History of the park:

Cleve Krause built the caravan park in its present location between 1970 and 1971. The park originally commenced with 40 powered sites and a central ablutions block. In 1972, Cleve added the first two cabins and in subsequent years continued to add to the numbers until he had nine cabins in total. Since this time, the two have been combined together.



The construction of the Weir enabled a concrete swimming pool to be constructed during the early years. It was first used in the summer of 1972. Today the park is best known for its scenic location, shady sites and peaceful atmosphere. On the adjoining property, also previously owned by Cleve, an airstrip was built. The original intention was to make the park an air-o-tel.
