Julie, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Everything was excellent but unfortunately we couldn’t enjoy the whole facility over the time we were there as the weather turned nasty and we lost power for the whole night and it was still off when we left at 8-30am so kitchen and bathroom facilities couldn’t be used .
Ian, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We just had a lovely stay for two nights! Kids loved the splash park and pool. Scenery and lake were lovely. Cabins very smart, climate controlled and clean. Had towels, toiletries, kitchen utensils etc. beds comfy enough. Overall a great stay that kids loved and was safe. My eldest is high needs and he loved it.

I was pleasantly surprised with our stay at Discovery Parks Forster. It was our first park stay and the cabins were clean, the facilities were great. The pool was a perfect temperature! Overall we were really happy and would definitely come back!
Jacqui, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We wanted somewhere close to the highway but not the usual “roadside” hotel. Thought we’d try something new and I’m glad we did. The unit smelled so fresh and clean, super spacious with plenty of spare pillows, blankets & towels. Highly recommended

Ariel, 1-night trip

Great place to go with kids. Lots of family friendly activities. A bit overpriced, but the cabins are brand new and spacious. Cafe food is good but slow and very pricey.

Nice and quiet place to relax and the staff is friendly. The river view was amazing but the cabin had a few issues, staff was quick to address it though. Overall a positive experience, would recommend this place.
Manish, 6-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Stayed in the Standard 2 bedroom cabin which suited the 3 of us just fine. Nice newly built cabins with A/C, creature comforts and walking distance to the water park, pool and lake. Only complaints if I had to find them, was the screen door didnt have a locator for the door latch and bathroom door latch didn't line up so it couldn't be locked. Highly recommended and will be back 👍
