CREDIT CARD GUARANTEE:

All bookings require a credit card for security. Your credit card number will be held by an encrypted link for the duration of your booking and stay.

Charges can be made to this as re.ested. This can be used as a bond for hire equipment or shop items can be placed on your account for charging at check-out or after.

You will be required to show this credit card upon arrival, with a matching drivers licence as proof of ownership.

Damages or loss incurred from your cabin or site may also be charged to this card. This could include, but not be limited to loss of items from your cabin, damages or non returns of hire equipment, loss of keys or damages to the site such as a broken tap.

TRAVEL INSURANCE:

We recommend all guests take out Travel Insurance for their holidays. This should protect against the unlikely event that you may be forced to cancel.

Examples of unforeseen circumstances: In case of bad weather (ie. excess rain), death in family, transport difficulties (ie. plane strike, car breakdown or flights being cancelled), severe emergency events (ie. flood, fire) these are just some issues you may face.

Insurance policies vary between companies so take the time to research thoroughly to ensure you are protected against all issues that may be encountered.

NO SHOW: 

Guests who arrive later than their booked date will forfeit the cost of the unused nights.

GUARANTEED SITES:

Please note that whilst we do our best to cater for guest requests, we are unable to guarantee site or cabin numbers. You are guaranteed a site or cabin within the category that you have booked.

Due to operational reasons, sites and cabins are allocated at the discretion of the park and may be moved without notice to a site or cabin within the same category, for example due to a maintenance issue or to accommodate a new booking.

RIDING EQUIPMENT

Bikes/skateboards/rip sticks/go carts/scooters: 

Children are permitted to bring their own riding equipment to use in the park and will be issued with a bike licence upon arrival.

Motorised scooters are illegal in NSW and therefore we do not allow these or any other motorised equipment.

We enforce a strict “No Helmet, No Ride” policy.

Riding after dark or around certain parts of the park is not permitted.

Failure to follow the rules set out in the bike licence will result in the equipment being confiscated for the remainder of your stay.

PETS: The park allows pets on specific site and in specific cabins at the Manager’s discretion. Click here now to learn more about our pet policies. Please advise us in advance if you are bringing along your pooch.

CLEANING AND DAMAGES:

The guest agrees to leave their accommodation/site and any equipment or facilities used in working order and clean and tidy condition.

Damages or loss incurred from your cabin or site may be charged to your credit card.

This could include, but not be limited to loss of items from your cabin, damages or non-return of hire equipment, loss of keys or damages to the site such as a broken tap ($80 fee minimum).
