Escape, rejuvenate and explore the seclusion of the award-winning Red Rocks Mountain Retreat - a beautiful, off the grid property that oozes comfort, relaxation and total privacy. On Sundays or Public Holidays, or if you stay for 3 nights between Monday and Thursday, you can also request a 4pm late check!

Immerse yourself in the surrounding nature and totally unwind. Recharge in the sunken outdoor bath with views to the South Coast. Cozy up to the fireplace or one of the two outdoor firepits. Explore the secret waterfall, and at sunset, take a drink and meander to the sensational Red Rocks Trig Lookout overlooking Kangaroo Valley.

Red Rocks Mountain Retreat is an off-grid, renovated stone and timber house. It is secluded on 40 acres, nestled between Cambewarra Range Nature Reserve and old growth forest, with views to the South Coast.

Winning Home Design Magazine’s ‘Renovation of the Year’ award, the main kitchen, dining and living area showcases a rustic raking ceiling design featuring striking raw timber poles and beams, polished concrete floor with large windows and doorways that draw in the view and beautiful natural light. The bathroom area features invigorating open indoor and outdoor showers with a cosy, sunken outdoor bathtub to enjoy the views.

The adjoining shed is for private use only and not in use whilst guests are present.

The feature sandstone red rocks wrap around one end of the house where there's a flat rock for chilling. Unwind and observe the view with abundant bird life.

Additional Information

The award-winning Red Rocks Mountain Retreat is positioned near the top of the Cambewarra range at an elevation of 590m and located 6.42km off Moss Vale Road along an unsealed gravel and dirt road that passes through the temperate rainforest, dry shrub and old growth forest of the Cambewarra Nature Reserve. [Please note the unsealed gravel and dirt road is OK for 2WD cars and an adventure in itself, however with a few undulations, we do not recommend very low clearance cars.]

Red Rocks Retreat is one on the most secluded properties in the Kangaroo Valley region, with regular sighting of echidnas, abundance of bird life and endangered rock wallabies.

From this secluded mountain location you are amongst nature, with awesome views, relaxing hikes to amazing lookouts and mountain biking throughout the mountain range. Yet, you are still close to it all with short drives to Kangaroo Valley township located within 20 mins, Berry and the South Coast, a 30-35 min from the property.

Red Rocks Trig Point lookout is a comfortable 2.4km hike/walk from Red Rocks Mountain Retreat with sensational views over Kangaroo Valley. This trail/lookout is great for mountain hiking, walking and MTB riding and it's unlikely you'll encounter many other people while exploring. The trail/lookout is open year-round and is specular to visit at sunset.

At its heart Red Rocks Mountain Retreat is sustainable, simplicity at its best. The most secluded of rental properties where privacy is guaranteed.
Red Rocks Mountain Retreat is an off grid, passive heating and cooling retreat for all year-round comfort. Inside there is a wet-back slow combustion fireplace which not only provides you with the comfort of a fire, but also doubles up as a warming oven and hot water for the radiators. The insulated double-glazed windows and doors keep the house warm in winter and cool in summer. Solar powered electricity provides for the under-floor heating in the bathroom and toilet. Cooling options include opening up the extensive windows and doors for cross ventilation to catch the breeze and ceiling fans are in the bedrooms.

The adjoining shed is for private use only and not in use whilst quests are present.

You come to Red Rocks Retreat for an off-grid experience, where you are immersed in nature, with all the modern facilities.

Secret Waterfall Nearby

Located just past the northern end of our property is our secret waterfall. Through one of the trails detailed in our 'Welcome Booklet', you arrive to the top of the secluded 40m waterfall. There are also very small water holes along the creek to cool off.

School Creek Waterfall

This bush walk took us along tracks with some of the most beautiful native flowers we’ve ever seen! It ended at a small hidden waterfall and cascades.
