“We have enjoyed our quiet and peaceful two days at Treetops – nice to get away from the rat race.  Loved the king parrots feeding from our hands – so tame.  Shame we couldn’t have stayed longer as Molly our pooch was getting to like it too.” Richard and Sue.

“We are leaving tomorrow after six days and I am very sad.  Mummy, daddy and I (Joe, aged 3 ¾ years) had a fab time here.  Fed the parrots every day in the morning and at night.  Mummy had a kookaburra on her knee.  We saw two koalas fighting up the tree across the balcony.  They were very loud.  I walked up the hill all on my own, from the lovely beach.  Mummy and daddy told me they love the house and the Great Ocean Road.  Daddy needed a rest from work and Mummy needed some fresh air – we live in Jakarta.  Thank you for letting us stay here.” Joe, with his parents.

“Although we all enjoyed our stay, it was Bear who had the most fun at Treetops -whether it’s befriending the birds (who have yet to appreciate her curiosity) or tasting the flies, Bear has had a grand time traipsing on your flowers.  And yes we let it mellow. Treetops was appropriately named. I think we have all fallen in love with the birds!  The views are spectacular and we were all up at six for the walk to the beach for sunrise.” Bear, Kat, Dave et al.

“Our third time here in a year and still can’t get enough.  This time bought my sister and her two kids from the US. We saw starfish and crabs in the tidal pools, and feeding the parrots made our day.  Molly, the labrador feels right at home!  We’ll e-mail some pictures.” Stephanie and Molly.

“Thank you for sharing your house with us.  All had a fantastic time including Bailey the dog, who eventually mastered the stairs.  We all loved the views and the birds — they would get really fat if we stayed here too long, as everyone wanted to keep feeding them.” Val and John, Eltham.

“Our stay at Treetops was a real good experience. Our two dogs Bubby and Shredder loved the birds, water, sand and most of all the stairs.  It was so beautiful and relaxing, it got my partner to propose to me.  The views were perfect and we finally got around all the bugs.  The house is amazing, each window has a beautiful view and the dogs got a little confused about going up the stairs or down.  Overall our stay here was wonderful, we will be back one day. P.S. I said yes to his proposal.” C & M, Bubby and Shredder.

“Back again for our FOURTH visit and our first in winter. I think we like it even more! This house and this place are becoming etched in our daughter’s memory and in our Labrador’s memory, as one of the best places in the world.

We finally saw a koala out back and the rosellas and parrots are glad we came. No kookas or cockatoos this time, though. Wonderful walks on the beach and shell collecting – like it was our own private beach! See you again in a few months.” Stephanie, Alec, Allegra and Molly.

“Talk about gorgeous accommodation! ” Bettina and Gareth Mitchell.

“It’s been a great pleasure staying in this truly wonderful house at Wye River.  The views from the balcony and the birds are fantastic. We would all love to come back again, many thanks.” The Thomases, UK.
