Discovery Parks - Coffin Bay

We had a lovely stay on an unpowered site with water views. The staff were so friendly and helpful and gave us lots of local knowledge when we arrived. The local emus and kangaroos are an added bounds and had some of the tastiest local oysters. Great park, with clean facilities. Would definitely stay again.

Really loved this park. Nice bush setting with large spacious sites and good amenities. Loads of emus wandering around. Don’t stress about older reviews that complain about unlevel ground. We had a nice flat site and the park has done work to resolve this. Perfect location for the beautiful walk around the shores of Coffin Bay. Very close to township facilities and short drive to the spectacular Long Beach and Coffin Bay National Park.

Excellent clamping tents - close to all amenities. Spotless room with everything you could ask for. Also a short walk to Oyster HQ and the Yacht Club Spent two nights there, will return again. We also walked along the Oyster Walk from end to end

As a lot of other reviews, the problems are with the sites. Unlevel / uneven is an understatement. I've read they are waiting for the quiet period to address the problem, we stayed in the quiet period, no activity. The rest of the park deserves 4 stars. Amenities are top notch and beyond clean. No need to return

We’ve stayed before in these safari/glamping tents both at other Discovery Parks and various other parks/independent accommodation providers and let’s be honest, there is never much variance in the interiors. The kitchenettes and bathrooms are always neat and tidy and very pleasantly appointed and you get a comfy bed and just a sufficient number of basic kitchen items. Maybe a couple of bottles of water would be nice? So all okay and we’ve come to understand the prescribed formula for ‘luxury safari texts’ in such settings. Since they really ‘do the trick’ if you aren’t spending much time in your accommodation we are very happy to keep booking them!! Absolutely no complaints about the comfort. We’re just a little surprised Discovery Parks Coffin Bay have only put two of these tents in. We’d have thought there be a demand for more and it seems there is probably enough space for a few more in the park. Note there isn’t any sea glimpse, but we knew that. The park is otherwise PERFECTLY conveniently located, unlike if you’d chosen to book a motel room at the pub - you’d have been in the back blocks!!! This park is in such an easy central spot. What impressed us most was the pricing. $145 per night. Bargain. Pls don’t change!!! Maybe a set of spare towels would be good since the tents aren’t serviced and if they want to be a bit more true to the connotation of ‘glamping’ then perhaps a basic coffee pod machine could be out in - even if they note on the confirmation emails that guests must bring their own pods. That’s no issue! We always carry them with us these days as if you are staying in places with a machine they only ever seem to supply about two pods!! Thanks for a great cost effective stay - rare these days!!

Well Discovery Parks … what a let down … Coffin Bay does not stand up to your normal standard. I find it incredulous that a caravan park has sites that are so uneven, steep and on a slope without any mitigation to make them user friendly/safe. Try a visit to Little Islands at Streaky Bay to see how to set up on a slope … they have it 100% spot on. We spent 4 nights here and had a site that we could not get close to level … not close enough for comfort or safety and really extended our jockey lift beyond maximum. We had site 19 … all the other travellers around us had issues like digging holes in the dirt so they could lower their support legs as their hitches are almost touching the ground … not able to get sites level, pot holes and one after being moved 3 times was asked to move a 4th time just left. There is no site management with visitors entering unchecked … when we asked which site a car belonged to that was blocking a road … the car was not on their list … great security.
