“Amazing laid back vibe with cool cabin accomodation!”
Been staying here for 10 years (ex Jan 2025) We love the shady and laid back vibe! The pool, games room and bbq areas are all well kept! We spotted possums at night with our torch which was very cool. Hand fed a Kookaburra and enjoyed hearing all the birds day in and day out! The cabin is perfectly air condition and well appointed We love coming here for our yearly family holiday! Cant wait to be back next Jan!!!

Great location. Quiet and secluded for such a big place, we felt like the only ones there most of the time. Great facilities and being right by the sand dunes was the best
