Room to move, lots of space in our comfy cabin. Only complaint was that the TV promised much but only free-to-air channels were available. Great that the swimming pool was heated, but only to 24 degrees. Too cool for us temperate-landers!

Great facilities
Chose to stay here due to its proximity to family I was visiting & it was well prices, especially for a 2 bedroom cabin. Check in was very efficicient & the cabin was very clean.l & welcoming. Queen bed was very comfortable & only minor negative was the smallish bathroom, although the shower was quite spacious. Park facilities are great for kids, with waterslide, pool, jumping pillow & trikes, somewhere i would bring my grandson to. Walking distance to local club for a great feed.

Good fun
The park was definitely family friendly. We took our 3 grandchildren for their first holiday park experience. The water park was the biggest draw for them. Some of the other amenities could do with a bit of an update, like the recreation room. An told football game with broken pieces and a table tennis table and a tv in the corner. The cabin we had was clean and very comfortable, with everything we needed. Overall we enjoyed it

Check in was delayed by over 30 mins. When asked if we could check out 30 mins later, we were refused. When asked why that wasn’t acceptable, we were told “things happen” Property had minimal utensils for using the kitchen. Not as clean as desired. Handy man was extremely unpleasant and rude.

G’day Gerard, thanks for staying with us at Discovery Parks - Dubbo and taking 5 to leave your feedback. We're sorry your check in was delayed. As we sent in out SMS the day of your check in, we were suffering from severe staff shortages and could not guarantee a 2pm check in. If we don't have the staff due to their inability to work, we do struggle on some days. We hope to welcome you back again soon. Kind Regards, the Discovery Parks - Dubbo team.

We have the best stay fir our children and wife , one thing they need to fix is the little water slide is to close to the concrete wall and a couple of children hit their heads against it , including mine . Needs a rubber protection put against the concrete wall. Apart from that would recommend to anyone , had a great time . I did tell the head in the office about the concrete wall . She said she was going to bring it up with management, I hope she does . But a great time had by all . My daughter has a bruising and a cut on her eye with the concrete but she will be ok, I’m hoping management take this on board and fix . As it is an easy fix if they follow through. Great place

When we arrived, I noticed hair on the vanity sink from somebody shaving my one and a half year, old daughter was crawling on the floor the clothes went black from dirt on the carbon floor. Also her feet knees palms also dirty. My oldest daughter went to jump in the bank. Pull the doona back and the sheets and hair crumbs and it and have photos to prove my partner went to reception the next morning as no one would not answer any phones at night they did send cleaners in which renewed sheets and towels we think they mopped the floor but they’re was still hair on the sinks etc

It's a holiday park so you have a mix of campers, caravans and people renting units. The pool area is nowhere near big enough when a large number of guests use it. The pool rules are also not enforced so if the others staying aren't helpful they'll be running, bombing and brining food/glass into the pool area. Also if you stay more than one night, if you want replacement bath towels it is $10. On our first stay pool towels were available, this time they werent. Reception is only open between something like 8:30am and 5:30pm. Good luck getting any staff at all outside those hours.

G’day John, thanks for staying with us at Discovery Parks - Dubbo and taking the time to provide us with your review. We’re sorry to read some of our other guests around the pool behaved inappropriately during your stay with us. We do endeavour to police as best we can during the pools opening hours. In future, if there are any troubles whatsoever, please give us a call on the afterhours number provided on the reception door. We do hope to welcome you back again.
