Welcome to Creekton Escape where river music is all you'll hear !
We try to offer some of the best accommodation in southern Tasmania !
Beyond the mouth of the Huon River, the landscape is wilder, the peaks steeper, the sea a deeper blue – you're heading towards the end of Australia's most southerly road, on the very rim of the continent.
Along the way, the fishing fleets of Dover and Southport shelter in the deep bays where the first European navigators dropped anchor.
Today, the people of seaside towns harvest the cold, clean waters of the Channel and the Southern Ocean – plump oysters and mussels, succulent crayfish and delicate salmon.
To the west are the peaks and crags of World Heritage wilderness. In valleys running back into the hills are the world's tallest flowering plants, the mighty swamp gums.
Higher up in sub-alpine rainforests are the survivors of the break up of Gondwana, the southern super continent - plants like myrtle, celery top pine and deciduous beech, Australia's only native deciduous tree, whose ancestors lie as fossils in Antarctic rock.
Follow the route south and south again, to Recherche Bay, a place of whales and history, of timber cutters and fishermen.
One road ends, and a longer trail begins - from Cockle Creek, the South Coast Track threads its way down to the sea, where the waves of the Great Southern Ocean crash endlessly on the sands of South Cape Bay.
Mother Nature is at her most spectacular in this part of Tasmania, dazzling dolomite caves, thermal springs, deep blue waters, brilliant white beaches, cool fresh rainforests and golden sunsets. The quiet solitude of a remote place and a freedom connected to the natural sprit of the Far South, where adventure awaits you.
