We stayed in the dongers which I was UN aware at time of booking of what we wher staying in, as i had asked for cabin...we stayed for 4days, but room clean aircon clean amenities real coffee from reception, the girls are great, Kirra is a fantastic place to stay, close to beach and cafes shops and surf clubs. We returned this year for Xmas holidays and stayed on a van site...Great spot, very big park and close to BBQs Amenities Pool Outdoor kitchen which is immaculately clean considering the park is busy, food vans-seafood, pizzas, come in regularly and weekends. We are also locals and it was a great stay...will be back...thanks 😀 😉

Katie and Max are fantastic hosts, the Nature Lodge was clean and well maintained. It’s close enough to both Colac and Apollo Bay, and has its very own bush trail to the nearby Creek (it’s a steep walk, but worth the exercise to explore). Will definitely be visiting again.
We have been camping here at Kirra for over 10 years, we found this park by chance and have returned all these years for many reasons, the park is very open and spacious, the trees that surround the park are beautiful, the sites are large and with some being pet friendly it’s an extra bonus being able to bring our fur baby, the pool is large, and always clean, the facilities are always clean, with two large toilet blocks, with a games room , jumping pillow and small playground it’s very child friendly , the location is 10/10 walking distance to the beach and shops, yes it’s near an airport but you soon get use to the planes! But above all it’s the staff, Michelle especially is always so friendly and welcoming, the extra things they put on for the children are so special, seeing the children’s faces around the park as they got easter eggs from the easter bunny is one example! Keep up the fantastic work everyone, we really enjoy our time at your beautiful park x
Fantastic power site for camping with a super easy check-in online making it such an easy transition into the park.

Campsite a very spacious with maintained green grass. Facilities are walking distances from your campsite.

We will definitely be coming back again
Reviewing a powered tent site. Sites were so close together and backed onto numerous other caravans and tents with near no personal space, and with rather questionable people staying beside us. Booked for 3 nights and stayed for 1. Didnt feel safe with the people that were beside us, and were advised by another camper that someone had stolen a car from the park the night earlier and broke the boom gate driving the stolen car out. Told our concerns to reception who didn't seem to care.
Planes flying over head are very loud since being positioned next to air port.
Park seemed nice however our experience wasn't. Wouldn't recommend for a tent.

Had visits from wild kangaroos, and even a deer. Moment of my life. Great place. Highly recommended.
Great memories of a short holiday with friends. Actually caught crabs from the jetty and they were delicious. Walking distance to the local pub.

Very clean, excellent and very friendly management, old but super clean and airy bathrooms. Lovely outdoor chillout areas. Space was a bit tight for us getting in with a big caravan and vehicle but it was easily sorted with the help of a friendly resident moving her car for us. The location is great, next door to shops including IGA, cinemas and Pizza Hut. We took our bikes and there is a path to pick up right out the front which takes 10mins to the V wall all flat, and passes many beautiful spots to hang out. No pool, no jumping pillow etc, just a beautiful little clean park. We will be back, thank you.

Wonderful quiet location in the beautiful Grampians, the cabins are very clean and fully equipped, great bbq area, nice little pool and playground. Wildlife right outside the window. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It's a must stay for those travelling here

Absolutely loved our stay at Halls Gap Log Cabins, the hosts were really friendly, the cabins were extremely clean and almost everything was provided. The little one loved the playground and the BBQ area very clean and again utensils provided. Seeing the kangaroos and emu each day was so good. We will definitely be coming back.
We felt spoiled in this spacious modern villa located within easy walking distance of all amenities. At the same time it felt secluded and private. As well as dual heating systems, well equipped kitchen, solid wifi, TV, sound system it had a laundry, separate bathroom and toilet and very comfortable open bedroom. A feature we appreciated was a 4 peg coat hanger. Despite the caveats in the literature we found no problem with the hot water and an indulgent range of toiletries was provided. There was also thoughtful additions to the usual tea and coffee, delicious instant cappuccino and latte.
We stayed 2 nights and made it our base for day tours of the Grampians. It was the perfect choice.

Stunning location. Fantastic cabins.
Better than we expected.
Like an old world charmed log cabin as nature intended with a beautiful touches.
For the price, it was brilliant.
Oh and the fireplace was magnificent and very warm.
We will definitely be returning. Thanks

Needed somewhere to stay on short notice over Easter weekend. Lyn and her husband were a fantastic help with not just the booking but also getting settled in. This is a basic caravan park but Lyn was upfront about this so 5 stars in my mind for setting the right expectations and for great service. Clean ammenities and nice quiet park.

A well appointed villa that makes a great base for exploring The Grampians. Plenty of hot hot water & a toasty warm gas fire makes for a snug place on a cold afternoon after the exertions of walking the mountain tracks. An easy walk to all the shops & restaurants. We would have liked some sheer curtains in bedroom area for more privacy.

We have stayed in places like this all around the country - but this is the BEST. From the friendly welcome, to the clean cabins, all very well equipped and set up, it is great.
While it is a couple of minutes drive from the town, that's no real problem and is more than compensated for by the spectacular mountain views and the ever-present close up wildlife.
Will always be one of our favourite places.
What an incredible place! Whether for a quiet solo getaway, or a weekend away with mates, this is the spot! The view as you drive around the bend is just breathtaking. The gardens are gorgeous, the walking tracks and the waterfalls close by. Max is the most generous of hosts! Can't wait to come back!

Fantastic place to stay! Super friendly crew,
The views from the property are just beyond incredible included with the most beautiful walking tracks to some cute little falls, if you’re looking for a quiet get away, Top of the Otways is the place to go.
An opportunity you don’t wanna miss!

This place is lit, has such a sweet vibe. There’s heaps of kookaburras and ferns and stuff around if you like that sort of thing. The accommodation is very homely and relaxing. Great views and walking tracks. Would recommend.

My favourite place to stay for a weekend getaway!
Spectacular views across the valley and farm animals for entertainment. Perfect location- tucked away beetween the coast and pristine waterfalls of the Otways. Thanks Max for a great stay, would recommend highly.

Top Of The Otways is a perfect escape. Set amongst lush green forrest and rolling hills, you’ll enjoy peace and quiet with the option to venture out and visit local waterfalls and restaurants, or stay in and keep cosy. The hosts are beautiful and there’s chickens and goats to feed! Dog friendly. Highly recommend.
We had the best time during our short visit to this caravan park. The unpowered tent sites were incredibly affordable but the sense of community and comfortability was priceless. The bathrooms are very clean and well designed. We enjoyed playing darts with the permanent locals and enjoyed in the banter of a birthday party. You will feel very at ease at this place. 5 stars.
Magnifecent property to share time with friends. Lovely water views made our time at Wisteria Waters memorable
We had a lovely time at this park. Everyone was very welcoming especially the owners. They were kind enough to provide us with a really fun NYE event! Facilities are clean and it is great value for money. We would definitely stay again. E & M.
This is a gorgeous villa with plenty of character. Perfectly located within quick walking distance to town centre - yet feels so private and secluded! We had a spa while watching kangaroos bounce around outside and enjoyed breakfast on the deck with more skippy friends, rainbow lorikeets and rosellas. There are a few board games and dvds for a rainy afternoon and plenty of beautiful walks located right outside your door. The fireplace makes the whole place toasty and warm in winter and the kitchen ensures you can cook in or dine out as you choose.
Amazing house and setting. Great retreat for friends catch-up or family
Awsome weekend here beautiful house and surroundings ❤❤
Great quiet place within walking distance of the town

Kangaroos greeted us upon arrival and we had emu in the back yard on our last morning. Perfectly situated to walk the trails without the use of a car. We had a great time.
We were very impressed with this holiday village. We were given a very warm welcome on arrival and offered a fabulous position for our caravan overlooking the river in a beautiful lawned shaded area. Def recommend staying here.
My husband and I have just celebrated our 50th Wedding Anniversary with a 2 night stay at the beautiful Wisteria Waters in South Yunderup, with all our family. It was wonderful. With five bedrooms, two bathrooms, two living rooms and everything superbly presented, with every attention to detail and above all the magnificent view of the canals, birdlife, dolphins etc from our rocking chairs on the huge back verandah, with its lovely bbq area and spa, we could not have asked for anything more!! Oh yes, the weather was perfect, the canal was a millpond and we all had a go on the supplied kayaks! Thank you again for some wonderful memories!

Can only agree. Staff is so nice. Was a real pleasure meeting you. Felt really welcome and got some very good advices for our travel plans down south. Even though we were ringing their office at around 9pm.
Of course it hasn't got the perfect location like directly at the beach but everybody can see where it's located and though it's a really nice place to stay. All cleaned up and at a very fair price. Would definitely come back and stay longer.
