family holiday visit to KI - amazing experience

Lovely staff - thank you Chris and Margaret for helping to keep kids entertained and also help us see koala and baby joey just before our departure. friendly, clean property, and just a unique experience to be able to stay somewhere where your neighbours are koalas in back tree and kangaroos in the garden.

staff had done a great job cleaning the premises and kitchen/cooking items. the unit was all it was advertised as, including plenty of kangaroos/wallabies on the site (including easily finding the resident koalas). great location for proximity to the natural features that were the main reason we visited Kangaroo Island (flinders chase NP, seal bay, raptor domain). reception staff very friendly and helpful

The park was close to all the activities I wanted to do. Staff was friendly and helpful. Everything you needed was here, gas and groceries if you were caught short. Walk around the grounds and there were lots of kangaroos and geese. The cabin was fantastic, modern, clean and cosy.

Great access to Flinders Chase NP

We had a bungalow within this campground. Mostly all new, very clean and well organized. Excellent location near park entrance. No dining options nearby so assume you will cook on-site. Friendly and helpful personnel. Highly recommended for access to Flinders Chase NP.
