Big4 Cania Gorge Holiday Park

Great place as a base to explore the walks in Cania Gorge. Large caravan park with large sites. Lots of wildlife hanging around. Enjoyed being able to have a fire at night. Friendly staff and good coffee at reception. Such a peaceful place. They offer meals on Friday and Saturday nights.

We’ve stayed at Big 4/Breeze Cania Gorge a few times now, from tenting to the hillside cabins, and on this occasion it was off, it seems to have lost its vibe. The bird life was very quiet, not like recent visits where birds where everywhere all the time, the bird feeding was not like it used to be, just standing around and waiting for action but nothing this time. Very disappointed. It’s recently had a change of management, which the park workers are polite and friendly, and most of the reception ladies. Fire pits are available but have an order in by 3:30, we were 10 mins late and the staff just shrugged their shoulders. The leaflet stated wood orders to be in by 3:30, not the fire pit order. Email acknowledgement could be improved also. The toilet/shower facilities were generally clean, good hot water in the showers however the temp fluctuated often as people were using them and making the shower burning to luke warm, so be mindful when others are using also! The pool/water park was busy, very cold even in 30deg days. The ground surrounding the pool should be considered for some maintenance or upgrade, it can be very slippery!! We saw multiple slips. The jumping pillow and tennis courts were very popular, but again saw no one playing the frisbee golf, this area could be revamped feels very under-utilised. Pizza night was great and convenient filled the spot, 9” pizzas varied from $10-25 and also 15” pizzas varied from $16-32. Orders have to be in early however. Coffees also available from reception. There is a little convenience store in reception but the shelves were not stocked, only 50% full. The park was very dry, desperately need some rain, and the nearby dam only has 26% capacity and again did not deliver with any red claw activity. The national park walks near by are great, however again very dry, no water running through the creeks. Dripping Rock however was surprisingly still dripping! We’ll look to return again in the future but not in a hurry due to this underwhelming visit.

The park is very kids friendly and the staff and service was great. The cabins could do with an upgrade though 😀
