It's a very cute and nice cottage, close to the visitor centre. The lady at receptionist is very friendly and helpful. Room is super clean and complete amenities and very nice and warm. With electric blanket on the bed. Highly recommend!
Experience luxury in the heart of UNESCO World Heritage-listed Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park.

The cabins were well kept and the gas fireplace really kept the whole cabin warm throughout our stay. The jacuzzi tub was a great way to relax the muscles are all the walks that we did at Cradle Mountain. Himalayan bath salt was also provided which was great. Parking is right outside the cabin which is convinient.

Had a great time in this cosy little getaway. Close to Cradle Mountain with great views from both the balcony and the living space. The kitchen had everything I needed for a comfortable stay, and the smart TV was great for a night in. Definitely recommend at least 2 nights so you get to fully enjoy what the accommodation has to offer.
Not negatives but just some things to consider:
- I recommend checking in before dark as it might be difficult to navigate the first time.
- Unsealed gravel road to property but handled fine in my 2wd SUV.
- Steep steps up to loft bed with low ceiling.
Overall an amazing stay, and I would definitely return!
One of the most scenic places we have ever seen. We went back into the park late at night to stargaze. We had never seen the Milky Way look like that. Utterly beguiling, a true “must do”. Dove Lake is just a perfect place to visit. We will definitely be returning.

An absolutely stunning national park, with lakes and mountains and lots of fresh air!
There is only one road into the park, and once you have passed the visitor centre and various accommodation options, CM can only be accessed via the Park Service's shuttle buses. This has stopped the nightmare of people driving on roads they are not capable of handling, and makes your trip up to Dove Lake far more pleasant,
Check the park service's website for ticket options and prices, and also for the range of marked walking trails to suit all capabilities.
Check out the photos, and make sure you visit at least once!

If you love walking, hiking or mountains in general Cradle Mountain is a blessing. Walks and circuits for every person, from the easy to the challenging one, from 20 minutes to 10 hours depending on your readiness, fitness, and training. Clean and well-maintained with spectacular views from the top, weather permitting :-). Keep in mind that you are in a mountain environment and the weather can change quickly and completely in a very short time. Good phone coverage on quite the whole area, and if you are into astrophotography its a Bortle 1 sky, cannot get better then that.

We loved our visit to Cradle Mountain.
We loved our visit to Cradle Mountain. Our first stop was the Devils @ Cradle sanctuary where we had an excellent tour guide who was very knowledgeable about the Tasmanian Devil and the Quolls at the sanctuary. We were able to see 5 Devils being fed. Though they looked cute, they had very sharp teeth and managed to tear through the meat and bones quickly. We then went on a bus trip to Dove Lake and were able to take some great photos. Would love to visit here again.

A wonderful place!
A wonderful place! Well worth visiting for its natural beauty, walks and wildlife. Also very well organised with shuttle around the park and to major walking tracks. Definitely worth visiting ng Waldheim for the history of the place

Love the walks at Cradle Mountain.
Love the walks at Cradle Mountain. We went to devils@cradel which was so interesting. Really recommend it but keep your hands out of the devil enclosures! Bring warm clothes - lots of layers is best. We were there end of Feb and it was cold at night and early morning. We had a wild wombat just amble by, eating as it went.

The Villa Cabin was exceptionally clean, warm and welcoming upon arrival. The bathroom had towel rack warmers. I really liked how there was plenty of room with a spacious living and kitchen area. Plenty of room for the kids to roam around. Extra blankets in cupboards were also a nice touch. Location was superb being right adjacent to the cradle mountain visitor centre. The main restaurant was closed during our stay and we dined at Peppers Tavern which was only 5min down the road!
Our room was very comfortable. The hotel feels pretty upmarket, and has a spa and different meal options available. We had the buffet breakfast & at night were happy with the food choices from the bar (oh, and the beer and mulled gin!). Log fires were warm and cosy. We enjoyed the bush views from the back deck over a quiet beer after a long day of hiking at Cradle Mountain (tourist info centre barely a kilometre down the road).
Our family of three absolutely loved our stay at the Cradle Mountain Highlanders. It was our favourite accommodation whilst in Tassie. It was very clean and well appointed. Excellent cooking facilities. The beds were super comfortable. The cabins are spaced well appart with trees all around with wildlife literally at your doorstep. It was such a peaceful, private place to stay, so quiet. We would definitely stay here again.
There is so much to like about Peppers Cradle Mountain Lodge, it's hard to know where to start.
Facilities are amazing, food out of this world, staff are incredibly helpful and friendly and of course the location is exceptional.
Spend some time in the day spa for a very relaxing afternoon to cap your visit off.
In short an incredible stay, it's a little pricey but worth it
It is quiet, the cabins are well spread out, and it’s located so closed to the visitor centre. The cabin we stayed in is spacious, clean and has everything we need to keep us warm and snug. tThe kitchen is very well equipped so we could cook our meals. Dianne was very welcoming and the gentleman staff was very nice to teach us how to lit the wood fire.
Perfect location for exploring Cradle Mountain. Abundant wildlife just outside the door and beautiful walking paths on the property. Rooms were spacious and comfortable. Dining room had great food for dinner and an excellent buffet for breakfast. Saw Wallabys, Paddymelons, Wombats all over the grounds. Overall, an amazing stay.
Accommodation in Cradle Mountain can be expensive, so this was a good quality hotel that represented better value for money.
Beautifully situated with our room opening out onto the forest and the room itself was good; large, clean and warm.
Breakfast which was included was plentiful and good.
We had an upgrade into the two bedroom deluxe cabins which are new. The underfloor heating was a lovely addition on the cold mornings. The cabin is fantastic and had all we needed, very comfortable. Easy to walk to the bus for Cradle Mountain and staff were super friendly and helpful.
The location of the hotel is great, the staffs are all very friendly and supportive, the lodge area is super comfy. You can even enjoy a great massage in the hotel after a whole day of hiking. Will definitely come again and recommend to friends.
Stunning incredible view of the pond from our balcony. Spacious room in a cute cabin with gas fireplace in the room. Breakfast was included. And close to wonderful enchanting trails. Absolutely loved this hotel and the experience we had here.
Location of the Discovery Park, is its greatest advantage. Its quiet, peaceful and walking distance to cradle mountain visitor centre. Getting in and out of the lodge is vey easy. Cabins are big enough to host a family.
Perfect location right across from Cradle Mountain Park visitor center. Quiet and close to nature, private. Great value for being in a National Park. Clean and comfy. Stocked wood stove and extra wood.
Great accommodation so close to the shuttle buses heading into Cradle Mountain. We loved that you couldn't see any of the neighbouring cabins and all the different wildlife
Perfect location right across the road from the visitor centre to access all walks easily. Very warm and cosy with the heater. Nice hot showers in the cabins.
The restaurant was closed while we were there due to unfortunate shortage of staff, so for food we had to go to Cradle Mountain Lodge which was open everyday.
We ate at the restaurant at Cradle mountain wilderness resort one night for dinner and Peppers the second night. Food was good. Prices were a little high.
