Marybrook is a rural locality of the City of Busselton in the South West region of Western Australia, located on Geographe Bay.[2][3]

The City of Busselton and the locality of Marybrook are located on the traditional land of the Wardandi (also spelled Wadandi) people,[4][5] of the Noongar nation.[6]

Marybrook was established as a Group Settlement with the group number 144.[7]

The locality is home to the heritage-listed Marybrook farmhouse, a cottage dating back to the 1870s. It is thought to have been constructed for John Molloy, who died in 1867.[8]
