what to expect at Moo bay muse in the daintree

the moo bay muse - daintree, FNQ, australia.

The Moo Bay Muse is located in a relatively remote area so it is important to bring adequate supplies of food and other essentials with you. A small supermarket is located a 20 minute drive to the north. The closest large supermarket is at Mossman, an hours drive to the south.

Designed specifically to function as a retreat from the rest of the world, the Muse is meant to inspire peace and tranquility as well as the desire to be creative. Hence it’s name – it is a retreat for the artist in us all.
Electricity is harvested via solar panels from the sun and stored in batteries. There is an inverter to run electrical equipment such as the on site Stereo and TV. The fridge and lighting are 24 volt and run directly from the stored battery power.

Rain water is collected and stored in three large storage tanks. Hot water is supplied by a gas hot water system and there is a gas stove cooktop in the kitchen.

There is also a gas BBQ and a camp fire BBQ. A supply of ready cut firewood and kindling is provided.

The Muse whilst closable, is built to be open to the elements and as such
there are no insect screens. Please open all the doors and windows and let
the air circulate through the house. This allows the house [and you]to breathe.
The cottage is fenced to keep any stray large wildlife from getting up too
close and personal.

All linen and beach towels are supplied with extra supplies on site.

There is a DVD player, CD player and small flat screen TV. Digital Austar is connected however free to air TV is not available in the area. Access to Broadband is via a satellite dish. The Muse also has a CD library and a selection of Books, Games and DVD’s for guest use as well as 2 pushbikes and helmets and snorkelling gear.

On arrival at the Muse you will be met by someone who has an understanding of how the house works. They will explain how to use the Muses amenities. Please be aware that at all times there is a need to conserve power and water whenever possible. If you are efficient in its use you should have no shortage of either.

Hair dryers and irons are not permitted. Laundry can be done by arrangement and requires the use of a generator for the extra power requirement.

The Moo Bay Muse is serviced every 3-4 days. Basic servicing includes maintenance of the electricity and water supply, washing of clothes if required and gardening. Both the Power and Water storage systems will be checked and if necessary replenished.
