Big problem.
As with many people no power at all.
SO....bread roll last night, no cup of tea, no shower, all in the dark, window was left open so water on floor beside bed., no TV, no breakfast, so we left at 7.30 am.

G’day Paul, thanks for staying with us at Discovery Parks - Mount Buffalo . We’re ecstatic to know you had an awesome stay with us! We look forward to seeing you next time to enjoy it all over again. Thanks for taking the time to provide your review. Kind Regards, the Discovery Parks - Mount Buffalo team.
It was a beautiful spot beside the river. Cabin was comfortable and covered our needs adequately.
Wasnt happy at being contacted by the park after completing (and paying) our booking online advising we had to pay extra as we were travelling with a small dog. We booked the dog friendly cabin. We stated we were two adults and one dog. Booked and paid - then had to pay more. Seems unfair and no point in booking online for dog friendly accommodation.
Awful! The Receptionist was so rude, unhelpful, and unfriendly. The worst customer service that I have ever experienced. The gas for the stove and oven were both not working properly. No wifi connection during our entire stay. I would not recommend this place.

G'Day Emily, Thank you for taking the time to send us your thoughts. We were unaware of the problem with your stove so thankyou for bringing it to our attention. The wifi was not a strong signal but we are in the process of upgrading the boosters. Kind regards, Discovery Parks Mount Buffalo
The park is set in beautiful and peaceful surroundings. The best thing was that when we arrived at 9pm at it was freezing, our cabin was toasty and warm. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Glamping tent was superb & ideally located along the river. Perhaps a small milk in the fridge, and matches to light the candle would make it perfect?

Hi Mick,
Thank you for your lovely review! Upon arrival we ask guest's if they like milk as we give out a fresh 1 liter bottle to our Glampers. No lighter needing for those candles they may look real but are battery operated.
We hope to see you again in the future & our happy staff are always happy to help out.
It was great, except that it was very muddy because of the rain and no good place to park the car next to the cabin.

Hello,
Thank you for taking out the time to write us a review. We are pleased to hear you did enjoy your stay. Very lucky to get rain to make our park even greener, unfortunately mud is something we cannot help.
Hope to see you again in the future.
Wonderful location & great place for kids. Cabin had everything I needed & staff were helpful.

Adequate
Adequate for the price and served its purpose but would not return. Happy to pay a bit more and have everything in order . Opened two kitchen cupboards which promptly made contact with floor as bottom hinges not secured to cupboards. Wanted to flip some eggs but no utensil . Not the end of the world but it did say all kitchen / cooking gear supplied and I’m sure someone has a check list to tick off before next guests arrive . Pet friendly = yapping dogs so will stick to “ no pets” accommodation next time .... not the parks fault tho !

Hi Mark
Thanks for your feedback. Apologies for the inadequate supply of utensils. As you can appreciate we have the occasional utensil go missing however we are ensuring the cabins are maintained adequately after departure.
thanks again
My stay was brief but I would like to come back and stay longer. I rented a budget cabin which had everything I needed. Very comfortable. Thank you.

Thank you for taking the time to review us. Your feedback is much appreciated. We are glad that you enjoyed your stay and would love to welcome you again.
Property is well managed, the cabin was ready earlier than expected and was very clean and comfortable. Location is perfect if you want to explore Bright and Mt buffalo.
We enjoyed our stay and will visit again.

Thanks very much for the kind words Jordan. We're glad you enjoyed your stay and look forward to hosting you and your lovely family again.
A good value stay for a weekend to the snow. We were able to easily reach both Falls Creek and Mt hotham. The staff were nice and the room was comfortable.

Sure is a lot cheaper than staying on the mountain! And when you stay here you have the option of going to Falls, Hotham or Buffalo instead of being committed to just the one. Hope to see you again soon.
The place is very accessible. It's tidy & spacious. The kitchen is well stocked. Though it rained the whole time we stayed but still we enjoyed our stay. The staff are friendly & approachable.

Hi Grace, we are glad you enjoyed your stay. As relatively new owners here still we are wrapped when people enjoy their stay. Please come back in the warmer weather. When we moved here in March it was 32 degrees every day for weeks on end! It was just perfect!! hope to see you again soon.
Stayed in a deluxe cabin that could accommodate five people in two rooms. Has an ensuite bathroom and an open plan kitchen fully equipped with crockery and utensils including an oven, microwave oven, four plates gas stove, kettle, etc. Double bed in master bedroom has electric blankets. Linen and soap provided. Living room has flat screen TV and DVD player, and split system air conditioning unit. Very impressed with the cleanliness and tidiness of the place. Simply a modern hotel but in a caravan park setting. Love the hot showers.
lovely friendly staff. clean tidy rooms. cabins are super cute and homely we absolutely loved it. the only down side was not having a bathroom in the cabin, perhaps more accurate photos of the rooms? other than that a solid 10/10 highly recommended we will be back for sure :)
Porepunkah Bridge Caravan Park still a Great Place
This is our second time there and now with new owners it remains a fantastic place to stay, close to the river a short walk into Porepunkah and 5 min from Bright a great place to base yourself and explore .We mostly spent our time mountain bike riding around the many trails that area and kayaking in the river
Came to Porpunkah for a bit of R&R, just looking for some quiet time. Found that exactly, couldn't recommend this place more highly and will be bringing the family back here!
Lovely place with stunning surroundings. Great service too. Close to everything with walks and a quick ride into Bright. Lots to see and a great place to relax. Very family friendly. Would definitely stay there again as it was a great base for exploring the Victorian Alps.
We stayed at Porepunkah bridge caravan park recently and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Beautiful surroundings,clean,great river access and pool. Its a really beautiful part of Victoria...well worth a visit.
