The staff were great when we arrived. Helpful and cheerful and informative.
Then we had an emergency with our teenagers and needed an extra room on the spot. They moved things around and we were able to get the kids a room.
Friendly, helpful, amazing. Could not recommend enough.

2/10 Poor
14 April 2024
This place was terrible. I checked out after 40 mins - nothing in the room but a bed, place looked like a cell. One of the owners was revving his motorbike in the carpark trying to impress a bunch of middle-aged bikers when I arrived - which pretty much sets the tone for the rest of it. The ‘complimentary earplugs’ were a canary in the coal mine and if the drunken fights between the 18 year old clientele were anything to go by, I reckon I’d of needed them. Waste of money.

After of hearing of this lodge 5 years ago, we we’re finally able to find a vacancy here which matched our travel plans and there’s good reason it’s so popular. The owners are very friendly and extremely helpful. Their attention to detail, and cleanliness is evident throughout their unique facility. We were so impressed we booked again this week for our return journey. Highly recommend.

The free parking offer is a bit exaggerated because the owners had occupied about 6 bays for their own caravan and SUV, forcing me to park off-street. The inside parking should really be reserved for guests b/c it's part of the package that we paid for.

Very Basic and Overpriced:
Room was very small. Ceiling was relevantly low from one side. The outer door with mesh didn't close properly.
Bedding was also not clean, and there was a strange smell in the room.
