Great location, hospitality and well-informed staff. Clear instructions and everything is easy peasy. Everything it said it would be~! Go forth with faith!

The bed was very comfortable only problem was getting to it.
The bed was very comfortable only problem was getting to it. We are both a bit old to climb the ladder up to the bed. If we where younger
It would not have been a problem. Loved where it was and thought it was brilliant what had been done in such a small place. Would recommend if climbing a steep few stairs is easy for you. It was spotless and had everything we needed.

Beautiful setting and the room was lovely.
Beautiful setting and the room was lovely.
We had Pademelon roaming right under our cabin and our resident Kookaburra in the tree.
Very remote but we knew that which made for the great experience of being in the wilderness.
Close proximity to get to the National Park without the huge expense of other accommodation options. It is remote so eating options weren't there but we were informed of this and took our own supplies picked up along the way.
No wifi but again no issue as we knew this.
Would definitely recommend and stay again.

We didn't see much of Moina, to be honest, as we spent all our time at the National Park walking. It was a good area, though, as it was as close as we could find to Cradle Mountain accommodation and it was a very decent space.
We loved the personal car parking space right beside our cabin and the deck with its small table and two chairs. The garden wasn't actually forest immediately in front of the cabin but there were many gums not far distant and it was green and quiet around the cottage. We did see a padelemon after dusk.
The room was well equipped (better instructions re microwave and heater would be helpful, though) and the shower was good. Nice crockery but larger mugs would surely be appreciated. Not many accommodations seem to offer good mug sizes anymore.
Overall we found it comfortable and very pleasant and we'd stay again if ever we are back in that area.

Cradle Forest Inn, what an magical place to stay.
Cradle Forest Inn, what an magical place to stay.
From the driveway to the door we knew we were about experience something special. Say goodbye to NO internet and hello to resetting the clock.
A touch of old world charm meets rustic cabin lends itself to a romantic, cosy place to snuggle with your lover whilst sipping on a hot cup of soup to warm you from the brisk winter's temperature.
Sit back and watch a movie on SBS or marvel at the Pademelon, Wallabies and Currawongs that give into there curiosities of the humans behind the glass door as they venture onto the timber deck's.
So bring your playful and positive attitude, be young and in love again as you snuggle in bed, as you talk about the wonderful life you've shared.
Eat, sleep repeat.
Thank you for the privilege of staying in Dragonfly.

Short distance drive to Cradle Mountain.
Short distance drive to Cradle Mountain. Not much to do around, but I guess that's the good thing about this location: it forces you to rest your mind and enjoy nature. If driving before sunrise or after sunset, be really careful and slow, there are so many animals crossing the road.

Close enough to Cradle Mountain to make it a realistic choice for those that want to avoid the crowds.
Stock up on food/supplies in Sheffield (or arrive fully equipped) because the good/bad news is there are no facilities at Moina.
A little over 20 minutes to the Cradle Mountain Visitors' Centre in the daytime, but the nighttime drive from the Cradle Mountain Hotel restaurant to Moina took about 30 minutes ... giving us time to count 5 wombats, 1 devil, 1 brushtail, and 73 pademelons & Bennett's wallabies.
An incredible location and stay! A beautiful location and beautiful tiny location to stay in. We had booked for one night but had wished we stayed for 2. The quiet nature and wildlife with incredible views really makes for a unique and enjoyable stay compared to hotels. We have already shared this with our friends and family as a must stay location! A full size bathroom and full equipped kitchen with everything you need to have a romantic dinner in.
Cradle Mountain and resort restaurants are only a 15 minute drive away.
Wombat Cabin is rustic, remote, quiet, but with electricity and hot water! Extra breakfast groceries provided gave us more eating flexibility - much appreciated. Great wood stove heats up the whole place.
On our Tassie trip, the big hotels we stayed at were fine, but Wombat Cabin was the most memorable, positive experience.
Location was as expected. Our plane was delayed by two hours. We were contacted by the hotel informing us last dinner booking was at 7.30 our ETA was 8.15. We asked for some pasta and salad with a bottle of wine which was accommodated happily though we had to eat it in our unit.
Dinner the second night was nice. Breakfast on both days was excellent except for the coffee.
This is a wonderful hotel. The room was warm and inviting, especially on a cold day. The fireplace added comfort and warmth. Meals were excellent; the atmosphere in the restaurant was wonderful and there was a good range of meals available. Staff were very helpful and the activities provided added to the stay.
The shack met all our expectations. It was well-stocked, cosy, private, and most importantly it was NOT a resort-type experience. We had to light the wood burner and wash a few dishes, but so what? We were after a more authentic TAS wilderness experience - and we got it!
Our Tiny Escape was stunning! For such a small home, it was very well appointed. The views were amazing and we were even greeted by a native pademelon upon arrival. Proximity to Cradle Mountain was great and allowed us to maximise our time in the park. Highly recommend!
Fabtastic staff went out their way to ensure a good stay. Good restaurant on site for cooked breakfasts and pub style dinners - book ahead given limited options in Moina. Foxtel in rooms was a bonus. Very cosy cabins. Easy 20min drive from Cradle Mountain
It is a beautiful chalet in a very quiet neighbourhood. Beautiful pinewood walls inside, very tastefully decorated, beautiful hot shower. It is about 25 minutes away from Cradle Mountain, but with our own transport it was no problem at all.
Our Cabin was very well appointed with all we needed as well as some extra homely touches. Very comfortable bed and lovely environs.
A great location for our time at Cradle Mountain National Park.
this hotel is a bit isolated than I thought, kind of hidding in the middle of a mountain, the expereince is so exceptional, and the hotel staff is very nice and kind, the food there is fantastic!
The locality is great - away from mainstream vacation venues. The view is awesome and it is quiet/peaceful. The cabin is a self-contained 5 star hotel room with modern amenities.
Everything! The house is amazing (photos don't do it justice), every little thing has been thought about. Lots of wildlife and very close to cradle mountain for lovely hikes.
The cabin was situated approx 30 mins from Cradle Mountain. Beds were comfortable, room was big. The tavern near there was good with a good atmosphere.
