We recently spent four nights at this "holiday park" and were very disappointed. My husband and I are currently on a month long trip in our caravan and have stayed in some fabulous parks, but we were particularly looking forward to this park as the Moama/Echuca area is so lovely. The park is very, very small and chock full of cabins, which are incredibly close together. The powered site we were given was at the back of the park (our view was a very ugly "service" area filled with garden supplies and other materials). The site was tiny - the smallest I have ever encountered in many years of camping and caravanning. Although there are some grassed sites, ours had astro turf, which I personally don't like (I felt like I was in a caravan showroom rather that a camping park!) but of course this comes down to personal preference. The site was next to a gate, which led to the service area and for three out of the four days we were there the park management zoomed in and out of this gate in a variety of vehicles, sometimes at speeds far greater than the park rules allowed. Which brings me to the park rules: there are many and the camp managers are at pains to let patrons know about them constantly. At times, this statement and restatement of the rules felt unfriendly, almost aggressive. Of course parks must have rules to ensure the safety and enjoyment of all guests, however, this park seems more concerned with imposing arbitrary rules than guest enjoyment. At one point we were aggressively told to put our dog on a leash. (This was yelled at us loudly from a camp manager who had been roaring in and out of the service gate all day.) Our dog was leashed and on our site as per the camp rules. At no time was our dog off leash in the park. We were at pains to follow all park rules while we were there. Therefore, this rudeness was not appreciated. The excessive noise (chainsaws, earthmoving equipment etc) coming from the service area directly adjacent to our site prevented us from enjoying any outdoor time at the park. This noise went all day for three of the four days we were there. Positives were a neat and tidy park, proximity to the river and to the port of Echuca (a longish walk but doable) and the fact that pets are allowed. (Please note that while this park tolerates dogs, it is far from dog friendly. The sites are tiny and there is literally nowhere else in the park dogs are allowed.) The amenities are old, but reasonably clean. I noticed there were very few facilities for kids. The playground is a cubby (tiny) and there's no other equipment other than a basketball hoop. (And the giant chess set - which did look good!) There is a small pool, however. Overall, this park would be fine for an overnight stop, but is not up to the standard that I would expect for a "holiday". There are many better choices in the area.
