We recently spent 3 nights here as we have been impressed with the first few Family Parks we have used. The photo for the site is a little misleading as the sites on the beach aren't quite so lush. We had a nice site nearer to the office as we have a big rig and required a large flat site.... More

This park is full of permanant vans with their built-on rooms and TVs. The location is great with the beach right behind, but you won't get to hear the waves because of all the duelling TVs. Don't believe the staff when they say it's only a five minute walk to town. It's twenty, at least. And don't bother trying to... More

Dear “Only Caters to permanent “Vans””, Sorry Mate, you definitely have the wrong Park. Firstly, we don’t have “permanent” residence in the park – not one, except for our live in caretaker. We are a dedicated, accredited tourist park. We have 10,000 guests per year that are extremely happy with our park. Secondly, we are exactly one Kilometre from the... More

perfect location for a stop over in Phillip Island, we stayed on site 188 which was next to the sea as I'd asked for a water view when I booked and got it, receptionist was very friendly and I'm very grateful for the site allocated. The beach is steps away from our van, there is some seaweed on it but... More

Stayed for 4 nights on a powered site. Nice and close to the beach which was sandy and water clear. Our site (#69) was very dusty and lacked grass. Amenities block is dated but clean. Water pressure good for a nice hot shower. Only saw staff in reception on arrival. There were three office staff when we checked in and... More

Dear Belinda, Thank you for your lovely comments. Our staff, however, were a little upset to see you felt you weren’t greeted correctly. When we first read your comments we immediately checked the CTV footage in the office. When you checked-in for the SuperBikes, there were 3 girls in the office, you were attended to and definitely greeted correctly, with... More

We felt very happy to let the children roam the grounds on their bikes and play cricket on the beach, it felt very safe.Julie Mark and the team always make us feel very welcome. The caravan park...

In the park broacher they posted me, says Cowes caravan park is dedicated tourist park and we are committed to the highest quality standards, helping you to enjoy your island holiday. Well I think the rabbits and rats we saw at the park would agree to this and the dogs that crap every where will also. An opinion from a... More

It is not often we feel compelled to respond to a comment however, in this case we must. Yes, we totally agree with you there are a few rabbits in the park at present, but no rats (must have been the baby rabbits you saw) and yes we don’t have soap dispensers in the amenities block, most campers prefer to...

Wonderful!! We had a great time our family of 6 plus another family all enjoyed our stay. Close to everything we needed, we especially love the resident cat. A big tick from us and we will be back. I'd recommend to anyone.

We have camped here with our friends for the last 4 years - 2 families, 2 sites, 4 adults and 5 kids. For the last 3 years, we have had a great time, and while management is not so friendly, once you get past reception and to your site, we never saw them. Not this year! Extremely unfriendly, and they... More
