1.0/5
Have stayed here twice now and would NEVER stay again.
Both times we got water though our tent site and had to leave early and the owners were very rude and would not refund my fee.
The whole camp has alot of pot holes filled with water and mud every where.
Be Aware of this place if it rains it is like a swamp.
I find the Australian review very misleading.
I have visited the camp a few times when in the area to see if things have changed and believe me they have'nt.
I have some photos and will post them if I can or else I will post them on facebook.
UPDATE
Went back in April to see if any work had been done on the harbour end of the camp and NO still the same, looks like the pot holes have got bigger and boggy all ready, avoid this place if you want to be dry
It is really sad that this camper has had a bad experience at our park. Unfortunately we can not control the weather and of late we have had weather bombs, which are very hard to deal with. We do try our best to maintain the grounds, as best we can. I am sure if you had stayed at any other park with similar weather conditions, they would be just as bad. One local park flooded so badly, to the point of having to evecuate twice, last season. As for refunds our policy has always been, we do not refund due to indifferent weather. Sorry but this is beyond our control. Please give us another go and we will pray for sunshine for you.
