The amenities could be improved, particularly when it comes to cleanliness. At first glance the cabin appears “clean,” but it quickly becomes clear that the standard may rely heavily on guests tidying up before departure, with staff mainly replenishing linens and toiletries. The overall space feels a bit tired and doesn’t smell fresh, which could be easily addressed with more thorough cleaning. The floors were dusty, corners had built-up crumbs, and the shower had some grime. I’d recommend bringing your own cleaning supplies and giving the place a quick clean so you’re not dealing with leftover dirt from previous guests.

I stayed in cabin no.6 on friday and saturday night which cost $340. For about the same price I could have stayed in a neighboring motel where my fellow worker could have access for his vehicle on both nights. I am not in the habit of doing this but I took photos of what I got for my $340. Both the ceiling fan and exhaust fan in bathroom had dust adhereing to them as they had not been dusted for a while. Dust compacted into corners of rooms and on "picture rails" Paint chips and flaking paint off cupboards, water damage to base of bath door. ALL taps in bathroom leak. (unless Hercules turns them off) I have recently stayed at your caravan section and was very happy with our stay but I will not be recommending the cabins. I consider all these deficiencies are management issues. As I was asked by your organisation to submit a review I raise these issues as a courtesy rather than complaint. You can do better

We booked a superior Spa villa with jetted spa. NO spa bath. Upon enquiry I was told units have been redone. This is false advertising. Wanted to blame Expedia but pre registration info from them still showed the spa bath. I would not have paid that daily rate if I had known I was not getting what was advertised. Very disappointed!

I liked the cabin we were in. The place where it was situated and the water was close to go fishing a beautiful place to be. I would recommend it to anyone. It’s even close to a supermarket. We will certainly be back. The children had plenty to occupy themselves as well and they enjoyed every minute of it

Pro’s: easy after hour key pick up and drop off, lovely water view from cabin Cons: the cabin had a bad smell when we arrived, the double bed was not made when we got there - the clean sheets were on the dining table and the pillows/doona on the floor and shoved into the cupboard so we had to make the bed ourselves which we’ve never had to do at a holiday park, someone else’s hairs all over the bathroom walls, when entering the boom gate the keypad is so low you have to get out of the car to enter the number. Overall we couldn’t wait to get back home after this stay
