Nrma Lake Somerset Holiday Park

The location provides stunning views of Lake Somerset, making it a favorite among weekenders. The well-maintained facilities ensure a pleasant stay despite high occupancy.

Great place for waters sports and fishing walking ( the park is 1 km end to end) and just relaxing Very popular as its quite close to Brisbane for weekenders. Amenities are well maintained. A huge range of various sites available as well as glamping.

Went in January 2022 with a family two primary/ high school children. We usually go to beach style holidays opposed to bush / dam settings so this was a change for us. We have stayed at about 5 other safari tents parks and this park equivalent of “safari/ glamping” is way behind all the others (all other we have stayed at have an ensuite / showers and kitchen amenities including kitchen tap/ sink area and microwave. We stayed in safari tent (1) and it is a basically a budget tent. Even trying to change clothing was a problem due to the layout of the tent and no screening. There were bathroom amenities about 100 m away which were average in cleanliness and very minimal in numbers. The park was no where near at capacity even though it is January school holidays. I would hate to see the lines / etc then with crowds. Safari tent 1 was located right next to the boat ramp so be prepared to listen to boats going in and out and cleaned near the ramp for a solid part of the day time hours. The camp kitchen is on the other side of the park where there were no bins near the kitchen which made it quite the pain to clean off. The safari tent could use a storage tub of basic bbq utensils to use. There is a wood fire pizza place that was on grounds when we were there. Beautiful pizza but $6 surcharge for g/free for one base where the pizza was dinner plate size was a bit steep. The pizza was tasty though. This is a very budget park and it appeared users generally went there for boating. Saturday being a very busy day on the dam bank. Majority of boaties were respectful to each other however a fair few jet ski operators were just complete utter dangers to themselves and other dam users. A few people were seen paddle boarding in the morning however I doubt they could utilise the Dam properly during peak times. There is a small boat, kayak and board company that operates on site and mini golf. The parklands are white baron and both much do do there after the water during the day time. Kilcoy Exchange Hotel was a decent meal and courtesy bus that you could arrange from the park. Whilst we are glad we went, this park certainly doesn’t fit our needs and wants. We will stick to the beach parks. For anyone was looking for a safari tent camp in far south nsw, Seven Mile was awesome.
