Cockatoo Cottage at Tamborine Creek Stay is just minutes from Gold Coast theme parks and the World Heritage Listed beauty of Mount Tamborine. Unwind by the fireplace, or gather around the fire pit overlooking the creek and enjoy the tropical forest surroundings. Rainforest bush walks, wine tastings, dining and local shops are a short distance away. Famous Gold Coast beaches beckon for those sunny Queensland days. Our home is central to all things memorable and fun! Enquire about long term stays.
This recently renovated home is modern and very comfortable for your stay. Rustic wooden features and indoor fireplace create a cosy, warm atmosphere.
Step outside to a large patio for those warm alfresco BBQ nights, or head across the creek bridge to the fire pit area. We have spotted platypus, ducks and turtles in Wongawallan Creek which runs along the back of the property.
The open-plan design seamlessly connects the spacious living, dining, and kitchen areas, providing a perfect flow to the green outdoor spaces. Our kitchen is the heart of the home, and fully equipped with everything you need to cook up a storm!
Unwind in comfort in the master bedroom with ensuite and built-in robes overlooking the trees and Wongawallan valley bushland. An additional Queen bedroom includes full wardrobes, and the two single beds in the third bedroom can comfortably accommodate an extra trundle bed upon request.
All beds are made with quality linen and fresh quality towels are provided. Extra towels are provided for beach days (please use instead of our white towels).
Free unlimited wi-fi and smart tv for streaming via your accounts.

CREEK
We are currently improving our property to include a future outdoor bath platform overlooking the creek, and regenerating the creek access. Access to the lower creek area is possible via the back right of the backyard and you are welcome to swim in the cool water (weather and conditions permitting). We ask you to take care and watch young ones at all times. The creek area is a stunning area with a wonderful bounty of native wildlife including turtles and platypus.
