Booked one night in a cabin for a staycation, pleasantly surprised by the ambience. Very clean & tidy, the cabin was all that I wanted & plenty big enough. The pool was lovely & the fact there was live entertainment made the experience even better. I found the cocktails a bit expensive but it didn’t stop me from trying them! Didn’t have food while I was there but the special that night was Pizza & Pasta for $20, which I don’t think you could have found cheaper anywhere else. Would highly recommend as a place to stay.

Rooms clean however maintenance needed doing. Not a park for family there is only pools and a jumping pillow which was closed more than open, they say due to rain even when stopped 5 hours prior. Not even a playground for kids. First tine i have ever been to a caravan park that does not have a play ground. Absolutely nothing for kids bar swimming. Food at poolside restaurannt very ordinary. Sorry but wont be staying there again.

Units are compact but have everything. Park is great if you have kids, and are pet friendly which is great. They have a dog friendly area but the mosquitoes were really bad. Bar and meals available which is a bonus if you dont feel like driving.

Cabin was over in the area where there’s little to no grass, just dirt. The reticulation was turned on in the arvo as I was sitting outside at my table having a beer. Within ten minutes my cement area was covered in water which turned the dust to kinda nearly mud. My cabin was small but extremely clean and had everything I needed for a two night stay. Big tv. Comfy bed. Microwave and fridge. Cutlery and crockery. Good pool area. Has its own tavern on site. Good location for me, as I was working nearby. It’s about 20 mins drive from the city. Overall not bad.

I managed to get a cabin here during peak season and it was comfortable enough with clean sheets, aircon, power, and a fridge and microwave. The shared amenities block was close enough and cleaner than expected. There was always free toilets and showers at the times I went. Lots of caravans and campers around which is cool to walk and look at.

The room was fine but our work group were mainly there for drinks and food. The bar/service staff were nice, but twice I had to enquire about about cocktails I'd ordered after waiting 10 minutes and they somehow seemed to have been forgotten. They also asked me twice if I had ordered random food like chips and wedges as if they had no idea who it was actually for. It was still a great time and all was nice so four stars. I also didn't accept any of the unknown food orders. 😆
