Koondrook Glamping Retreat

My partner and I stayed two nights at Koondrook Retreat to celebrate our birthdays. We booked in at incredibly short notice but despite this the owners had our glamourous "tent house" ready and waiting and the next day our hamper as ordered was delivered. This is an incredible place - beautifully designed and crafted with every amenity one needs but set amongst the towering river red gums of Gunbower Island which is literally across Gunbower Creek which the retreat sits on. All residences have direct water views and there's a foot bridge literally next to the retreat that takes you to the island and a range of glorious walks. The Murray River, Gunbower Creek, Gunbower Island, forest, birds, a big, beautiful deck with glorious views: a true retreat. Despite the quiet, it's a quick walk into Koondrook where we had dinner at the hotel and coffees at the Long Paddock Food Store. I would return in a heart beat and can't recommend highly enough.

A couple a nights glamping at Koondrook retreat in January was a perfect way to unwind . The Safari tent is large, well decked out and super comfortable. A total of six tents in the complex which are situated to allow for privacy and each tent enjoys a view. The tiny town has a good walking track with some interesting sculptures, a couple of businesses, general store and a pub . It’s quiet and super relaxing highly recommended.

My wife and I stayed for 3 nights at Koondrook Retreat and wish that we had been able to stay longer. A comfortable king size bed, ensuite bathroom with hot shower, well equipped kitchen (including dishwasher!), reverse cycle aircon, flat screen TV and outdoor deck equipped with BBQ and overlooking the water, combine to make this a five star glamping experience. A great place to unwind. We will definitely be back!
