Esk Caravan Park & Rail Trail Motel

This was our first trip to Esk and from the moment we arrived we were met with warm smiles and genuine hospitality. The grounds team took the time to stop for a chat and share their local knowledge throughout our stay which helped us explore the area in ways we wouldn't have discovered on our own – there are also some suggested day drives you can pick up from reception which was a great idea. The heated adults-only pool was also a big highlight and completely unexpected. The water temp was perfect and we loved having a quiet space to relax with a book.  The lorikeet feeding was also just outside the pool area – everything was just so convenient. The camp kitchen had a nice social a**osphere, and we used the pizza ovens to cook our fresh pizzas (we cheated and picked ours up from the IGA which was only a minutes’ walk) and the free live music on the Saturday night was another unexpected bonus. This place really is a hidden gem and I can't recommend Esk Caravan Park enough.  We will definitely be returning to this wonderful little oasis.

Love this park, but really disappointed at the rates we paid for the weekend. Usually $60-$65 per night, paid $77, and when I asked why, I was told it was because the park was full. No public holiday, and dearer than when we stayed there after Chris**as 2023. Shouldn't they just have a standard rate? Not sure if we'll stay again.

We have just completed the BVRT on bicycle. Esk was our stop over for our second night and we booked into the Rail Trail Motel in the Esk Caravan park. The amenities were excellent and the heated pool a very welcome sight at the end of a great day of cycling. The motel rooms were clean and comfortable. I would highly recommend Esk Caravan park and am looking forward to revisiting and staying longer in the future.

My husband and I have just spent 5months here in paradise. Cannot fault anything. Staff are excellent all the facilities are so clean. So many positives. We have been coming here from Victoria for 4 years now and hopefully many more enjoyable years to come.

This was our 4th Easter at Esk Caravan Park and it just keeps getting better every year. The entertainment and activities organised for the kids (and big kids) was fantastic! We especially loved the Musical Bingo sessions hosted by the park managers who you can see genuinely love socialising with their guests and ensuring everyone feels like a VIP. The town also had a bit more going on this year which was awesome - having the Coffee Roasters and the Bowls Club open over the long weekend was a bonus! We've already rebooked for next year and can't wait for another Eskcellent Easter. Thanks to the whole team for making this year so memorable and keep up the great work!

We stayed three nights in the Motel portion of the Brisbane Valley Caravan Park. This is quite the Park. Staff were very courteous. The Park is immaculately kept. Our room was spotless. But it was extremely small and quite congested. There was limited hanging space and no drawer space and only one comfortable chair. There was no room service for our entire stay. We paid $185 per night for our stay and at that price, Brisbane Valley Caravan Park is quite overpriced.

My recent Easter weekend at Esk Caravan Park was nothing short of a nigh**are. Despite being a loyal visitor for over 9 years, this year marked a shocking decline in both hospitality and management. Things took a turn for the worse when a groundsman confronted me for allegedly exceeding the 5km/h speed limit on my electric scooter, which I promptly corrected. Little did I know, this was just the beginning of a relentless barrage of harassment from the staff throughout the entire weekend, accusing me of violating rules I was diligently following. I must confess, I didn’t wear a helmet at all, which is breaking the rules. On Easter Day, my frustration reached a boiling point, and I regrettably became verbally aggressive towards the management team after being falsely accused once again of speeding on my scooter, even though I hadn't even ridden it that day. This hostile exchange only exacerbated the already tense situation. In the end, I was unfairly banned from the park, effectively ending nearly a decade of cherished memories. It's disheartening to witness the sharp decline in the quality of service and trea**ent at Esk Caravan Park over the past few years. Save yourself the trouble and find a campground that values its loyal patrons and respects basic human decency.

We went with a group of friends, 7 couples and a single, and booked a variety of accommodation - motel rooms, cabins, glamping, and Rusty (the retro van). All were spotlessly clean, well equipped, and very comfortable. Facilities throughout the park were first-class. We enjoyed our evening meal in the bookable 'grill and chill' area but it was too chill for us oldies to try the pool. We recommend this park highly for a comfortable getaway.

I had never been to Esk so decided to go find out more about it. I was interested to see the BVRT for bike riding. I had always camped on beach side parks so it was different getting out in outback a bit. I had an amazing campsite overlooking a forest which made it very peaceful. The amenities very very modern and camp kitchen was so well fitted out with pizza ovens and BBQs. We had a band play on Saturday night which was great night. Very close to pubs and great coffee and Brisbane valley Roasters. Considering this park is so close to Brisbane I,m sure I be back again.
