We stayed at ensuite 2E, large area to park car, tent , trailer plus a bit of room left.Next door resident Kim was so kind and friendly, making us feel welcome. All other residents were also nice. Place is quiet except when the planes pass by which didnt bother us at all. Really clean and homely. We have really enjoyed our stay there, and would recommend highly.

Highly recommended avoiding this place. We stayed during the border closures with Qld and were forced to pay upfront for a week, despite requesting to pay daily due to the unknown volatility of the border situation. We where lucky enough to get an immediate border pass after 4 days of staying so we had to leave and cross the border immediately and then enter hotel quarantine. On requesting a refund for the 3 additional days we did not stay, due to the extreme extenuating circumstances, the manager refused. The park was half empty so our last minute checkout was in no way effecting their ability
