Abundant bird life on 40 acres of native gardens, natural bush land and the pre historic vibes of Yak Yak creek. The creek features mesmerising rock formations, waterfalls in season and eerie tranquility. Wake up to the melodic sounds of nature streaming through your bedroom, sipping on a morning brew with northern views to the Border Ranges National Park. Watch the mist rise through the forested valley as the day warms. Do what you love whether it’s bush walking, reading, painting, photography, board games/cards, sipping wine or catching extra Zzzz’s. Enjoy a hot spa in winter and the cool waters of Yak Yak creek in summer. Day or night the land takes you on a soothing journey…. All a stones throw from Lismore for restaurants, shops and the northern rivers best markets.The cabin is a beautiful open space, filled with birdsong, light, colour and art. It’s privately located 40m beside the main house surrounded by garden and open Eucalypt forest. The valley views are spectacular, which can be enjoyed from the hot spa. It is a converted bay of our motorcycle garage/shed. It has close views to the bush frequent with wallaby’s and a great variety of birds, plus distant views to the Border Ranges It includes a private hot spa with robes, shower, toilet, smart TV, fridge, blue tooth speaker, air conditioning, wifi, electric cooking appliances and a patio with table, chairs, lounges and electric BBQ/grill. Also a selection of books, games and cards. You’ll sleep well on the high quality mattress, with beautiful high TC Egyptian cotton sheets and duck down quilt. The nights are inky dark and quiet (apart from our resident echidna who often rummages through the garden). There is a fire pit at the back of the shed set and supplied with timber; just not usable in the event of a total fire ban. The creek is accessible via a marked bush track, requiring good enclosed shoes and a little fitness. We’re happy to provide guests with a guided walk. The bird life is so abundant that you won’t need an alarm in the mornings. The chorus is glorious…. As well as the bright stars at night. There is an undercover car park next to the cabin. Its perfect for couples, keen birders, photographers and motorcyclists after a day’s ride through the beautiful back roads of the Northern Rivers.

Incredible place to stay for the weekend. Beautiful view and perfect for a nature surrounded getaway. Had a lovely walk down to the creek and loved saying hi to the cows. Will be definitely returning.

A 10/10 stay!
Private Valley Edge Cabin & Spa
A 10/10 stay! We loved staying at Aliki’s cabin, it was quiet and peaceful with a comfortable bed, good shower, fantastic spa and well looked after and clean throughout. Aliki was the perfect host, helpful and let you relax and enjoy your stay. Heaps of restaurants in Lismore and a lovely area all together. Definitely recommend the walk from the garden to the creek, it takes approximately 20 mins to get down. We will 100% stay again! Thanks Aliki!

Lovely experience
Private Valley Edge Cabin & Spa
We loved our stay! We went on the trail walk down to the creek/waterfall and it was beautiful, they had arrows along the way you could follow. Even saw some cows come up to the property and sat with them to watch the incredible view! The fire was also all set up to go. Would definitely recommend leaving the spa until nighttime and turning off all of the lights so you can see the amazing stars in full glory. 10/10!

Aliki and Pat are great hosts and their place is definitely the jewel of Caniaba. Having the place to ourselves, with only wallabies, cows and birds for company whilst relaxing in the spa under a blanket of stars was blissful. I would definitely stay there again. Would recommend you take your own BBQ as none at the property.

A cabin that's worth every cent
Private Valley Edge Cabin & Spa
This was the most beautiful romantic stay, Aliki was super welcoming and friendly. The view was incredible, the spa was amazing, the walking trail on the property was magical. We even walked with cows down by the creek. Perfect romantic destination!

Second time of pure bliss
Private Valley Edge Cabin & Spa
This is my second time staying here, and we absolutely love it. Even though the main house is close, you would never know anyone lived there. Aliki and her partner are very respectful. It’s quite for excellent sleeps, but still a close drive to Lismore if you need shopping supplies or if you’re into supporting local businesses like we are go have some food out. We’ll be back again.

Very relaxing stay, Aliki and Pat are great hosts. Room was spotlessly clean with everything you could possibly need for a short or longer stay. Tranquil property with great views, plenty of wildlife to look at including some very friendly cows. Spa worked great and a very relaxing way to spend a weekend. Do yourself a favour and book the Jewel of Caniaba.

Beautiful & Peaceful Retreat
Private Valley Edge Cabin & Spa
Beautiful part of the world! Aliki our host was kind, hospitable and so so friendly! Aliki and Pat already had the fire pit set up on arrival and the hot tub was on and ready to enjoy! The cabin is impeccable, cozy and modern it had everything we needed plus more! The hot tub overlooked spectacular views of the valley. Yak Yak creek is an easy 15 minute walk from the cabin through beautiful bush and creek beds. It is so peaceful! I would highly recommend Aliki’s to all future Hipcampers. We will be back!

Perfect place to reset
Private Valley Edge Cabin & Spa
We loved our stay at Aliki’s, out amongst nature with a view and everything you need. We enjoyed a drink at the fire pit, it was ready to light on arrival. The spa was heated for us, a great spot for star gazing. Comfy bed, lovely artwork, clean space and amazing bird life in the morning, highly recommended! Thanks Aliki and Pat.

Perfection…
Private Valley Edge Cabin & Spa
This hipcamp is by far the best little piece of paradise we have stayed in for a while, better then a lot of airbnbs I have stayed in. It’s my 38th birthday & Aliki made me the perfect gators, which I wore the next day hiking thank you so much. The place was peaceful, the bed was comfy, & we used the spa & it just set us into relaxation mode. Thank you for opening your space, we will be back.

Relaxing getaway
Private Valley Edge Cabin & Spa
Fantastic view and an exceptionally clean cabin. Great communication from Aliki and we were made to feel very welcome. The firepit being ready to light was a really nice touch. Directions were good and it was easy to find. Birdlife was great. Very peaceful and relaxing.
