Crows Nest Tourist Park

Crows Nest Caravan Park provides well-maintained, spacious cabins with stunning views and comfortable beds. Guests appreciate the friendly staff, convenient location near shops and dining options, and top-notch facilities.

We recently stayed at this caravan park as two families with small children and, unfortunately, left feeling quite unwelcome. While the facilities were generally fine, the way we were treated during our stay left a lot to be desired. One evening around 8pm, while sitting at the designated bonfire area (a fair distance from other guests), the children were naturally excited—laughing and playing as kids do. The property manager approached us in a surprisingly aggressive manner, saying their noise was “unacceptable.” This was not only upsetting but confusing, as 8pm is not a late hour, and there were no posted noise restrictions at that time. Another incident occurred when the children accidentally wandered too close to another property within the park. The manager once again rushed out and scolded us—this time in front of the children—telling us their behavior was “unacceptable” without any prior warning or attempt to approach the situation calmly or respectfully. There is a right way to speak to guests, especially when children are involved, and this was certainly not it. It’s also worth noting that we spent more time outside than planned because our original accommodation was cancelled by the park at the last minute due to a leaking roof. Had we been in the original booking, all the kids would have been together indoors, likely resulting in a quieter and more settled evening. We were surprised at how quiet the park was given it was school holidays, but after our experience, we now understand why. If this is the attitude toward families with children, it’s hard to imagine many would feel encouraged to return.

Great facilities to have our large family group gather for the weekend. Plenty of room & space for all age groups to enjoy. Cabin my family stayed in was spacious, clean & well maintained. No insect screens though so needed to shut windows to keep bugs out.
