Great for kids with amazing waterpark and free kayak and buggie hire. Great for the boat with multiple ramps on site. Cabins were nice and clean and well portioned. Parking is never a problem. Plenty of space to even wash my boat after use. Really happy with this place.

Its very laid back, people were friendly. Just more needed for the kids and more sitting areas along the river. It was relaxing and quiet. But you need to have more bath towels supplued for a family of 5 for 3 days.

The cabins in the park were very spacious and well appointed. The park had alot of construction going on but it was not in the way of enjoying the park.

We enjoyed our stay at Discovery Parks Forster with our one year old. The pool was nice and big and the splash park was a very nice feature that hopefully our child can enjoy when he is a bit older if we return. The location was beautiful, on the river and our cabin had a view of the river without being advertised or charged for this. The park is about a ten minute drive out of Forster which didn’t bother us and we would stay again if staying in the area in the future.
