The Canopy Treehouses Award-winning Eco-resort in a lush tropical rainforest teeming with wildlife. Situated in the stunnin

Purpose designed for comfort in the wilderness, our luxury timber and glass Treehouses are perched high in the rainforest canopy on the banks of the flowing Ithaca River. Positioned for complete privacy each Treehouse has king beds, a double spa, a wood fireplace, fully self-contained kitchen, and a balcony with a BBQ and hammock. All are totally secluded and offer a spectacular retreat from the everyday. In a world of rapidly shrinking ecosystems our protected 100 acres of rare upland complex mesophyll vine forest is part of one of the largest untouched tracts of rainforest on the Cairns Highlands and offers a phenomenally high density of rare and unique wildlife

Resident Cassowaries, rare Lumholtz’s Tree Kangaroos and endangered Green Possums call our forest home whilst shy platypus inhabit our river. Pademelon Wallabies abound and Coppery Brushtail Possums will visit your balcony every night, whilst Northern Bandicoots and other marsupials forage on the evening forest floor. Wake to a serenade of birdsong every morning as an ever-changing parade of rainforest birds greet you on your Treehouse balcony, or wander along our many walking tracks and immerse yourself in the grandeur of pristine, old growth, high country rainforest. We are privileged to be the custodians of this very precious, special place. The magnificent Cairns Highland’s region also boasts stunning waterfalls and crystal clear lakes, ancient national parks, majestic trees and walking trails, and local crafts, artisans and markets.

🌳💚 HAPPY HUMP DAY - HUG A TREE!

When was the last time you stopped, took a deep breath and simply enjoyed the beauty of nature? 🌿

Here at The Canopy, we're surrounded by towering trees, lush greenery and the peaceful magic of the rainforest 🍃

"So today, we're giving a shout-out to everyone to show a little love to the trees that make our world so special.

🌿A Sunday in the rainforest...💚

Slow down.
Breathe deeply.
Listen to the rainforest.
Let the outside world feel a little further away.

There's something about waking amongst the trees, stepping onto your private balcony and simply taking a moment to be still.

No rush. No schedule. Just the sounds of the rainforest, the breeze through the canopy and time to reconnect. 🌿🌞

Sometimes, you don't need to go anywhere. You just need to slow down. 💚

🌿Australian Wildlife Week💚

Meet one of the rainforest's most enchanting residents - the Green Ringtail Possum. 🐾

Quiet, beautifully camouflaged and perfectly at home amongst the rainforest canopy, these special little possums can be surprisingly hard to spot.

But when you do...it's a pretty magical rainforest moment.💚

So while you're staying at the Canopy Treehouses Wildlife Sanctuary remember to look up. You never know who might be watching from the trees. 🌿🐾

🌿Australian Wildlife Week 💚

At Canopy Treehouses & Wildlife Sanctuary the rainforest isn't just our backdrop - it's home.

As an eco-certified property and conservation area, we're committed to caring for the natural environment around us and helping protect the rainforest habitat that our wildlife depends on. 🐾🌳🌿

From cassowaries, pademelons, tree kangaroos, possums, to turtles and platypus, and the countless rainforest birds, we're incredibly lucky to share this special place with them. 🙏

This Australian Wildlife Week, we're celebrating the importance of protecting the places wildlife calls home - because sometimes the best thing we can do is simply give nature the space to thrive. 💚

🐢Happy Turtle Tuesday!💚 Who else is having a shell-abulous time during school holidays? ☺️ Our little freshwater buddies are making the most of it too! Meet the Saw-shelled Turtle, the ultimate rainforest waterways couch potato 🌿💦. They're so chill, they'll make you wanna trade your worries for a pair of flippers 😂. Keep your 👀 peeled on our rainforest walks, or you might just miss a turtle-ly awesome encounter! 🐢🌿💚

🖤Where's the Cassowary Family Gone?

Our cassowary family are regular visitors around the Canopy Treehouses - often spotted wandering through the rainforest or out in the open around the homestead.

But lately...they've gone quiet. 🌿

We know 'Mrs' Cassowary has been spotted recently - but where have the rest of the family disappeared to?

After seeing the pair courting, we can't help but wonder...could Dad be somewhere quietly keeping a very important secret? 👀

We'll be keeping our eyes and ears open.

Who knows what might be happening beneath the canopy? 💚

🌿A rainforest Sunday...

Cooler air.
Birdsong in the trees.
The sound of water moving through the rainforest.

Sometimes the best part of being here is simply slowing down
enough to notice it all.

💚Take a breath. Look around. You're beneath the canopy.

🌿A Little Further Afield...

💦Millaa Millaa Falls

If you're looking for a peaceful little outing while you're staying at Canopy Treehouses, why not head to Millaa Millaa Falls?

Take in the beautiful waterfall, explore a little further along the waterfall circuit, then call in at Mungalli Creek Dairy for a cup of tea, a delicious ice cream or a taste of their local produce 🍰🍦🧀

A lovely little taste of the Tablelands. 💚





It's the kind of outing where you can slow down, enjoy the scenery and let the afternoon unfold

🐾Creature Feature Friday

This week's star: the Platypus 🤎

A duck-like bill, webbed feet, a beaver-like tail....and an ability to do something most mammals definitely don't - lay eggs!

A few more curious facts:

Platypus are one of the only five species of egg-laying mammals in the world.

They spend much of their time in water, where they forage for insects, worms, small crustaceans and other aquatic treats 😋

👀When underwater, they close their eyes, ears and nostrils and use sensitive receptors in their bill to help detect prey.

Here at the Canopy Treehouses, platypus are part of the river's everyday life, and guests often have pleasure of watching them going about their everyday routines.

Creature Feature Friday - you never quite know what wonderful wildlife you'll discover at the Canopy Treehouses Wildlife Sanctuary 💚
