Accommodation close to Jebbs Pool:
The nearest accommodation to Jebbs Pool is the Cumberland River Holiday Park, which is located directly at the start of the 1 km walk to the pool.
Even if you are not staying at the holiday park, you will need to walk alongside and through the holiday park to reach the start of the walk to the pool.
The holiday park is quite picturesque, with the clear and shallow pebbled Cumberland River running beside the park,
and imposing mountains and rocky cliffs overhead enclosing the Cumberland River valley. You can book camping or cabins via the
holiday park directly, with the possibility of cheaper rates for cabins through a
re-seller.

Where I stayed
When visiting Jebbs Pool, I travelled here on a day trip from Melbourne, so did not end up staying overnight here.
It is roughly a 2 hr 15 minute drive to the holiday park, then a 1 km walk to the pool.
