CEDAR CREEK LODGES You’ve just been on a serene bushwalk, surrounded by ancient rainforest, soaking up the sounds and smell of nature. The clear waters of Cedar Creek are too inviting to ignore, so a quick dip or a relaxed sundowner (purchased from the Kiosk) is calling. Following a chillaxed few hours, you return to your ‘Courtyard Spa Room Luxe’ for a deep bath or outdoor jacuzzi, this is a prelude to a romantic dinner immersed in greenery. The Rainforest Restaurant features a menu that optimizes fresh produce from the local region, coupled with a playful drinks and dessert menu. Your romantic dinner for two is followed by a night-cap at the cocktail bar, and stroll of the art gallery. There is also the option of a game of pool before retiring back to your room for a movie and perhaps the next day, a leisurely breakfast followed by an inhouse spa treatment - or for those who want more outdoor play, a day of activities in Thunderbird Park. This delightful “couples” style experience is on offer at Cedar Creek Lodges with accommodation options such as the creek side ‘Woodland Tents’ (and yes, this is glamping with an outdoor spa bath and open roof shower), ‘Creek Lodges’ featuring king sized beds, sitting room, kitchenette and a log fire, or the newly renovated (and our favourite) hotel style ‘Courtyard Spa Room Luxe’ and the ‘Courtyard Spa Room’. 48
