Location close to visitor centre, peaceful bush location, with wildlife around. Cabin is comfortable with new furnishings, and it is a reasonable size. And verandah is looking into the bush setting. Heated up well, beds comfortable (a little soft, though). On-site restaurant lovely,with view. Would stay here again and recommend it to others. Staff friendly and helpful.

Amazing views, firewood for us to use, all utensils for cooking
Set in Moina, 33 km from Dove Lake, Cradle forest inn offers accommodation with a garden, free private parking and a terrace. Guests can enjoy garden views.
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 location was excellent, very close to the visitors centre and bus to the park.
The happy hour bought everyone to the well appointed lounge area with picture perfect views of Cradle Mountain.
Although our cabin was close to the both the next door cabins our back verandah had uninterrupted views of the bushland.
The cabin was well appointed, easy to heat and comfortable.
The location is great directly across the visitor centre, the setting is beautiful and secluded in the bush with good distance between cabins, the staff was friendly, there was good communication and check in and check out were easy. The cabin has everything you need. The gas heater works great. You might also be lucky enough to see the resident wombat and her baby.
The bar area was stunning, loved the extra little lounge rooms with fires. Breakfast was good value. Charlie on reception is an absolute asset to the resort- so friendly and full of excellent tips for our stay in Cradle Mountain and beyond. Nice hot showers and free wifi. The little boardwalk at the back of the hotel was also lovely.
Free shuttle bus to connect to the cradle mountain shuttle bus. Very convenient. Indoor spa tub can help you recover from the trails. Warm fireplace keeps you warm and the balcony will have wild animals and easy to see the stars. The hotel itself has a lot of trails from 10minutes to 1 hour. The breakfast is very good.
The Tavern food was absolutely delicious and well priced. Our Cabin was towards the back of the hotel area with a forest walk right outside our door. The forest view was amazing, so calming and peaceful. The hotel itself is just outside the national park, and a 2min walk to the nearest shuttle bus stop.
Cosy cottage with kitchen and everything you need. Lots of wildlife to.see right at your front door. Only 5 minutes walk to the visitor center where you can catch the shuttle bus to all the great hikes/climbs/walks. Will definitely stay here again when returning to Cradle Mountain.
Great location very close to the Cradle Mountain Visitor Centre and access to the national park. Cabin was very comfortable with kitchenette - we self catered for 2 nights and got takeaway from the hotel one night.
Lovely to have privacy and peace and quiet.
This place located within easy reach of Cradle Mountain. The room itself was sizable, with a gas 'log' fireplace within the room. The balcony looking out to the grass and pond was lovely. We caught sight of wallabies and possums from our balcony.
Peppers Cradle Mountain Lodge is the more expensive but premier accommodation at the Cradle Mountains. It's idyllic setting in the wilderness means that at dusk and dawn, you will see free-ranging wombats and padymelons outside your room.
We were in one of the new cabins and it was great. Had everything we needed, bed was comfy and it even has a fireplace in the living room. Would definitely come back to stay here again if we ever head up to Cradle Mountain again.
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.
Comfortable, roomy cabins opposite the National Park visitor centre. perfect spot to base yourself for a visit to Dove Lake and Cradle Mountain. Plenty of firewood provided for the fireplace.
Highlanders was perfect - the cabins were well organised the staff wonderful and the location is perfect . Walking distance to the visitor centre to catch the bus to cradle mountain
