This park is suitable for overnight or stays of a week or more. The amenities while a bit dated are always clean and tidy. The sites are at the back of the Park and there is very little traffic noise.
The main thing that we liked is that the boom gate is always up during the day and only closed at night. This is a great idea as it is nearly impossible to punch in gate codes when towing a van.
There is a shopping centre nearby and Maccas etc are close by. Recommend this park. Would stay again.

Liked:- This park does not look much from the outside, however when inside is comfortable. A patrolled beach is opposite the park. Although there are a lot of permanents the park is quiet at all times of the day and night.
Disliked:- The site that we were allocated was difficult to get into with a 7.2 metre overall van. We were disappointed that there were easy access sites which were vacant but were allocated probably the most difficult access site. Maybe we should have indicated the size of our van when we booked.
Parking:- Parking for one rig at Reception.
Added Touches:- There is a courtesy bus to and from The Entrance Leagues Club which has reasonably priced meals and refreshments and a great atmosphere.
