Nestled on the Snowy and Mowamba Rivers just outside Jindabyne NSW, Freaks of Nature Retreat is more than a place to stay - it’s a celebration of nature, comfort and mindful living.
From the moment we moved out to this 24-hectare slice of paradise, our dream was clear: to create a space where guests can relax, reconnect with nature, and experience luxury while treading lightly on the earth.
This land has a rich history. In 1974, our Grandad purchased the property and, being a true renaissance man, built a completely off-grid solar system from materials he could find. His ingenuity and respect for the environment sparked a lifelong journey of sustainable living - a journey we proudly continue today. Every corner of our retreat reflects these values, guided by the principles of reduce, reuse, repair, repurpose, rethink and recycle, while offering the comforts of a premium eco-friendly retreat in the Snowy Mountains.
More than 50 years later, we are still 100% off-grid, always learning new ways to live lightly and care for the land. At Freaks of Nature Retreat, we combine luxury camping near Jindabyne with genuine sustainability: high-end safari tents, cosy alpine comforts, private bathrooms, outdoor bathtubs, and fully equipped camping kitchens that cover the finer things like coffee machines and dishwashers - all designed to let you enjoy the best of the Snowy Mountains without compromising the environment.
We love sharing this space and our journey with you. Come slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with the natural beauty of the Snowy Mountains. Whether you’re here for a romantic escape, a luxury nature getaway, or just to experience eco-living in style, we’re always happy to share our story and show how sustainability and luxury can live beautifully side by side.
