Liked:- Close to the inlet, scenic location, lots of grassed areas, boat ramp right next door, Top Tourist discount, dog friendly (deposit required and behavior monitored).
Disliked:- Narrow internal roads - very hard to negotiate as cars and boats were parked along them. Amenity blocks are all at one end of the park so we met several families (both older people and some with children) who, because their sites were up the other end of the park, needed to drive to the toilet block. No shade. Toilet blocks were old and in need of maintenance.
Added Touches:- Bouncy mat for children, fish cleaning table, boat ramp.
