About Lake Glenbawn Holiday & Caravan Park

Lake Glenbawn Holiday Park & Caravan Park offers more than just cabins and campsites. Nestled in a picturesque pocket of New South Wales, just a short drive from Scone, you’ll discover a delightful surprise: kangaroos (and plenty of them), adding a touch of wildlife charm to your stay. Combine that with a roaring campfire and the most tranquil of views out over Lake Glenbawn itself (check the park map to see what we mean), and you’ve scored yourself a blissful country getaway.

Prime Location

In the Upper Hunter region of country NSW, Lake Glenbawn is around 3 hours from Sydney and just 2 from Newcastle. You’ll find everything you need in nearby Scone, just 14km up the road, including plenty of quaint eateries and boutiques, but we doubt you’ll want to leave your waterside retreat once you arrive – it’s that beautiful.

Diverse Accommodation Options

When it comes to your Lake Glenbawn accommodation, you’ve got a tough decision on your hands. You can either stay in our cosy cabins, some boasting one-in-a-million views over Lake Glenbawn, or BYO caravan, RV, or tent, and make yourself at home.

lf at home on one of our powered or non-powered sites. Then, enjoy the fun of a true-blue adventure camping in Lake Glenbawn. Feel at home near park facilities or explore the vast outdoors to discover your own secluded slice of paradise.

Activities and Attractions

Reflections Lake Glenbawn may feel a world away from the daily grind, but you certainly won’t rough it at our well-equipped park. There’s a playground for the kids, clean laundry facilities, a BBQ area, swimming pool, tennis courts, fire pit, and a fuel station and kiosk, so you can fill up whatever’s running low – your boat, tank or your bellies. And of course, it’s not a lakeside getaway without your furry friends, so bring your doggie pals for the day trip or holiday of their dreams.

Explore the Surrounding Area

If you’re up for a day trip or the type to linger longer, your Glenbawn story is your call. A sit and relax type of holidayer? Then welcome to nature’s paradise. But if adventure and exploration is more your cup of tea, then there’s something for everyone at our simple, yet stunning waterfront Lake Glenbawn accommodation. Start with a scroll through our things to do list for inspo, or follow our ‘How to spend a day holidaying at Lake Glenbawn’ guide. On the water, there’s swimming, water-skiing, jet-skiing and fishing in spades. If hiking is more your thing, we’ve got hiking trails for days and the Scone Golf Club is only up the road for a round or five (who’s counting?) It’s a relaxing picturesque oasis filled with roaming kangaroos and plenty of fish too – word is, even a simple kernel of corn is known to catch a big one around here.
