BIG4 Wye River Holiday Park

Hard mattress, no extra blankets

We booked r cabins for our family break. One was in the lowest price category so we did an upgrade once we arrived because it was much more basic than the others, go for a deluxe. Good facilities and the staff are friendly and helpful. The location is pretty quiet, well it was 10 days before Christmas bit I'm sure it'll be busy over the Christmas-New Year period. There's a small general store and a pub in Wye River. About 15 minutes from Lorne means you can go there for dinner or for a walk at Erskine Falls.

great location and fun for kids, greedy owners charge too much though

No shower curtain, no t towel or dish cloth. Reverse air conditioner NOISY ,needs repair and proper clean. I cleaned filter ,outer cover still dirty.

Stayed in the newer family cabin which was roomier and had everything we needed. The heater worked well which was great as it was freezing, a fireplace would make this cabin perfect; although I probably wouldn’t leave! Make sure you book the right cabin when booking as there is a smaller family cabin which they class in the same range. Lots of wildlife to see, the resident koala, kangaroos, cockatoos, king parrots (my fave) plus the resident goats and dogs. Must take the bikes or scooters, as it’s tailored more for the younger kids not the tweens. Coffee at the general store is great as is the freshly baked sour dough bread and I would pass on the overpriced Beach Hotel hotel, food nothing special and not much of it, we left hungry!

Nice to walk around the park, family friendly. The bed was unconformable and bedroom very small.

Quiet location with everything we required for our 1.night stay

Our cabin was one of the newer ones, so was clean and fresh. The grounds are nice and open around the play grounds for the kids to run around. We saw a koala walking around on two different occasions and many koalas in the trees at different times. They have three goats tied up, our son loved to feed and pat them every time we entered/exited the park. The walk to the beach was easy, though the wind was deceiving in the sheltered park compared to when we got to the beach. I think we would give camping a try as the amenities (toilets/showers) were brand new looking and the camp kitchen/bbqs looked well resourced as well. The general store is very over priced as is the cafe and pub, but they can be as they’re the only things here. We brought all our food to cook except two meals to try the cafe/pub, next time we would just cook every meal ourselves. All in all, I would highly recommend staying in a new cabin if they’re available and you are willing to pay the little extra. Or if you’re happy to go a bit old school then the deluxe family cabin has what you need just a bit mustier (our friends were in one). To add the kitchen supplies is a bit limited, so don’t plan on doing huge cook ups unless you’re with other people and can share your kitchen supplies. **Definitely bring your own water, you can not drink the tap water and the water in the general store for purchase is over priced**

Didn’t know we needed bedding for the kids - when booking a family room it should be included in the price and automatically included in a self contained cabin. Shouldn’t have to pay extra.

The location is very spectacular with wildlife and walking trails nearby. The cabin we stayed in was well equipped and comfortable. We enjoyed the stay very much.
