternoon. Not to let this dampen our trip, we ventured indoors to stay warm & dry while we finished our red. We woke the next morning to the running nearby creek and the morning bird calls. Our BBQ breakfast was a treat as we continued with the serenity of such a beautiful spot. The continual drizzle prompted us to pack up a bit earlier & with a visit from Peter, we were ensured we could exit more safely. Thank goodness our sturdy 4WD kicked in for our wet, slippery trek back up the mountain. Afterwards, we enjoyed our coffee at Annie’s just up the road.
We’d love to go back to this gorgeous hideaway. Peter is an excellent, super friendly, responsive & caring host.

Beautiful, private getaway. An awesome upgrade for people who love camping and want a little extra luxury. With big shady trees, picturesque farmland and a running creek you won't want to leave! Hosts are so welcoming and the communication was amazing, definitely heed their wisdom regarding the 4x4 track to get in! We will definitely be returning soon for a longer stay :)

The cabin was amazing. It really is camping but without the tent. The cabin is destled down the back of the property next to the creek with the cows it was a picturesque location. The track wasnt too bad but you do need a 4x4 to get there. The hosts are lovely and we will absolutely be coming back if we get the chance.

Communication prior to the trip was spot on and Peter was there to greet us, take us to theThe Shack and get us settled.
And The Shack was everything we expected, wanted and more. Such an awesome accomodation. So glad we booked.
Thank you Peter for sharing your awesome place and for treating us so well.
We’ll be back

This was a magical spot to totally switch off and relax in. The view was incredible and the cabin was cozy and beautiful and had everything you need to cook, protect yourself from mozzies, shower and sleep. The bed was very comfortable, so was the hammock and the lounge on the balcony. Laying in the creek was the perfect way to cool down and relax. Peter was nothing but accommodating and helpful bringing our stuff down to the cabin and picking us back up in the morning and showing us everything we needed. It was rustic at its absolute best. We will be back. Thankyou Peter and Tanya.

Loved my stay 🙂 beautiful secluded cabin with a creek a few steps away which was great for a dip in the hot weather.
Please listen to Tania and Peter when they tell you you need a robust 4wd as the track is very muddy and you will get bogged if you don’t have the appropriate gear.
The hosts were super accommodating and lovely. 100% recommend

We absolutely loved our time at the shack! Communication with the hosts was smooth and Peter was very helpful! He helped carry our stuff down to the shack upon check in and back up to our cars on the way back, which we were very grateful for. We spent the evening watching the sunset over the hills and had dinner in the moonlight overlooking the stars. The cows came over in the morning to greet us which was very lovely.
It was a beautiful rustic nature getaway that we all needed and the shack had everything we needed plus more.
Would definitely recommend!

Our time in this rustic shack was amazing!
Being surrounded by nature and having cows at the door step was wonderful.
So nice to escape as someone from the Byron shire and surrounding area.
Peter was a great help for bringing down our days supplies and showing us our way when we were exploring around the dam.
Simple way to enjoy an off grid experience.
Our pup got to watch the scenery change as we had a little drizzle which was welcomed.
Such a great time all in all.

A 20 minute hike down and 30 minutes on foot - all in the comfort of Crocs :) - was a pleasant way to get immersed in nature.
For someone who would go days without a shower and dig a hole for a toilet, the facilities are plenty. This includes a thunderbox, BBQ, gas cook top and solar shower to name a few. It's not what a city lover would call glamping, however it does truely exceed a "The Shack".
Be wary for snakes. It is after all, the country.
Host Peter and Tania were are quick to respond, helpful and lovely.
I used Barachi as a base and would venue out from early morning. Exploring adorable towns and eating tasty local food. Coming back to base early afternoon to settling in for a peaceful night.
