great place to stay with views of Mt Larcom

Extremely friendly and helpful owners, had a small cosy cabin with on suit bathroom. Lovely smell of locally made soap, very clean cabin and beautifully decorated, very comfortable beds, kitchen had everything needed including large fridge/freezer. Highly recommend staying here and don't miss the view of Mt Larcom at the top of the park especially at sunset or walking up Mt Larcom ( some fitness required).

What a Gem, worthy of a few nights if you are not in a hurry.....

What a wonderful relaxed (and relaxing) small CP this is !! We had the absolute pleasure to spend 4 nights here in May and could have easily remained a few more nights. Set on the highway north of Gladstone, the park is small (but sites large enough for our 9mtr MH), very neat, impeccably clean and exceptionally well run by Geoff and Teena - WELL DONE to you both. We arrived on a Friday and were welcomed with a Bush Poet evening under the stars, complete with campfire and sausage sizzle. If you have the time, don't pass this one by. David and Anne

Quiet, clean, friendly, value

New managers and just as friendly as the last. Stayed again in the large cabin Hillsborough which it appears has had an update and is stylishly furnished with every amenity we needed. Lovely views of surrounding trees from every window. Small deck to sit on and enjoy a cuppa or a wine. Fantastic halfway stop between Brisbane and Mackay, we highly recommend for cabin stayers but the caravan sites look great too.

Date of stay: April 2022Trip type: Travelled as a couple

Room Tip: Ask for Hillsborough cabin as larger and in a good position

Rural, clean, nice gardens and nicely kept, nice management

Lovely rural setting. Flat sites, but sloping Caravan Park so it doesn’t feel as closed in because most sites have a bit of a view over the top of the neighbour. Friendly management. Nicely kept and clean and tidy. Nice nature walks available directly from the park. Take care if coming from the north, as you turn right off the highway just when it becomes an overtaking lane so there is a good chance someone will be right up your Plaka to overtake someone on the left as you were trying to turn right off the highway…

Very Nice Park

We stayed at Mt Larcom Tourist Park for one night. It is just off the Bruce Highway. We had a double cabin with ensuite, fully self-contained with kitchenette, the unit was very clean, bed was comfy, air-con worked very well. No Netflix, but free WiFi is available. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. This is a great, pet friendly, affordable place to stay short or long term.

Just traveling south

We needed a bed for the night and booked in online late in the afternoon. We have stayed in many motels and cabins that have been more expensive but this is the cleanest and most well appointed that we have stayed in. Well done to the owners/managers.

Who would have guessed how good this little Park is ?

Contrary to recent reviews concerning noise and rude owners, we have to say re the noise if you stay at a park 100 meters from the Bruce highway use earplugs,Simple! As for rude owners ,the People who complained maybe need to have a think about their own attitudes, we have just spent 3 nights in one of the cleanest and most welcoming parks, an absolutly gorgeous spot in a very friendly Queensland small regional town we enjoued one of the most pleasant Evenings here with a Sausage sizzle and an absorbing evening of Bush poetry, our Park hosts were just Wonderful, efficient,caring and very friendly, Thank you both so much, just what we needed.xoxo

NOISE!! NOISE!! NOISE!!

If you want a quiet place to refresh from the rigours of the drive, then dont stop here. The amenities are clean and welcoming and the owners have thoughtfully made a little walk up a hill to a viewing point which is marked by solar lights at night. A well set up camp kitchen and a share library as well. The owners are friendly and strive to be helpful but the constant unceasing rumble and roar of trucks on the highway and the whine, squeal and horns of the freight trains on the nearby line were upsetting and uncomfortable for me. I became quite unwell and was pleased to leave.

Thankyou Lorraine. So sorry that your stay was not as enjoyable as we strive for our guests to have. Thankyou for acknowledging the positives too as for most guests these more than make up for the intermittent traffic noise. Hoping you are now recovered and that in future you are able to find a convenient stop off away from any noise. For potential guests reading this review who are sensitive to road noise please be aware of our location and book in advance if possible, requesting a site further from the road - if available we will do our best to accommodate you. If we could teleport such guests a couple of kilometres inland away from the highway to improve their experience, believe me we would. We can offer a friendly welcome, affordable stay fees, clean amenities, a secure gated petfriendly park, abundant birdlife, beautiful scenery, and pretty gardens, all presented with a smile.
