The Enchanted Cave
Amazing cabin, was great to reconnect with nature, everything you needed to completely unwind.

Romantic Stargazing Dome +Hot Tub ‘Beyond Bubbles’
We stayed there for my partner's birthday, it was amazing and relaxing! We loved the bubble and the outside area. The sunset view was incredible. 💕💕🥰🎉

Waterfront Treehouse on the Hawkesbury River
The treehouse is in such a tranquil and beautiful spot. Inside is very cosy and between the wood stove and gas heater it was toasty warm inside on cold evenings. The kitchen is very well set up with everything you could need for cooking and also a good selection of sauces, tea, coffee and staples. The treehouse has been very thoughtfully set up with nice touches like blankets on the balcony. Highly recommended for a relaxing place to get away close to Sydney..we thoroughly enjoyed it!!

Lovers Hideaway River House
Cant get over how beautiful our weekend was, staying at this Air BnB. So so peaceful, the house is done so homely. There’s no much to add, as the description depicts it perfectly. I would recommended, highly!!!

Bulga Amaroo, Bilpin
We stayed at the airbnb for 2 nights and it was everything we thought it would be if not better. The cabin was positioned in a scenic place with a beautiful view of the mountains. We added the charcuterie and champagne package which we really enjoyed and was definitely worth the upgrade. Jeanette was a extremely helpful host and provided great suggestions of things to do and see and was very responsive to all of our questions. Highly recommend to stay at this lovely cabin.

The Lantern - a Huch experience
Spent 2 winter nights at The Lantern and it was amazing. Far enough that you feel like you have escaped but close enough that it doesn’t feel like a chore to get to. Communication with Michael was prompt and efficient and the cabin perfectly outfitted with everything you could need. The bed and bedding top notch and the electric blankets especially helpful as we had 2 cold nights. Highlight is the wood fire hot tub and the bathroom/shower area. The overall design of the entire place is really comfortable and inviting. Would highly recommend coming with food to cook - once we arrived we did not want to leave. And in fact, we can’t wait to return in the future.

Water front Cabin on the Hawkesbury
Amazing! Cabin was so great and very welcoming! Perfect for a mini family vacation! And beautiful view! Michele was so great with communication and so amazing to discuss anything with in regard to my stay! Will be back!

Tiny House - Twin Elks in Somersby
Sean’s tiny home is the perfect “off grid” romantic getaway. Very cosy and well thought out. The fire tub is an awesome touch. He had it warmed up when we got there and we heated it up for a couple more hours later at night and it was super relaxing. Can’t wait to come back.

Your guide to Wisemans Ferry
All About Wisemans Ferry
Less than an hour’s drive from Sydney, in the heart of the Hawkesbury River and at the end of a winding road through rugged bushland, you’ll find the charming town of Wisemans Ferry. There’s plenty of accommodations at Wisemans Ferry from which to choose, and the village also offers a gallery, a few boutique shops, and a well-known pub — a great spot to enjoy some lunch while overlooking the river. The area has a rich Aboriginal and European history, and was named after its founder, a British expat of the same name. You can still see Wiseman’s hand-hewed sandstone residence in the village.
Wisemans Ferry is also home to a ferry service, the oldest ferry crossing still in operation in New South Wales. You can picnic along the banks of the river, go fishing, kayak, water-ski, or even hire a boat or houseboat. Local farms offer fruit picking during the winter, and the Wisemans Ferry park has barbeques, picnic areas, and some excellent playgrounds. The surrounding Dharug National Park is an ideal destination for bushwalks and picnics as well as mountain biking, and also offers camping at Mill Creek and Ten Mile Hollow.
The best time to stay in a holiday rental in Wisemans Ferry
Wisemans Ferry is a relaxed and friendly village that’s lovely to visit at any time of the year. Whether you’re staying for a weekend, or wanting a longer getaway, this is an appealing destination, especially for families. The weather in Wisemans Ferry is relatively mild and temperate, and extreme conditions are rare. During the warmer months, the area is a popular destination for water-skiing and swimming, and there are several ski-parks dotted along the Hawkesbury River. It’s also a great season for picnics by the river, and enjoying the outdoor playgrounds. The cooler months are ideal for bushwalking, as trails can get very hot and humid during the peak of summer and keen anglers are attracted to the fishing opportunities all year round.
Top things to do in Wisemans Ferry
Bushwalking
The surrounding Dharug National Park offers an abundance of walking trails, including the 1.6 kilometre Grass Tree Circuit, which is great for families, an 11 kilometre Devines Hill Loop, and the longer 18 kilometre Dubbo Gully Loop Trail. A great thing to do is walk the Convict Trail, which runs north from Sydney all the way to the Hunter Valley. Most of this road continues to be used today, but it’s a great chance to see some of the brilliant engineering work from centuries of hard work and sweat.
Hawkesbury River
The Wisemans Ferry, sharing its name with the town, is a small and charming cable ferry that provides a passage across the Hawkesbury River for both people and vehicles. It’s free, and runs day and night, seven days a week. Take a trip over the river to see what the northern side of the river has to offer, or to continue heading north to the Hunter Valley.
Mandarin picking
Thanks to the area’s fertile soil, Wisemans Ferry is surrounded by pretty orchards and rich farmland. Going mandarin picking at one of the local family farms is always a popular activity that the whole family will love.
