Read the brochure twice. The second time, read the fine print especially carefully.

Wattle Creek Holiday Park — Where the Bush Meets the Beach

This is the text of a brochure for a holiday park. Read everything carefully, including the small print at the end marked with stars.

Escape the ordinary. Just two hours from the city, Wattle Creek Holiday Park sits on 20 hectares of peaceful bushland beside a sparkling river, only a five-minute stroll from a golden, uncrowded beach. Whether you want adventure or absolutely nothing at all, Wattle Creek has it waiting for you.

Stay your way

Choose from powered caravan sites, cosy safari tents, or our brand-new family cabins with air conditioning, full kitchens and private decks overlooking the water. Every cabin sleeps up to six, so bring the whole crew.

Fun for everyone

Kids will never be bored with our giant jumping pillow, heated swimming pool, pedal go-kart track and free nightly movies under the stars. Grown-ups can hire a kayak, cast a line off the jetty, or simply sink into a hammock with a good book. Say goodbye to screens and hello to real memories.

Meet the locals

Wake to the sound of kookaburras. Spot kangaroos grazing at dusk. Join our ranger-led bush walk every Saturday morning and learn how to find koalas high in the gum trees.

Eat, drink, relax

Start the day with barista coffee and fresh pastries at the Creekside Café, fire up one of our free gas barbecues at lunch, and gather around the communal fire pit at night. Our camp kitchen has everything you need, so leave the pots and pans at home.

Getting here

Follow the highway north for 150 kilometres, then turn off at the big wooden kangaroo sign. It is sealed road all the way, so you can arrive relaxed and ready for fun.

Don't just take our word for it

'Best family holiday we've ever had. The kids cried when we left!' — Emma, Bendigo.

'We've been coming for eleven years and we'll be back next year too.' — The Nguyen family.
