“Thanks for the experience of living in the trees. Our son adored the birds & Koalas and we adored the house, its décor and the relaxed feeling that comes with it. Cheers very much”. M and J.

“What superb accommodation – a place to refresh those batteries. To be awoken by the numerous birds, and hear the waves trundling into shore, surely there can be no better ‘utopia’ than this? The Treetops view to the ocean is sublime and getting to feed the birds by hand (literally) was an experience not to be missed. Coming from the Kimberley’s in WA it was such a novelty preparing the wood fire and even more of a challenge to keep it going (managed by the 2nd night). The ambience is one of peaceful and calming thoughts, even our dog was calm.” (Donnelle and Ian and our dog, Jess)

“I made the first of many visits to Wye River when I was six weeks old and now my husband has brought me back for my 60th birthday so that I may retrace my childhood steps. I am delighted to say that in the intervening decades nothing has spoiled the special place in my heart. It remains a paradise. Thank you to all the ‘locals’, furred and feathered who gave us such a warm welcome. Let’s hope we pass this way again.” (Lynne and Rob Canberra).

“Best view ever of ‘Billy’ the resident Koala. He was sitting at waist height on the tree trunk staring up into my face from about a metre away just next to the carport. “Oh, who are you?” he seemed to be saying and then snuggled a little more into the tree trunk. Meanwhile Tashi and Tenzing (Aussie terriers) were dancing on back legs behind the front door, “we want to say hello to Billy too.” (R and S)

“What a lovely home away from home. We made friends with the King Parrots and many Crimson Rosellas and the Sulphur Crested Cockatoos. I saw two Koalas on the walk to the Wye River beach and we saw 7 more on Grey River Road. One Kookaburra in view from the balcony and a few wrens. Thank you.” (Heather and Robin UK)

“Loved watching the pecking order for the feeding – easy to see where the term ‘boss cocky’ comes from, no-one else gets a look-in when they’re around.” (Sue, Andy, Maxine and Murray).

“I wanted to just let you know also that the setup of the house was superb! We have stayed in many holiday houses and different accommodation in Victoria and South Australia and I can say that Treetops is kitted out the best! It looks like you put a lot of thought into small details. Very nice.” Andy J  – also see picture of chocky in Friends of Treetops page

“Absolute magic amongst the tree tops. After all it’s not every day you get to have a King Parrot on top of your head and shoulders eating out of your hand.It’s not every day you see a row of 12 cockatoos all being ‘butch about it’ on the railing. Or a Koala bundled up in a ball up a tree at eye level to you. Gorgeous views of the ocean, cosy, relaxing home and our dog couldn’t have been happier either. We will definitely be back – longer next time. Well done.” ( C&N and Murphy)

“Day 1. – Within an hour of arriving we were so in love with this place. Already we had named the male King Parrot “George” as he was sitting on our arms and eating out of our hands. Then walking along the beach at sunset we were greeted by a school of bottle necked dolphins. There are no words to fully capture the feeling of serenity and peace. The bird life is just amazing. We were greeted by a bird that looked like a cross between a Magpie and a Crow. Thanks for the book that helped us identify him as a Pied Currawong.

Day 2 – Thousands of birds around today. Love the King Parrots so much they are beautiful. Have emailed pics of them around the world to friends and family already. Silly us went out and left the bird seed jar outside. It had the lid on, but by the time we got back it was empty.

Day 3 -Woke to a Koala straight outside the lounge window. Watched him come down the tree and up another. How do they balance? What BEAUTIFUL ANIMALS THEY ARE. This place imparts such a feeling of tranquility. it’s a perfect spot to get away from it and just sit. I love it. Dinner down at the most beautiful pub in the world (Wye River pub) topped off a brilliant day.

Day 4 – Back home today. We’ll be back.” (Stensons and Coopers)
