We had a great stay, we weren't sure if there was a recycling or compost system. This should be mandatory these days, it's not hard to arrange, and necessary, especially for somewhere so beautiful!

Pro’s: easy after hour key pick up and drop off, lovely water view from cabin
Cons: the cabin had a bad smell when we arrived, the double bed was not made when we got there - the clean sheets were on the dining table and the pillows/doona on the floor and shoved into the cupboard so we had to make the bed ourselves which we’ve never had to do at a holiday park, someone else’s hairs all over the bathroom walls, when entering the boom gate the keypad is so low you have to get out of the car to enter the number. Overall we couldn’t wait to get back home after this stay

The cabin was good. Clean, decent size and comfortable for a week or so. Everything you need is included. Facilities of the park are ok. No complaints.

The location was lovely and the pool was beautiful (unfortunately it was closed for maintenance on the day of our arrival). The lady who checked us in was friendly. The room itself was average at best. The fittings are in dire need of repair/replacement. Things like missing light globes, ants coming in through the wall, numerous small spiders on the ceiling and an exhaust fan in the bathroom which must have been at least thirty years old and didn’t appear to have been cleaned in that time were all disappointing. Hot water was limited, there were no regular channels on the TV and wifi was hit and miss. Our room was supposedly ‘superior’ but at $950 for two nights stay and in a room we really didn’t feel comfortable in at all, I don’t think represented good value at all. For people who are only in their room to shower and sleep, it might be OK but we were very glad to get home.

There were cockroaches in the bathrooms, spiders throughout the cabin. Dead insects falling from the light fittings onto the bedding. Considering the price per night I would have expected a much more cleaner cabin and facilities. Would not stay here again.

Nice neat little cabins. Beds were clean and comfy. Check in was easy even though we arrived alot later then planned due to traffic.
Walking distance to lake and great little fishing spots. Needs an onsite cafe or restaurant, food options close by are very limited.

Excellent service, location, fishing, camping and an overall beautiful quiet spot to stay. I loved the hospitality and friendly atmosphere the park had to offer. Our unit was a little worn and tired but other than that I had everything I needed. I rate it a 91/2 out of 10. Would most definitely recommend this park and I would stay there again.
