My thread last week discussed our displeasure with a caravan park experience at which time someone was evicted after trying to stand up for himself after being verbally abused by a cleaner for using the urinal while she was in the men's toilets. Again, there was no sign or warning she was in there at the time. Now we have left the park, we can say the we would not stay at Coolalinga Caravan Park again. Objectively, the park is poorly maintained with dangerous cement paths (missing in parts) and generally unpleasant surrounds in most of the park. Add to this the Kulu birds who "cry" all night. For all those who will respond saying that I am a whinger, I can say that the said cleaner does do an excellent job. We have also stayed at the Shady Glen CP, and while it is a nicely maintained park with good amenities, the park is close to the airport and a loud metal recycling plant which operates into the night. The service is excellent, but sites are very close together and you feel a bit cramped. We are now trying Lee Point CP and can say I wish we came here in the first place. It is a little dearer/night, but the 7th night is free (not offered by the other two parks). The location is close to shops and hospital and only about 12km from the city. It is a spacious park with older style but good amenities and an excellent pool area. We have not had a problem with midgees which a lot of people have warned us about. We are now looking forward to leaving the city for some NP stays.
