Discovery Parks - Geelong - A riverside holiday park with self-contained cabins, outdoor pool, and proximity to the Great Ocean Road

Discovery Parks - Geelong offers 35 air-conditioned, self-contained cabins with full kitchens, private bathrooms, and outdoor seating areas. The Superior 2 Bedroom Cabin, the most popular option, sleeps up to four guests and includes a balcony, spa bath, and fully equipped kitchen. Guests can use the outdoor pool, children's playground, and BBQ facilities, or rent bikes to explore the Barwon River trail. The park is five minutes from Geelong's city center, 15 minutes from world-class beaches, and a short drive from the Great Ocean Road. A continental breakfast is available each morning at Discovery Parks - Geelong, and the on-site snack bar serves quick meals. Reception can assist with tours, including visits to Geelong Adventure Park or Fairy Park.
