The Cove Jervis Bay

The Cove Jervis Bay is a beachfront lodging and events property tucked into forest inside Booderee National Park. It is designed for overnight stays—13 cabins, a seven-bedroom group house that sleeps up to 23, and furnished bell tents—rather than a casual day trip. Guests have direct beach access, but public access for people without a booking is not established; arrange a stay and check before planning to use the shore. The final 13 km follows unsealed Ellmoos Road from the park entrance.

Cabins and the group house are self-contained, while glamping tents share a camp kitchen and bathrooms. Guests can use kayaks and paddleboards, with a playground, barbecue pavilion and pizza ovens on the grounds. Kangaroos may move through the forested property, with parrots in the trees; enjoy them from a respectful distance, and do not plan around a sighting.

This is a self-catering stay: the cabins and group house have kitchens, and the tents share a camp kitchen. There is a small shop and coffee cart, but no confirmed schedule or menu to plan around; the nearest other shops are a 25-minute drive away, so bring the food you expect to need. Parking is limited to one space per cabin, so arrange extra vehicles with the property. A Booderee vehicle pass is required to enter the park.
