I stayed here in an RV at a powered site for a night, and then stayed in a cottage for a night. This place is a clean, quiet oasis not far from central Cairns. There is a great pool and BBQ area which we used. The water was fantastic and clean with a lush green lawn to lay around on,... More

We stayed for 4 nights, The Staff were nice and friendly. We stayed in a 2 brm cottage, it was nice and clean, but it was quite small for 2 adults and 3 children. The lounge/kitchen wasn't very big but there is a little courtyard where we spent most of our time. But all in all we had a nice... More

paid $700 for the week. We were terribly dissapointed by the state of this Villa. This is a family owned and run caravan park / cabins. The man and woman at the front desk very sour mannerism.Gives a sense of unfriendliness. Cabin was very small for the $100/ night tariff. Water pressure in the shower was a joke. ( I... More

Stayed one night in a 2br Villa no.5 that was filthy and in bad need of maintenance. As it was late on our arrival and the office soon closed we put up with it and complained the next morning. The manager (Philip) after initially apologising became increasingly mad as we listed of the things that needed attending to the cabin.... More

We were looking for a park near Cairns but not it the touristy rat race and found Lake Placid. It is not far from Cairns (about 20 mins or so) and an ideal base for seeing the area. The manager was very helpful to us and we only contacted them on the day and needed 3 to 4 sites. He... More

Traveling from California we found this place via the Internet with reasonably priced cabins and decided to try it- not knowing what to expect we only reserved it for 2 nights. The small 2 room cabin had a tiny kitchen area, bathrooms/showers in a separate building nearby. It was so perfect we ended up renting it for 10 days- all... More

We booked in to stay a week. On booking in we told them we had 2 dogs. No problem they said. We then asked about doing tours in the area and were recommended a few to try, including trips to the Barrier Reef. After paying for a week on a powered site we were given an information sheet and told... More

Stayed here for 4 nights in June with my toddler in a 2 bedroom cabin. Quiet, picturesque location, all I heard was the river outside my cabin, bliss after busy Cairns. The cabin is advertised 2 bedrooms but the second bedroom was only a pull across curtain. It's was small, modern and clean with all the necessities. The pool area... More
