8/10 Good
"Stayed in a motel room this time. It was small but had a great kitchen and good bathroom. Bedroom area was a bit squishy but bed was really comfortable, pillows a bit too plump and I suggest changing to two plump ones and two less plump. Sofa in lounge area was old, low and extremely uncomfortable. Verandah and outdoor furniture was fabulous. Love this park and will be back but maybe a different style of room. Previously we stayed in our campervan and always love the park. Did notice the amenity block has been renovated and it's really fresh and lovely. See you next time. 😃"
