Welcome to Glamping at Marysville Holiday Park

Our glamping tents at Marysville Holiday Park are set along the Steavenson River and offer a simple, comfortable way to enjoy a nature-based stay without giving up the essentials. Each tent is hard-wired, includes heating and cooling, and is positioned for a peaceful riverside escape.

With three tents across two styles, our glamping accommodation is ideal for couples, romantic getaways and small group bookings. The tents are only a short stroll from the amenities block and provide an easy way to unwind in Marysville while staying close to the region’s walks, waterfalls and local attractions.

We do not recommend glamping if you don’t want to fall asleep to the soft rhythm of the river and wake to a peaceful morning in Marysville.

LYREBIRD | KOOKABURRA | BLACK COCKATOO

Three tents on the Steavenson River. One larger fixed-deck tent (the Lyrebird) and two five-metre round bell tents (the Kookaburra and the Black Cockatoo). All three have the same core fit-out: queen bed with linen, reverse-cycle climate control, coffee machine, kettle and microwave, outdoor deck with a gazebo and firepit, and hard-wired power. The Lyrebird is roomier inside; the two bell tents have a different feel from the canvas dome and sit in different spots on the riverbank.

Lyrebird Tent

The Lyrebird is the largest of the three glamping tents. A six-metre by four-metre Twin Pro tent on a fixed timber deck, right on the riverbank. The shape gives you the most interior space and the most layered floor plan inside. There is a separate seating area with two occasional chairs. The queen bed sits along one wall with full linen. A TV handles USB or DVD playback for nights when you want to wind down inside rather than out by the fire.

Reverse-cycle split system for year-round comfort
Hard-wired power throughout

The Lyrebird suits couples wanting more room inside the tent, longer stays, and any night where you want the option of staying in rather than spending the whole evening outside.

Kookaburra Tent

The Kookaburra is a five-metre round bell tent on its own deck on the riverbank. The canvas dome gives the inside a different feel from the Lyrebird, more enclosed and shelter-like, with plush rugs and cushions softening the floor space. The queen bed sits centred under the apex and the reverse-cycle split system holds the temperature regardless of season.

The Kookaburra and Black Cockatoo share the same fit-out and tent style. The differentiation between them comes down to position on the riverbank, outlook from inside, light at different times of day, and proximity to neighbouring tents. None of that is in the profile or on the live page. Operator input from Cameron, Steph or Kim would let us write more useful differentiation here and on the individual tent pages. Until that input arrives, the descriptions are written honestly (same fit-out, different positions) without fabricated position-specific detail.

The Kookaburra and the Black Cockatoo share the same fit-out. The positions on the riverbank and the outlook from each tent are what differ between them.

Black Cockatoo Tent

The Black Cockatoo is the second of the two five-metre round bell tents, on its own deck a short walk from the Kookaburra. Same canvas dome, same plush rug and cushion set-up inside, same queen bed centred under the apex, same reverse-cycle climate control. The position on the riverbank and the outlook from inside the tent are what set it apart from the Kookaburra.

Where the glamping zone sits in the park

The three glamping tents are clustered on the river side of the park, away from the main cabin and camping zones. From the tents it is a short walk along a lit path to the amenities block, the camp kitchen, and the office.

Last week, our whole family stayed here, using both a caravan site and a glamping tent. We had a wonderful experience. The natural surroundings were beautiful, and the location was very convenient. We were a little worried after reading some of the reviews, but the toilets were well maintained, and the showers always had plenty of hot water. We also had a lovely chat with Kim at reception. She was incredibly kind and warm, and her friendly service made us feel very welcome. Our family will definitely be back for our next holiday, and we will happily recommend this place to our friends.

Never been Glamping before, and I'm so glad I booked at Marysville Holiday Park. The amenities in the tent and layout are 5-star. Felt like a hotel room, not a tent. Cozy and warm. Kim was a great help in advising where to get firewood, the layout of the park, and the IGA and Pub locations, which were just a short walk away. Kim had the heater and electric blankets on by the time we arrived, so it was very toasty in the tent. Had a wonderful fire pit that evening. So peaceful and tranquil.

Highly recommend.

Glamping at Marysville Holiday Park:
Your practical questions answered

Check-in is from 2pm and check-out is by 10am. If you are driving up after work and arriving late, let us know when you book and we will leave the key and instructions ready for you. Early arrival depends on whether the tent was used the night before; ring the office on the day to check.

The bed is made up with linen and pillows. The tent is at temperature (we run the reverse-cycle system before you arrive in cold weather). The kitchen has a coffee machine, kettle, microwave, fridge, plates, mugs, cutlery and basic cookware. Towels are included. You bring food, warm layers, toiletries and a torch for the walk to the amenities at night.

No. The glamping tents share the park’s amenities block, which sits a short walk along a lit path from the tent zone. The amenities have hot showers, separate toilets and basins, and are cleaned to a holiday-park standard. Bring a torch for the walk to the amenities at night (Q2 above lists what to pack). At peak times, particularly long weekends and school holiday Saturdays, the amenities can be busier in the morning rush; outside those windows you usually have the space to yourself.

There is parking near the glamping zone. You will not be parking right next to the tent (the tents sit back from the road on a quieter run of the riverbank) but the walk from car to tent is short. The team at the office will show you where to park when you check in.

The glamping tents are couples-only and the glamping zone is kid-free and dog-free by design. If you are travelling with family, our Maple cabins, Riverview and Garden View cabins and powered camping sites are all family-friendly. If you are travelling with a dog, our pet-friendly cabins and powered/unpowered sites take up to two dogs per booking (on lead in the park, $15 per night pet fee). Booking a glamping tent for one couple plus a cabin for the rest of the group is a set-up we host every weekend.

Book your Marysville glamping stay

Glamping at Marysville Holiday Park starts at $195 per night with availability open year-round. Booking is direct through our system. If you would rather ask a question first, ring Kim on 03 5963 3247 during office hours (Monday to Thursday 9am to 5pm, Friday and Saturday 9am to 6pm, Sunday 9am to 3pm).

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were one of the families that had the misfortune to visit this lovely park the same weekend as y K review and have to say that we felt threatened to the point of having to call management at 11.30 pm. We had your spotlight pointed directly at us and lemons and other projectiles thrown at our family all because we politely asked for you to turn your music down. When the manager come over you became threatening and aggressive towards her to the point the police were called. She advised you to call it a night and go to bed and leave the park in the morning as you were clearly drunk. You continued to be abusive towards us and other guests while packing up and driving out of the park intoxicated.  Once the police had arrived you had parked up out the front of the park and gone to bed thankfully. Your account does not in anyway reflect the events and how threatened we felt but appreciate the manager quickly responding to our late night call so we could enjoy the rest of our stay.

The weather was beautiful, and the warm, cozy atmosphere inside made our stay even more relaxing. Everything was well maintained, and we truly enjoyed every moment. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Bangalore. We would definitely love to stay here again! 😊

We stayed at Marysville Holiday Park with our family last Saturday and Sunday, and we had a wonderful time. The park was clean, peaceful, and surrounded by beautiful nature. It was the perfect place to relax and spend quality time together. The facilities were well maintained, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. Our children really enjoyed the stay, and we made some lovely family memories. We would definitely love to visit again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing family getaway.
