We really enjoyed our time at this resort, nestled in a beautiful forest location. The cabin was spacious and clean, offering a peaceful escape. However, some areas could use a refresh, and we did face a bit of heat due to the lack of air conditioning in the bedrooms. Overall, it's a charming spot for nature lovers, especially for spotting wildlife like platypus.

The Broken River Mountain Resort offers a unique experience with its stunning nature views and proximity to platypus spotting areas. The clean and spacious rooms cater well for families, and I appreciated the self-catering options. However, the dining options need improvement, as the menu lacks variety and freshness. While the location is perfect for outdoor activities, some amenities feel outdated, which detracts from the overall experience.

Staying here felt like discovering a hidden gem! The peaceful surroundings immediately put me at ease, and I was fortunate enough to enjoy the company of playful platypuses. Although the accommodation was a bit dated, it was impeccably clean. The dining experience could use improvement, as I encountered some unsatisfying meals. Overall, this place is a great choice for anyone looking to unwind in nature.
