We only stayed 1 night but it was nice the only thing was that part of the flooring in the kitchen area was on a lean. Otherwise it was worth the price.

Cabin was clean and comfortable. Check in process through the key safe was fairly seamless except I didn’t get a code straight away. Only issue was we only got 2 towels for 4 people staying. One tiny bar of soap which we practically used in two nights after being filthy from Summernats and I had to ask for a spare toilet roll because we did run out and there wasn’t a spare in the room. Reception was accommodating when we asked for extra towels and toilet paper but we arrived late the first night and had to share the towels.

Bed mattress were very old and springs gone very soft. Cleaners didn't do the clean correctly. Microwave was dirty. You can see kitchen top was not cleaned properly. No staff was available on site at property to show. We end up leaving after 5 mins even we paid full upfront. Looks like a junkies place.

Make sure to double check the room booking. Specifically booked the studio cabin and was changed to triple bunk version which wasn't appropriate for the kids ages that were listed due to height and lack of safety rail

Lovely little property. Great value for money. Clean neat grounds. Nice small pool. Cabin was nice and much more than we expected. Only downside was it just needed some minor maintenance and cleaning under bunk mattresses.

After arriving in Canberra for a getaway with our family, we realized we booked at a hotel for the wrong week! *arrrgh* jumped on Expedia and found Crestview Tourist Park, booked 2 night stay in a family cabin and couldn’t have been given a more perfect cabin! Right next to the playground! Kids had a ball playing in the playground and riding their scooters around. I feel this was meant to be! Great facilities and room was perfect for us! Thanks! We will be back :)

Upon arrival, the cabin that we stayed in had a terrible smoke smell that wouldn't go away even though they are advertised as smoke free!! As reception was closed when we arrived, so there wasn't much we could do about it. Great pool and location if you don't get stuck with the older cabins that stink
