Great Bushland Setting

09 Feb, 2025

Great park in bushland setting. Lots to do and see. Hardworking and helpful managers who went out of their way to ensure our stay was enjoyable.

Relaxed Atmosphere

09 Feb, 2025

Beautiful setting at the base of Mt Remarkable. Large shady gum trees & relaxed atmosphere. Lots of walking & bike trails to enjoy. From the moment we arrived, I was greeted with a big friendly smile & chat with the owner on check in.

Clean updated amenities.

Short walking distance to Jacka Brewing for wood fired pizza & drinks, Museum & 2 Pubs. Can’t recommend highly enough after spending 6 days here.

Walkability: Close to lots of walking and biking trails if you want some exercise.

Everything else is within a 5 minute walk.

Food and drinks: 2 pubs with quality meals and reasonable cost in Main street.

Cafe for coffee cakes & light food with friendly staff.

Jacka Brewery for wood fired pizza & craft beers & Gin

Perfect Spot

09 Feb, 2025

Great little caravan park ! Perfect spot for me and my partner to stay overnight while we made the most of the Melrose mountainbike trails.

The young lady who served us at reception was extremely accommodating and went above and beyond to ensure we had a great stay and left as happy as possible. Really want to thank her for that ! 😊 🤝

Stunning Park!

09 Feb, 2025

Absolutely stunning park with brand new shower and toilet block which are lovely. Laundry block and clothes line with pegs available.

We stayed on a powered grass site with our camper which was right on the creek and it was just perfect for us. The kids were constantly over at the epic dirt bike jumps and across the road at the basketball court which had a playground right there.

There is a small outdoor kitchen with a hot plate and big BBQ. Everything is well taken care of and they are currently working on 3 massive cabin which will add to their other new ones.

Owners are lovely and so helpful, they lent us a few tools when we needed them!

Couldn’t recommend this park enough and it’s so close to Mt Remarkable and Alligator Gorge.
