When I first moved to Bendigo and needed somewhere to stay and all other caravan parks were booked out or not a very nice place to stay, the lovely couple here arranged for us to move into a cabin untill we could get our rented property. Something they never really did they charged us a weekly rent instead of a nightly one, so that we could afford it.
Just out of town in White Hills near the racecourse a large caravan park with pool and spa, bbq area, play area and even a mini golf course to keep the kids happy. Very family friendly
Cabins available as well as sites for caravans

A good range of cabins to suit all budgets. Nice clean & tidy park set in a quiet area near the racecourse. Love the jumping pillow. The mini golf is a bit tired & need of maintenance. The pool is a good size and the same depth but could do with some heating as it was very cold on a very hot day. They have a huge new games room and a great kids play room which I have never seen in other parks. Would definately recommend as a great place to stay!

I have recommended this place to my "doggie friends" as often dog friendly places are second rate but this was excellant value.
Quality toileteries provided( an extra in my view in cheaper accommodation).Discounts at local eating places well worth taking up.Rail trail close by was a bonus for dog walking and morning jog.Will be back.

Approximate cost: $125

Love this area and always good to know about places around here. I know keys for things can be really annoying but so can going to somewhere to play or use something which you find is broken. Thanks for the info.

Very nice amenities, but costs and extras are too much.

This is a nice, small park, in an urban type setting. It has a pool (unheated but soon to get heating), Heated spa, undercover BBQ area and camp kitchen, children's play room with couch, toys and big screen tv, meeting room, jumping pillow and mini golf. The spa seemed great, the jumping pillow was really great, the mini golf ok and the meeting room and child's play room were really fantastic.

However the charges were already more considerably higher than the other parks we stay at in the area, but on top of this they charge you $5 to use the spa (timed), they charge you to use mini-golf, you need to give a key deposit of $10 to be able to use the play room. You are not allowed to keep the play room key overnight due to possibility of theft which they have experienced in the past. It would be excellent to be able to use the play room somehow from a very early age for people like myself with noisy little ones who wake at 5am. The jumping pillow was no extra charge and was a lot of fun.

We take great pride in our park and value client feedback. Thank you for your positive comments in relation to our facilities, especially our newly renovated amenities block (which does have heated floor for winter use) and new function room with adjoining children's play room. This coming year we intend to put in a second barbeque area and extend our existing camp kitchen/BBQ area (along with several other facilities) to improve guest services. In relation to those items you expressed disappointment about:- our costs - we are more expensive than other parks in the area but we feel we offer our clients value for money with our range of facilities and their cleanliness. With respect to the fees for the spa and mini golf - our options here are to include the costs of the spa, mini golf etc into our tariff structure, or leave them as user pays. Feedback from our guests indicates most see user pays as more appropriate. We have a key for the playroom to control access to it. That sounds bizarre but this has been forced upon us as a result of a number of incidents in the past where unfettered access has resulted in the theft of, and damage to, the playroom and/or its contents. We require a deposit for the playroom key to ensure its return. We require the key be returned by the nominated time of playroom closure (or your hire time) so the room can be secured overnight, once again to prevent theft of, or damage to, property. Similarly, we require deposits for the table tennis bats and pool table equipment to ensure they are returned to us. Our pool is not heated - this is an option we are hoping to implement this year (2011) to ensure the pool gets greater use in the cooler months. However, over the summer this heating will be turned off (once installed) and the temp of the pool will be as you found it as the summers in Bendigo are generally quite hot and most of our clients prefer a cool pool. The pool may have seemed cooler than you were used to (aside from the solar heating aspect) because we have invested in shade sails over part of the pool (along with shade sails over the jumping pillow and childrens outdoor playground) for guest health, comfort and safety. With respect to the pool this does reduce the warming effect of the sun.
Again, thank you for the fee back as we are continually trying to improve our facilities & service. We hope you will visit us again one day.
