Hi Pamela,Thanks for your feedback. We did attend to the door when it came off the roller, however this was only once during your stay ?Not sure what you mean about the flyscreens, all windows have them ? We did notice a tear in one, which we've repaired. Can't see the showerhead leaking, did you turn the taps off fully ?Kind Regards,

First time stayed here-Staff friendly-Stayed economy cabin but not economy in my eyes.Comfortable spacious all facilities of a cabin under a nice tree-Traffic was a bit noisy along highway but didnt affect me but if a light sleeper the economy cabins may not be suited.No hesitation to stay here again

Loved the stay thank you! Room was wonderful. Exactly what we needed! One tiny thing: The pool was a little too chlorinated/the chemicals were very strong, stinging eyes, drying skin, and leaving taste in mouth.

Hi Sam,Thanks so much for the 5/5 review and the feedback. We are so pleased you enjoyed your cabin !In regards to the pool, we do apologise for the chlorine issue. Some bright spark played with the chlorinator and disrupted the balance of the chemicals in the water.We do check the pool twice daily, so this was attended to in one of our checks. We are sorry that you experienced the symptoms you mention.Thanks again for staying with us. Kind Regards, Samantha - Owner G'Day Parks Ararat

Travelled with family
Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Amenities
Whilst the property/cabin was basically clean it was very basic. We travelled as a family and looked forward to using the playground and/or swimming pool. Neither of these were available. Whilst we continued our stay we did go out of the park to rather than stay on site for 'down' times. It was not a welcoming feeling. Power points and light switches were inconvenient in the cabin. No visible staff - no check our communication. Not friendly!
Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2023
Response from Samantha - Owner on 20 Dec 2023
Hi Kathlene,I was very disappointed to read this review. You stayed here for 4 nights and never mentioned any of these issues to us. Our pool is open and so is the playground so I'm honestly not sure what you are talking about when you say they are not accessible. That's simply not true. Gates are not locked and we saw other guests using the pool also. We have great reviews for our staff and how friendly and welcoming we are, so I am sorry you didn't have this experience whilst you were here. Our office is open at 9am every morning, we have children to get to school so we cannot open earlier. I noticed you had departed before this time once I returned home from the school run.What more do you want in the cabin ???? It's an 'economy cabin' designed for the budget conscious traveller. It's fully self contained !We are a family run business, a small caravan park, and honestly, you get a good rate, much cheaper than the big parks.As much as I've taken this feedback on board, I don't believe it's reflective of the overwhelming majority of guest experiences. Kind Regards,Samantha - Owner / Manager G'Day Parks Ararat

It's not helpful to leave a 4/10 review score with no feedback. We have no idea what you didn't like and we certainly don't think any of our accommodation is a 4/10 standard. If you happen to read my response and would like to email or call to let us know what didn't meet your expecations, that would be much appreciated.Kind Regards,
