The room is neat and tidy, warm water for shower. Quiet at night. Owner is friendly. The only inconvenience is the free WiFi reception is not good. We use our own internet data.

One night away
A one night stay at this park. The cabin was spotless and well appointed - the only thing lacking was milk, coffee and tea which the proprietor apologised for the next morning on departure. Good for couples who want a serene break away - a very peaceful location about a 10 min drive outside Port Fairy.

The caravan park is just the right size in a picturesque setting and is very well maintained. Nice BBQ facilities and children’s playground and pet friendly. The owners make you feel very welcome. It’s a short drive to the city centre but we’ll off the highway so it’s nice and quiet.

Very average,
A very cramped caravan, certainly for the 6 people that it was intended for. It's quite a way out of town so you would need to designate a driver if anyoe wants to have a drink. The wifi didn't work, I reported this and the person in the office said it would be dealt with as soon as possible.

Thanks for taking the time to give us a review. The cabin you booked is a budget cabin and our cheapest, it's designed for those on a low budget. We do have many other cabins that are more spacious. Sorry you waited until check out to tell me that the wifi was not working but thanks for letting me know as it was rectified very quickly. Safe travels and enjoy the rest of your trip.

Relaxing Stay
We recently stayed in a cabin at the park. The cabin was clean and spacious. very well equipped with stove, full fridge and gas cook top. The bed was comfortable with good linen and triple sheeting which is always a plus. The park is outside the town of sport Fairy but an easy cycle or quick car ride into town. There are very good washing machines and dryers which are efficient and not too expensive. The staff were very helpful and the park was kept in good condition and well maintained. great park for families and couples, very safe, clean and relaxing. Definitely recommend for price and cleanliness.
