Property Description
Moo Creek is a fully equipped holiday home in the heart of the Daintree Rainforest. It is within walking distance to Cow Bay Beach and only a short drive to restaurants, boardwalks and other sights of the Daintree. With one king bed, double futon and single bed, Moo Creek is suitable both for couples and families seeking to get away from it all and relax. There is ceiling fans through out house and plenty of air flow from outside. With a large open living area and covered decking overlooking a private creek and surrounded by rainforest it is a truly tranquil space.
The space
Moo Creek is entirely reliant on solar power and rainwater so we ask that guests are mindful of power and water usage during their stay. We also have a generator as a back up for power. While it doesn't need to be used very often you should note that as the property is in a rainforest we do experience periods of cloud and rain and therefore at times this may necessitate the running of the generator for power. There is no mobile reception or wifi available on the property which adds to the feeling of being able to totally switch off from it all. There is mobile reception available just a few minutes drive up the road however if needed. We provide books, movies and games for guests as well as all products including shampoo etc. We would also recommend that guests shop for groceries prior to heading into the Daintree (there is a Woolworths in Mossman) as there are very limited options for groceries once you have crossed over the river. We provide both a plunger and a stove top espresso maker at the house, however guests need to provide their own ground coffee for these.
Guest access
Guests have the entire property to themselves for the duration of their stay. This includes the private swimming holes in the creek running through dense rainforest. Given sufficient time and an Australian address we are happy to post ferry passes to you to save you the cost of the ferry. Otherwise we provide a ferry pass for your return journey (on the Daintree River Ferry crossing) so only a one way pass needs to be purchased to access the property. Additional passes can also be arranged for guests staying longer than 3 nights.
Other things to note
Our creek on the property has two small swimming holes which are accessed from the decking area. The creek is crocodile free and therefore safe to cool off in the warmer months.About pets:Pets allowed.We don't have any fences on the property.About checkOut:Check out before 10:00 AM.About children:Children allowed: ages 0-17.Note - no fencing between house and creek..About checkIn:Check in after 2:00 PM.About smoking:Smoking is not permitted.About events:No events allowed.

I loved everything about my stay here. The property is so quirky that it instantly feels like home. We were so blessed to see so much wildlife right at the door step, we even had critters trying to join us when we had a fire to cook. My friends that I travelled with became a little overwhelmed when the water ran out due to the water pump playing up and that drained the solar power but understood that's part of living in a rainforest and absolutely no fault to owners. The caretaker had the water issue resolved the same day. We still always had enough power to what we needed. The caretaker was always around if we needed anything, we don't have words to say just how amazing she is.We all would highly recommend this property for an amazing and authentic experience of what living in the Daintree is like.

The house is within national park, there are animals that visit and we saw fireflies and heard animals in the bush. It was lovely to make our own dinner and experience feeling like were in nature by eating our dinner/breakfast out on the patio. Close to cow bay, where we took a quick dip (mind the possible crocodiles!), and lazed on the beach. The house does not have aircon which may be a limiting factor for some people. It was nice and sunny whilst there so being on solar power only wasn't a problem. Our hosts also contacted us early and sent a ferry pass so that we didn't have to pay extra for that, which was absolutely awesome, and made it nice and easy for us. Thank you for the stay.

Moo Creek
Wonderful secluded cabin in the middle of the rain forest. Walk down to the creek and you're in nature and there is wildlife everywhere. We absolutely loved our stay at Moo Creek. Highly recommended.
