Opal Hot Springs & Holiday Park
Great room, newly renovated. Parking by the cabins was a bit confusing though. Got our parking spot taken over when we went to town for dinner and came back to another vehicle parked in front of our cabin.

It was the honeymoon suite with a spa bath ... which pumped out lumps of black algae; a mood killer I'd say.
