We stayed in a Wallaby cabin towards the back of the park. These cabins surrounded a small green area, where was a covered two gas bbq cooking area. The local kangaroos and wallabies and bush turkeys wandered the area at sunrise and sunset. The cabin itself had a bunk bed and a single bed and a double bed. Nice big fridge for longer stays, a stove and eating area inside and also on the balcony. It was also thankfully air conditioned as it was quite hot. We were walking distance to the beach. The holiday park has a nice deep cool pool with a spa and children's pool as well. There was a tennis court for use. A highlight was the daily feeding of the lorikeets - the whole family loved it. It is also a very short drive to Red Rock and around 30mins down to Coffs Harbour and you had all the other stops along the way as well. The grounds were immaculate. The owners had our information for check in ready outside their office hours and were helpful during our stay.

Room Tip:Â The Wallaby villas are the furtherest back away from the pool area. Nice and quiet.

We stayed here as a stop on a road trip with two kids. What a great find! We arrived after 1 pm and picked our keys up and had a small cabin with bunk beds. We loved the little kitchen which we used for breakfast and dinner. They even provided tea, coffee and biscuits.
We loved the area it is in, we saw Wallabies and enjoyed the vast beach right behind the site. Was amazing. We used the pool and it was perfect for our kids.
Communication quick and helpful with this establishment- remember it’s a campsite with all different styles from 2 bedroom cabins to caravans. We enjoyed it for what it was.

Found this place on the internet. Weekend stay in a two bedroom cabin called Wallaby. Everything you need. Clean and tidy inside. A little old in these cabins the wardrobe door was broken but still good. Location is fantastic. Very close to the beach. Perfect for families and a quite getaway. The staff couldn’t be more friendly and helpful. Woolworths is just down the road and the Seaview hotel has a great atmosphere and menu. Thank you for a great stay.

Lets start with the good things - the staff are amazing and went out of there way to do everything for us. We checked into Cabin Bilby 4 but couldn't open the glass door and then found out from the caretaker that there was a key broken off in the lock, it we went out we could not lock the glass door - then tv controller missing. The cabins were very clean but in poor condition.
We were then moved to Bilby cabin 1 which again was clean but in really poor condition - hard to put the timber blinds down with the blinds in the main bedroom was broken and the fan making high level of noise which keep us awake and also couldn't use the pillow as the inside stuffing of the pillows was coming out onto the bed.
If you are considering this park i would pay the additional money and get into the new cabins.

Stayed for two nights and enjoyed ourselves. The "Villa" had a double bedroom and a bunkroom and we found both good. The shower was ok, but the door needs some attention. This place is built in nature just a short walk to the beach and the wildlife visits you (birds and wallabies) Some people have retired there. Good laundry facilities but take your own pegs.

Thank you for an enjoyable stay. The staff were friendly, the room was clean, bed was comfortable and the location was amazing! It’s out of the way but right on the beach. We loved just switching off and enjoying family time at the beach and pool. We will definitely be back.

I work in Tourism and travel frequently. This place is a gem. Great value for money, the grounds are immaculate, and even though we stayed in the older style cabin (Wallaby). It was spotless. The area is beautiful and full of nature including Kangaroos and Lorikeets. So close to the attractions of Coff's too. We will be back.

We stayed for 2 weeks over the Christmas break. The amenities and the grounds are very clean and tidy. We had a caravan en suite site, it was great had storage room in the en suite for all your little extras. The park was busy with people coming and going but it was still nice and quite,great family park for young children, the wild life is wonderful and only a 5 min stroll to the beach, the only down side was that at night we could hear the trucks on the highway, and could not get any internet at the park which was disappointing. A 20min drive to Coffs

We have just spent 11 nights at this beautiful park. The amenities are nice and very clean. The staff is very friendly and helpful. Best of all is the wildlife. We had kanguroos and lorikeets in front of our door each day. To top things off, we made some new friends with a couple whe chose to make the resort their home. A great place to stay, not far from Coffs. We will certainly be back again. Sue M.

We spent 10 nights here in a cabin. Cabin was compact but adequate for our needs. It was spotless. The road noise from the Pacific highway was a pain and hopefully the managers would consider moving the 3 cabins to elsewhere in the park. The library books in the laundry were appreciated on the few wet days we had. I understand that the current managers have just taken over running the place. Great to see a young couple having a go. A course on hospitality would be a suggestion I would make as having a domestic in the office is not a good look.! I know the front desk is also the office phone but really I do not wish to hear about business matters when at reception. Surely business phone calls could be made in the back room out of ear shot of the customer. I would return if coming to this area again as I sure with experience the mangers will improve their customer service skills .

I am not sure on that. As they have a mob of kangaroos and other native animals present on site, it may well be that they do not allow domestic pets. Best bet is to contact them and find out.
There are more places to choose from in the Arrawarra area.
