Secluded Murray River Retreat with outdoor bath

Set beside the Murray River, Parcoola Retreats is a secluded riverside escape created for slow mornings, long soaks and nights spent under open skies.

This purpose-built retreat brings together a modern tiny home and a lovingly restored stone cottage, offering a rare sense of privacy, space and connection to nature.

Sleeping up to four guests, Parcoola Retreats is ideal for couples, young families, or friends seeking a refined rural stay where the good moments unfold naturally. Parcoola Retreats is designed as a private retreat experience rather than a single dwelling.

The property includes:
• A fully self-contained modern tiny home
• A separate restored stone cottage housing the outdoor claw-foot bathtub and fire pit area
• Expansive decking with river views
• Complete privacy across the entire site

The tiny home features two queen loft bedrooms dressed in French flax linen, a well-appointed bathroom with rain shower and flushing toilet, and a light-filled living space that opens onto the deck.

The retreat is designed across multiple zones, with indoor living, expansive decking and a separate stone cottage, creating a sense of space beyond the footprint of the tiny home itself. Those with lower mobility may find the loft bedrooms and stairs harder to access. One bed is a 'floor bed'.

The stone cottage, just steps away, has been carefully restored to create a one-of-a-kind bathing and relaxation space, adding a sense of ritual and indulgence to your stay.

Outside the retreat:
Large decks invite long meals outdoors and uninterrupted views across the Murray River. As the day fades, gather around the fire pit with supplied firewood, or soak in the claw-foot bathtub housed within the restored stone cottage, a signature feature of the retreat.

The river is an easy 120 metre walk from the retreat. Guests are welcome to take a picnic to the riverbank, enjoy a paddle or simply sit and watch the water pass by.

To help you explore the river, two adult kayaks and life vests are provided for guest use.

Children must be supervised at all times near the river and life jackets are recommended.

Eco-conscious stay:
Parcoola Retreats has been designed with low-impact living in mind. We take care to reduce waste, recycle and reuse wherever possible, ensuring the river and surrounding landscape are respected and protected for the future.
