We have never stayed in such a clean and well appointed place!! Everything was provided for... food for breakfast, fruit, robes, slippers...we even got a vase of fresh flowers! All the items for breakfast were of top local quality... and so very, very nice!!! You can hear the little river from the back deck while you sit in very comfortable deck chairs.... there is bird life all around you in the rain forest, which is just meters away. Very tranquil!

There was absolutely not a single thing to not like about this place or our hosts! Everything was exceptional!!!

We had a fantastic stay at Sharlynn by the River as a group of 3 friends. This property definitely exceeded our expectations. Thanks to John and Pam for being very accommodating, we really enjoyed the morning coffee and breakfast. The cabin is very comfortable and the decking around it is beautiful. Sadly, did not see any tree kangaroos, we loved out stay by the river. A great base to explore the Atherton tablelands and chill out.

Nothing - this was one of the best accommodations I have booked in Australia. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Excellent home away from home!! with very cosy, warm, and private surroundings. Pam & John really take care and welcome their guests really well (with only one guest group taken up at any time). The cabin was located in a natural private rain forest resort with river and birds chorus in the background. The cabin was very well equipped with top rated fittings and appliances and loaded with all the goodies from local organic fruits and dairy supply. We, as a family of three adults, ended up spending more time relaxing in the accommodating than touring. It was the highlight of our five days trip.

'Wow' is the only word to describe 'Sharlynn'! We spent two wonderful nights here and wished we could have stayed longer. A place to chill, relax and simply enjoy the surroundings - rain forest outside the door; Johnson River at the bottom of the slope; massive, comfortably furnished terrace'/verandah with BBQ overlooking the rain forest. And the accommodation - spacious, incredibly well equipped kitchen, comfortable longe area, very comfortable bed and huge, well equipped bathroom. And enough food for two, large gourmet breakfasts with plenty of choice (and there will still be some left over). You make breakfast yourself, but that's all part of the experience. Absolutely loved it!

We loved how relaxing, comfortable and private this stay was. The attention to detail for every need, plus extras that made our stay magical. The breakfast food supplied was through their farm and local produce which added that extra touch. The sound and sights of the rainforest and river, the decking, private veranda and viewing deck. The fireplace and also the spa bath... The robes and complimentary port before bed. The owners are very passionate about their property and hosting. The dog (Charlie) is so adorable.

Loved the location and accomodation. Our hosts John and Pam were excellant nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast goods and local produce very ample, didn't want for anything. Learn't a few tips and tricks to living in a wet tropical environment.

Nothing, wish I had learnt how to play guitar. Didn't bring enough film for my camera. Really would like to have used fire place, need to go in winter next time,

Private, thoughtfully-equipped cabin that is clean, comfortable and spacious. located in a beautiful and pristine natural settings. Special welcome by a very warm and intelligent dog, Charlie who will alert his owners to tree kangaroo sightings on the property. We did not have to venture out to look for one and were very lucky to spot one from the veranda! Lovely owners, Pam and John who clearly set aside time and effort to ensure an exception stay, they are always keen to share their knowledge about the surroundings. Fridge and pantry well stocked with local produce, more than enough than just breakfast.

OMG, what a beautiful place to stay. We saw tree kangaroos, platypuses, fireflies and had breakfast with Charlie. Thank you Pam and John for the fridge and kitchen full of very tasty goodies.  Very comfy cabin with an awesome deck for spotting tree kangaroos.  Thanks so much, great place to stay. We'll be letting our friends & family know we had a great visit.

The peacefulness and tranquility. John & Pam made us feel very comfortable and even stocked up our fridge with a lot of fresh, delicious foods, which we loved and appreciated very much. We enjoyed every minute, thank you again!

Nothing. Everything was as advertised and more. We just wished we could have hung out with their dog (Charlie) more! :P

breakfast was fantastic and easy with plenty of local produce supplied. The location was quiet and relaxing, even with the weather (rain)' the extras supplied was a lovely surprise. Plenty of reading books, movies Netflix and photography opportunities. fire place was well used and kept the cabin toasty.

Limited hiking trails available / close by, Parking area bit tight and no reception ( but that was great, as we walked up the road and met locals and saw plenty of wildlife, it was exceptionally great not to be interrupted and we throughly enjoyed the serenity of the cabin)
