Guest Reviews
- Dennis (7/5): - Quiet park. Shower pressure is very low. The bed is small for a 6' person due to the size of the cabin
- Jacqui (6/5): - Location worked well. Ease of access. The joint amenities could have been opened earlier and they definitely should have been checked for cleanliness. They were not clean.
The cabin could have been a bit cleaner also.
- Tanja (8/5): -
- Sally (9/5): - Very easy, we arrived late and keys were left for us
- Jason (7/5): -
- Paul (9/5): - Quiet, clean, good location Nothing
- Lisa (9/5): -
- Helen (9/5): - Clean & warm. Had everything we needed.
- Phil (9/5): - Bed so comfortable Shower was terrible.... Low flow
- Swapna (6/5): -
- Victoria (8/5): Very enjoyable stay in a beautiful area - Friendly staff and accommodating for our dog.
- John (7/5): Quiet & comfortable cabin. - Quiet location. Nothing. It was what we wxpected
- Jasmina (5/5): It was ok just for 1 night - We didn’t have any breakfast Bad is too small, and there is hardly any space to move in the room
- chris (4/5): - Wifi was dodgy. Getting help involved calling the park managers (who we never actually met) and they had to pull over and dig out an alternate password. Ok for a caravan park.
- Bronwen (7/5): The Penola caravan park was a good place to stay on my road trip. Pet friendly and welcoming. - The location was fine. Within walking distance of the main shopping strip, bars, cafe's and restaurants.
The other guests staying at the caravan park were friendly and welcoming. Nothing to comment on here.
- Brian (3/5): Far too expensive for condition of cabin. Will not stay there again and not recommended for anyone else - Location was ok
Bed was comfortable Entire cabin was very tired. Bathroom bowl unusable as it wouldn’t empty. First chair I sat on nearly collapsed as nuts had come undone. Cold morning and no heating. Difficult to get into and out of bed as little room between wall and bed.
Didn’t see any staff so couldn’t comment about them
- Andrew (7/5): - Good location. Very quiet. Great shower. Pretty cramped for 3 adults. Ok if you are 2 adults and kids.
- Chris (8/5): - Key was not in designated box
- Paul (8/5): Pleasant -
- Ian (9/5): comforable and most relaxing - the peace,tranquility and cleanliness of the room. not applicable
- raymor56 (8/5): -
- David (8/5): Convenient and clean. - It did what it said on the tin! It was a convenient overnight stop on our journey from Barossa to western Victoria. The facilities were adequate, the bed and shower good and it was clean. Nothing really, it just lacked any charm!
- Sukhwinder (8/5): -
- kylie (10/5): - The ease of self check in, nice and quiet park. Lots of space, nice green grass and shady trees. Park is very well kept Nothing
- Karen (10/5): -
- Rhycea And Pedro (10/5): - Wow factor. A lovely glamping experience.
- Stephen (9/5): -
- Karen (8/5): -
- Christopher (9/5): -
- Saheem (1/5): Change the bedsheets please when someone leave the cabin. - It was quite not many people around. Cleanliness was the major issue we faced in our beds. Seemed like the bed sheets were not changed as we found hairs and dead bugs under the quilt and on the pillows in the main room. And kids bunk beds (bottom) had spider webs which was scary for kids. I should have taken the pictures that time but were too tired that day. Other than that, there was no issue with anything.
- Kristin (7/5): -
- Rajapakse (9/5): -
- Gaganpreet (8/5): - Friendly staff WiFi and location
- Damien (7/5): -
- Hannah Mae (8/5): It was something we'd never forget :) - The cleanliness and location. :) I would give it a 10 if there was a stable WiFi connection and a TV that's connected to the internet 😅
- Julie (10/5): - Just wanted to share how much we enjoyed our stay last night. The Glamping Tent was amazing, had everything we needed and was very comfortable.
I was a little hesistant about Glamping, but after last night's experience I think we will be seeking out more Glamping experiences.
Next time we hope to experience the wine barrel baths.
Thanks again,
Julie and David Demasi Everything was great, nothing not too like, only that our stay wasn't long enough!

Good location That we had to leave, really enjoyed our stay in Penola
- Wolfram (1/5): - Nothing really At 5pm nobondy any more at the reception, nobody could be called (automatic reply) or called back. The cabin was pretty cold and not well cleaned.
- Rose (9/5): -
- Lindsay (8/5): -
- Exner (10/5): -
- Jurgen (7/5): Just what we expected a pleasant stay for 1 night. - Location.
Facilities Frypan in cabin 6 needs replacement ( buckled by 11 mm)
- Adrian (8/5): -
- Anne (6/5): - A comfortable stay Remote to Tv was not working very well. Pooling water at driveway entrance was challenging but given terrible weather conditions understandable
- Mark (5/5): Penola Caravan park was barely passable and will seek alternatives if I ever return. - What breakfast? We cooked our own.
Location was good in relation to proximity to township.
Short stay, one night, unlikely we will return.
Camp group toilet and bathroom facilities were clean. Fan in bathroom was noisy and needs replacing.
Camp was littered with leaves and puddles.
No reception available for check in despite being within published office hours.
- Christine (5/5): Ok - Location They wanted to charge me extra $15 for linen because we were using 2 beds . I had to explain several times I entered 2 people in the app and shouldn’t be charged ..
- Chris (7/5): Good - Quiet time of the year. Comfortable, excellent heating Had stayed before so knew what to expect so no problems at all
- Amanda (10/5): Exceptional - Spac
- Warren (8/5): the location was convenient to the places we were visiting - not applicable
- Karen (7/5): Good - Good location

- Matthew (7/5): Good -
- Paul (6/5): Pleasant - Location I felt the accomodation was overpriced
- Angela (10/5): Exceptional -
- Teagan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Scott&kim (8/5): Comfortable with plenty of room for two. - Roomy cabin, double bed was good, lounge room had plenty of room. Bathroom, could do with an upgrade.
- Penelope (8/5): A good place to stay in Penola - Availability A horrid smell outside. Not sure if it was toilet or the rubbish bins
- Karen (7/5): Good location & facilities but be sure to check out spot on 10am! - Great location & amenities + clean, modern, spacious & quiet. The knock on the door at 10am with a gruff ‘it’s check out time’. I had thoroughly enjoyed my stay before then but left thinking I will never return again! It was very unnecessary…
- Yvette (7/5): Good - Park was quiet and it was nice to have a kitchen. Cleaning needed a little more attention to detail
- Amber (10/5): Amazing - Great Nothing
- Dent (9/5): Superb -
- Daryle (8/5): Clean comfortable accommodation, would stay again. - Air con was on when we arrived so cabin was lovely and cool, on quite a hot day
- Jenna (4/5): Disappointing - I liked the location of the park and it was nice and quiet
- Natalie (7/5): Ok but could have been better - Small private caravan park. Easy walk into town. I walked with my 7 year old son.
Onsite car parking was great.
Book library at reception was a great added touch Mattress quality on the bunk beds was uncomfortable, I could feel and hear the mattress springs.
Cleanliness was ok, could have been better.
- Cathie (5/5): Passable - Unfortunately our children are covered in bites from what appears to be bed bugs from the top bunks. Outside of that, the cabin served its purpose. Unlikely we’ll stay again.
- Varun (9/5): Superb -
- Don (10/5): Exceptional -
- Rhirhi (8/5): Very good -
- Pedrioli (8/5): Very good -
- Ethan (8/5): Very good - The property was spacious and conveniently located to Penola and the Coonawarra wine region. The only minor negative is that the bathrooms were a tad bit dated, but still very usable.
- Greenfield (6/5): Value for money! -
- Christine (8/5): Very good -
- Colin (5/5): Passable -
- Joni (10/5): Exceptional - Lovely location! Nice, quiet, comfortable and clean.
- Joanne (9/5): Superb -
- Gary (9/5): Everything you would want from a short stay - Very quiet and comfortable Not much
- Robyn (9/5): Superb - Great location, spacious cabin , well appointed.
- Brad (8/5): Very good -
- Craig (10/5): Exceptional - What a find. We had a great time in the caravan park. Friendly staff. Loads of winerys to visit
- Damon (7/5): Good -
- Jeanne (5/5): It was OK, but!!!! - It was ok for a quick stopover to break up the journey. It was mostly quiet, I'm guessing the truck noise was higher, because it's vintage time, it wasn't a real bother. Place could do with a serious clean. All coffee cups had dried up stains in them. With the light shining in, it was easy to see on the tiles in bathroom that they hadn't been cleaned for a bit especially over the hand basin and around light switch. The shower dripped all night and quite a bit, and try as I might, it didn't stop.
- Diane (10/5): Exceptional -
