Staff and rooms smells like Dettol

We booked a standard cabin. It was very old cabin and the flooring, sofa and kitchen are very old and not clean. Toilet was blocked in the second day and we moved to another cabin. Wifi has no connectivity in our room. It was terrible experience and will never go back to this place.

Really enjoyed our stay at Goolwa . 3 bedroom house was exactly the right size for us and was safe for the kids to play. Comfortable beds and great shower. Close to swimming pools and playground for the grand kids. Also close to shopping and food outlets at Goolwa.

First time staying at Discovery Parks and can say that I will happily be back again. Truly enjoyed our stay there! Perfect location, walking distance to shops all whilst keeping the serenity in the area. Cute cabins that are updated and well kept. The only downfall was there was no internet working in our cabin. After a long drive from Melbourne to Goolwa, we were hoping to unwind and watch a film, but it was late at night and no staff were operating at that time. It showed the TV connected to Wifi, but there was no internet to the Wifi. Not sure what happened or why...but other than that, we were extremely impressed with the place and will be back again for a longer period of time!
