Short but sweet
I wish we stayed longer, but we were driving from Sydney to the Gold Coast so just needed a place for the night. Our daughter 1yo loved the water park! The staff were super friendly and left the water on a little longer than closing as we got there late. They also turned it on early so we’re could enjoy it before we left. Everything was clean and the cabin was perfect for our little family. Would highly recommend & will be back!

Friendly staff & a good location. Cabin was clean but needs a bit of love.It had caked on spills between stove & bench, mould along shower door seal, fungus growing on kitchen window & uplifting floor coverings. The front wooden steps need repair before they break under strain.

The reception to this park was a little confusing to find. However the overall stay was excellent. Cabin was fantastic and had plenty of room. The bathroom was designed for wheelchair access. The park is right near a river which can be accessed for fishing , kayaking etc. The park has its own cafe which was very convenient.

We were so pleased with the cabin (2 bedroom standard) it had everything you could need. The space was so clean, comfortable and in a great location to all the parks amenities. Staff were super friendly and welcoming. It really does have something from everyone, the playground and bike track were absolutely phenomenal and a hit for my kids (2 and 3 years) Our doggo absolutely loved the off leash area, it was huge and a great space for her to let off some energy. Our only negative was we went in winter so couldn’t enjoy the beautiful pool or splash park and we definitely didn’t stay long enough. We honestly can’t wait to come back- thank you so much for having us.

Nice and quiet place to relax and the staff is friendly. The river view was amazing but the cabin had a few issues, staff was quick to address it though. Overall a positive experience, would recommend this place.

We liked the fact that you could go down to the river and have a fish. It was also convenient that there was an excellent cafe on site as well. The cabin was generously sized, modern and fresh. Pretty much had everything you needed for cooking, a BBQ nearby, and a big enough fridge to fit all the essentials in.
