About this house rental
Escape to Akebono, a private hinterland retreat in Possum Creek where families and friends can enjoy uninterrupted time together, surrounded by some of the most beautiful countryside in the Byron Bay region.
Named after the Japanese word for dawn, Akebono takes inspiration from the calm and simplicity of Japanese design. The result is a beautifully appointed home that feels peaceful from the moment you arrive, with inviting spaces to relax, unwind and enjoy the slower pace of country life.
With Wilsons River and Coorabel Creek bordering the grounds, you can spend your days swimming, exploring nature or simply enjoying the privacy of your own countryside escape. Gather for long lunches, enjoy an afternoon sauna and finish the day around the fire, with no schedules to keep and nowhere else you need to be.

Indoor Living
Akebono has the feel of a beautiful private country home rather than a typical holiday rental. Its Japanese-inspired interiors bring a sense of calm and understated luxury, while the comfortable furnishings and generous layout make it easy to settle in and feel at home.
The living spaces are designed to give everyone room to enjoy their holiday. Come together in the main lounge for a movie or an evening by the fireplace, while a second living area offers a quieter spot to read, listen to records or unwind away from the rest of the group.
Large windows open up views of the surrounding countryside, allowing you to enjoy the beautiful setting even when you're relaxing indoors.
For those who love cooking, the kitchen makes preparing meals for a group a pleasure. With a Falcon five-burner range cooker, integrated Fisher & Paykel fridge and freezer, dishwasher, microwave, Zip HydroTap and generous bench space, everything is in place for anything from easy family breakfasts to a special dinner at home.
The large timber dining table gives everyone a place to come together, making shared meals just as much a part of the holiday as the days spent exploring.
Bedrooms & Accommodation
Akebono offers a flexible arrangement for families and friends travelling together, with separate accommodation allowing guests to enjoy their own space without being disconnected from the group.
The main residence provides comfortable bedrooms close to the shared living areas, while the independent cabin and external guest room are ideal for grandparents, couples or guests who prefer a little more privacy.

Outdoor Living & Entertaining
At Akebono, you can spend an entire day outdoors without having to leave the property.
Start with a leisurely breakfast overlooking the hills, enjoy a swim while the family relaxes nearby, or take some time for yourself in the private sauna. With generous decks, open lawns and established gardens, there's room for everyone to enjoy the day at their own pace.
The outdoor dining area is where some of the best holiday memories are made. Long lunches can stretch into the afternoon, with a built-in gas BBQ for easy entertaining and a separate wood-fired BBQ for those who enjoy cooking over the coals.
There's no need to book a restaurant every evening. Pick up some beautiful local produce, open a bottle of wine and settle in for dinner with the people you've come away to spend time with.
As the sun sets over the countryside, the fire pit provides a lovely place to gather and enjoy the evening.
Rivers, Nature & Grounds
The natural surroundings give Akebono a sense of freedom that's hard to find in busier coastal locations.
Instead of planning every hour of the day, guests can enjoy the simple pleasure of being outdoors. Wander through the grounds, explore the areas beside the waterways or find a peaceful spot to sit and take in the landscape.
For children, there's space to discover nature and enjoy time away from screens, while adults can appreciate the quiet, fresh air and complete change of pace.
The surrounding trees and countryside attract abundant birdlife and wildlife, making early morning walks and quiet moments outdoors particularly rewarding.
Freshwater swimming may be possible when conditions allow, offering another way to enjoy the property's natural setting.
Please note: The river and creek are natural waterways. Water levels, currents and swimming conditions can vary, particularly after rainfall. Guests should assess conditions before entering the water, and children must be supervised at all times.
Group Suitability
Akebono is particularly well suited to extended families, multi-generational holidays and groups of friends who want to spend quality time together.
There's enough room for everyone to come together for meals and activities without feeling on top of one another, making longer stays especially comfortable.
Whether you're celebrating a milestone, bringing the family together or simply taking a well-earned break, the property offers the flexibility to enjoy a holiday at your own pace.
Its peaceful rural location makes it best suited to relaxed stays rather than parties. Small events and ceremonies may be considered with prior approval.
