I had a unique experience staying here which felt quite different and fun! The cabin was clean and comfortable with a great layout, especially the separation of the toilet from the shower. However, I was disappointed by the high price compared to the value received, especially with some of the amenities being a bit outdated. Overall, it's a fun spot for families or those looking for a unique accommodation.

I had a great experience at the park! The amenities were well-maintained, and the camp kitchen was fantastic for cooking. My kids loved the water park and the entertainment provided during school holidays. However, the cleanliness of the bathrooms could use improvement, especially during busy times, and the presence of smoking in public areas was a downside.

The accommodations were comfortable and spacious but did not have much privacy since there was only a curtain separating the sleeping areas.

While the staff seemed to be working hard, the cleaning of the amenities was only done once a day, which wasn't enough during peak occupancy.

I had a wonderful experience at this tourist park. The facilities are top-notch, especially the fun amenities for kids like the jumping pillow and water park. The staff, however, could use some improvement in customer relations, as my check-in experience was not ideal. Despite this, the park's clean environment and modern features made my stay enjoyable and worth the price.

6.8/10

While the facilities here are quite good, the pricing is a major drawback. At $86 per night for a powered site, it feels steep compared to other places with similar amenities. However, the proximity to local attractions is a definite plus, making it a good spot for families looking for recreation options.

I had a wonderful stay in a safari tent that felt surprisingly luxurious for camping. The spaciousness and comfort were impressive, and the adults-only pool area was a peaceful escape. However, the early morning barking from a neighboring dog was a bit disruptive. Overall, a lovely place that I would definitely return to.
