Guest Reviews

Qi Zhao (10/5): -
Leigh (10/5): Very quiet location and extremely comfortable -
Loomes (9/5): Discovery Parks Risdon Vale - Clean, well-appointed cabins which have everything you need. They lack nothing Also the range of activities located on-site for kids (even big kids) is very good. Much more than your standard playground facilities! Although close to town and an easy drive to attractions, the location next to the East Derwent Hwy means traffic noise can get a bit loud.
Emma (10/5): Great stay, lovely staff very helpful and accomodating, accommodation was nice and close to everywhere - I liked that the delux cabin was like a home away from home with everything my family needed Playground facilities where excellent for the kids Sticky food left on the floor
Ursula (10/5): -
Sydney (8/5): - Good location and price, did the job of what we needed it to do.
Aida (9/5): -
Lauralynne (6/5): To pricy to be woken up & annoyed - Good location & great park area Didn’t like the noise of people having bbqs drinking woke my kids up being so late at night
Johnno78 (7/5): - Liked the location and the size of the cabin Not so much of the traffic where trucks go by as it is quite noisy. There were a few issues with the cabin that I was not happy about which were The Table is very wonky and unbalanced, Sliding door is badly jammed and noisy as well a mouse in the roof.

Vipin (10/5): -
Sarah (8/5): - Loved Tegan, she was working in the reception. Truly made our stay the best. Nothing was to much. She helped us with anything we needed. The mini golf and bounce pillow was frequently visited by our kids. The washing and dryer facilities were fantastic. Cabin was basic but had everything we needed. Not really the accommodations fault more the people who stay there with pets. There was ALOT of dog poo around the kids play area and walk toward the play area. Id love people to be more responsible as pet owners. We've traveled with out dogs and cat previously before their passing and it isnt hard to clean up after Pets.

Amanda (8/5): -
Roopesh (8/5): - Over all the stay was comfortable and nice. The amenities provided e.g. toiletries were inadequate for 4 night stay.
Sharma (6/5): - Wifi was mentioned in the advertisement however it didn’t work for a single day . My kids said, this is the worse stay we ever got in holidays time. Moreover, my son got wound bleeding , blood was on the floor on bed sheets . I asked for cleaning assistance and bed linens . Linens had been provided but no cleaning as there was no cleaning product just the dirty mop to use for 7 days . if you stay over 7 days then cleaners come for cleaning which is ridiculous. Dogs poo everywhere in kids playground park Internet and cleaning
Tomas (9/5): We’ll be back! - The staff were all friendly and welcoming. Check-in was very easy and the room itself was very clean. Great option for families with young children. The park staff had decorated with Christmas lights throughout, which was a lovely touch.
Thakshila (10/5): Exceptional facilities which well suit to the family - Very clean and well maintained facilities. It would have been good if the location was bit closer to the city centre. However, overall it was good value for money.

Suzanne (10/5): Very helpful friendly staff plenty to do on relaxing days easy access an close to shops - Nice location and spacious easy to find an clean an comfortable
Steven (10/5): -
Caitlin (5/5): Overall lovely and caring staff, accomodations need simple repairs/ care to make it worth the money. - The bed was comfortable, the cabin, toilet and bathroom was genuinely clean. We came after hours and the staff over the phone were amazing. The next morning we dropped off our key and again the staff were lovely! The shower head was broken. It kept folding down and the screw to make it tighter didn't work. The fly screen door was broken. A young child accidentally ran into our cabin and she was by herself, no parent to be seen. My partners side of the bed had a dip where it wasn't even. The bathroom door into the shower and the sliding door splitting the childrens beds and the kitchen was stiff and couldn't open when shut. We had to body push both of these doors.
Hannah (10/5): -
Caitlin (7/5): The stay was very nice and very good for the price. The area was lovely and the staff were so kind. - The spacey apartment was great. Felt much like a home away from home. And the variety of kitchen appliances was In one of the bunk beds, we found a spider. But other than that it was really good.
