Yes. Bring your own food to cook on the BBQ, 2 burner cooktop, or fire pit. A small fridge/freezer has been provided. There are indoor and outdoor dining settings.

We supply salt, pepper, olive oil, tea/coffee/ UHT milk/sugar/biscuits, and drinking water to get you started. In addition, we can supply an esky if requested by guests more than a day prior to arrival. 

We recommend shopping locally in our nearby townships of Hawks Nest and Tea Gardens. Less than a 10-minute drive, both have supermarkets, bakeries, and other food outlets with a great range of products.

The Tea Gardens Fishermen’s Co-op is not to be missed for fresh seasonal seafood. If you feel like a break from cooking, nearby dining options abound from waterfront restaurants, cafes, and takeaways to pubs and clubs. Go to Experiences: The Food to see more.

Our three beautiful glamping tents can be rented out individually, or together so that your group has the private glamping area for exclusive use. The area is ideal for groups of families and friends to connect in nature.

A group booking can be made to include all three glamping tents (14ppl). Further, the tiny houses can also be added to this group booking (4ppl) with the tiny houses residing in the nearby bushland setting in the wider campground. Please call our friendly staff on 0409 836 828 who can assist you in making a booking to suit your group’s requirements.

Please note, our tents cannot be used by persons exceeding the guest capacity for each tent. The tents are off-grid with solar power and composting toilets and cannot support more than the specified guests.

Additional tents, caravans, or camper vans are not permitted in the Glamping precinct.

Parties are prohibited.

Please note the noise curfew of 10pm for the entire campground as noise travels in the bush.

Anyone visiting a glamping guest for the day from outside the campground must check-in at the office to complete Covid-19 documentation and obtain a boom-gate pass.

Children aged nine years and older are most welcome. The glamping tents are not suitable for younger children due to the layout of the tents, beds, and the proximity to the river. We want you to take this time to relax…

We’re located riverside with our own sandy beach and stunning ocean beaches a short drive away. So swimmers, suncream and hat are a must.

Pack your walking shoes with the National Park and other great walks close-by.

Remember you are holidaying in nature so don’t forget to pack something warm particularly for nights, regardless of the season.

Your camera to snap the beauty of nature (and your co-adventurer/s)

Binoculars for wildlife and bird spotting.  

We provide personal insect repellent and mosquito coils. But if you have a preference for repellent, please bring your own.

Remember: Don’t feed or approach wildlife or leave food out. We are holidaying in their habitat. 

Yes, fires are permitted in the fire pit provided, and we provide a bag of firewood for each stay. More firewood bags are available to purchase at reception.

NOTE: Fires can only be lit in accordance with local fire regulations. If in doubt, ask our staff or check the RFS website for fire bans. Fires cannot be lit when windy due to the increased risks. It is also your responsibility to extinguish a fire before leaving it.

Myall River Glamping area has a sandy access point.

The Myall River is often the colour of dark tea due to the tea tree oils dropped in upstream. This is reputed to be good for skin and hair care.

When taking a dip, guests are cautioned to consider the current and tides and their own swimming ability.

We are an off-grid campground and our tents are powered by the sun and gas bottles.

We have no WIFI.

USB charging ports are supplied in the tinies for mobile phone charging (as we suspect you’ll want to take a pic or two).  

Each tent has a power board designed to enable personal COMPUTERS ONLY to be charged. Unfortunately, if other appliances are connected to this powerboard (such as hairdryers/hair straighteners) a breaker will be tripped cutting power to the whole tent. 

Our tents are a great place to disconnect from everyday devices so connect with nature instead.

Our tents have double-layer, all weather canvas insulation and are water-tight. They are designed for guests to be as comfortable as possible in all weather conditions. Our decks are undercover with BBQ and furniture so you can still enjoy being outdoors.

Summer

We take advantage of the wind, by raising and lowering tent flaps to generate air flow. We also provide low voltage fans. All important – the river is only footsteps away.

Winter

Each tent has blankets, rugs and hot water bottles (heaters to come). The outdoor fire pit is a favourite winter activity.

If you are particularly sensitive to hot or cold weather, please book according to the seasons. We do not provide refunds due to adverse or inclement weather or other circumstances beyond our control.

If the sounds of the bush and river aren’t enough, you are welcome to bring your own small portable music device. Please always consider others and remember the noise curfew for the entire campground is 10pm.

As part of our operating permit, pets are not permitted. If you are traveling with a pet, please contact the office on 0409 836 828 for a list of local pet minding services.

Yes – the local area is packed with activities from bushwalking and 4WDing to relaxing on internationally acclaimed beaches. Go to Experiences to see more or visit Barrington Coast to see what’s on in the region.
