Cabin accommodation was a little bit tired. Overall quite clean on arrival however floors and carpets felt a bit sticky. I guess it depends what you’re looking for, but for what we paid for our two night stay it was a bit disappointing.

6/10 Good

Maybe because we had a dog friendly cabin that made it not as nice, being dog friendly was really good, but the cabin had a lot to be desired, very small, cramped, tv remote didn't work well, the plug for kettle was behind the cooker and hard to reach and the vinyl couch was terrible. First time in a dog friendly caravan park so I can't compare but did think it would have been a bit nicer and possibly can with a little updating, the grounds were fine as the staff were nice and enjoyed our little deck for people watching.

The reception wasnt open early or late enough. Every time i needed to speak to someone it was closed. We wake up at 5am so waiting till 9am on a sunday is a long time. Same applies in the evening. Reception should be open from 7am till 7pm. Park was awesome aside from that.

Beautiful family holiday

One of the best stays and family holidays. They catered for our little furry friend too, which he was super excited not to be left behind. Cabin was pretty clean and reasonable standard. Plenty for the kids to do and a great pool. Definitely will stay here again in the near future. Thanks smugglers cove for a great holiday.

Great park for kids and to take your pets, cabins are a bit old, need updating, they dont like you having family over unless they pay $7 per person, which isnt good as we went to our son at the big 4 tuncuury and we never had to pay to go in the park

A Great little sightseeing escape

We loved the physical location, right by the river, great price for 5 adults in a 2 bedroom cabin. Had everything we needed. A bit dated in décor and small but great facilities and everything we needed to cook and sleep and relax

10/10 Exceptional

We found this park at the last minute and feel very lucky we did. It was so great for the kids - the pool area was lovely and the park in general was very family orientated with movie nights, train rides etc. The cabins are slightly older than other parks but are clean and have everything you need. We also found the security of the park refreshing. We would stay here again.
