New owners...what a difference a month makes!

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 23 Apr 2019via mobile
Been on a permanent site for few years but always felt the place was well below what it could be.
New owners greet you with a smile and go out of their way to be helpful and friendly.
In less than a month it is clear to see the place is refreshed from the barista cafe in the reception area, to the fresh paint and mats in the showers, to new appliances in the kitchen.
These guys have got a great attitude to customer service and ideas for the future. Looking forward to returning to see what happens next.
A beautiful spot for a relaxing weekend with the huge bonus that the dog is welcome.
Well done guys!

We stayed over Easter in our caravan. We're regular campers there and were delighted to meet the new owners who give a wonderful friendly welcome, and are genuinely happy to help. New coffee shop very popular, open all day. Looking forward to our next trip.

Great place under new management, super friendly hosts and great coffee! Would recommend to family's as kid friendly and nice location.
A little gem in heartland west coast.
Reasonable price and long showers with heaps off pressure.
Some nice walks close by and awesome fishing on lake Brunner.

So pleased we decided to give this place another go... stayed there a couple of years ago and can only say it was average...
The place has new owners now and what they are doing to place is amazing!
Apart from the beautiful views, the weather, the fishing and other activities available the camping ground has been given a face-lift and is looking so fresh. The cabin we stayed in was clean and had comfortable beds.
The hubby loved the fishing, the kids were kept busy, plenty of time for me to relax.
Thank for making us feel welcome guys
All the best 😁
