2br cabin suited our stay, a little older than the one at another local park we stayed at. Kitchenette had 2 hotplates and a microwave but no oven - we used the one oven that was located in the Camp Kitchen. We loved the onsite mini-golf and the Shaws Bay location can't be beat. We would stay here again.

Great facilities & location. Room with bunk beds had no air con or fan, musty smell. Items missing from the kitchen, so not able to fully utilise it for cooking. Clean surfaces but could do with a deep clean.

Staff on check-in was great. The location & park superb. Cabin was very comfortable but the cleanliness did need some work as had to clean up after previous guests (ie stove & kitchen bench tops had food splatter / spills / stains that were definitely from a previous occupant).

Loved the location, walking paths, easy walk to the pub, beach, coffee shops, takeaway. The camp kitchen was great and also the general facilities. Our cabin was fairly clean, only a couple of bugs found but we were missing a clothes airer that all other cabins appeared to have and would have been handy for washing/towels.

Very lovely place to stay right by the water and not far from beach area and the famous lighthouse. Staff were very accommodating and kind we arrived and our cabin was not ready they upgraded our cabin to a delux so we did not have to wait. Well kept park and very close to township also. Perfect stay

It was a serene space. We were in walking distance to north wall and the beach where we saw dolphins and lizards. The kids loved the bouncy pad, games room and the pool! The Waterview Cabin was lovely but the view, spectacular. The reflection of the sunrise on the water and the actual sunset right from our balcony, amazing. The live music from the Shawsy across the water was lovely l, we could just hear it as we read and drew in the lounge, after our relaxing dinner cooked in the barbeque. A great way to spend my birthday weekend!
