Manager's name is Nanette. This park is neat and tidy and has a number code secure for amenties, and back gates to the beach but I feel the amenties nead a good overhaul, they are getting old and patch up, 3 of the men's shower cubicle doors did not lock. The annex slabs were small but ok. Being a Top Tourist member I paid $41.40 for 2 days. Friendly staff, staff offered tourist advice, staff explained park layout and facilities. Price was as expected, good value for money ($23.00 2A per night powered). Amenity number would not cope in peak times, are close to most sites, were clean, condition is reasonable, water pressure is good, there was adequate hot water, soap provided, paper towels/dryer provided, exhaust fans/good ventilation. Adequate number of tourist sites, mostly level sites, good night lighting, average sized sites, concrete annex slabs, adequate taps close by, adequate sullage close by. Good laundry, good camp kitchen, secure entry. Quiet, open & roomy park, plenty of shade, family/friendly atmosphere, no permanents. UC bbq area lighting, seating provided at bbq. Suitable for few days, suitable for families, well maintained park.
Parking: Special book in lane.
Added Touches: Good fish cleaning tables
Local Information: Fishing at jetty out the back gate, the town centre and supermarket (Foodland) is in walking distance.
Roads: Bitumen

Park is 100m from the shopping centre and across the road from the beach, protected by a security fence. There are two exit gates controlled by a keypad with same number as used for amenities. Reception was friendly and we were guided to site. Sites are generally shaded, gravel surfaced and reasonably level with concrete annexe pads, some are drive through, good water and sullage to sites. Central amenities block is clean and well maintained, although I must admit we didn't inspect the door hinges. Good hot water to showers, mop supplied. Would be generally adequate for numbers as park was close to full each night. Laundry was perfectly satisfactory. No noise problems were apparent. Admittedly there are no facilities such as pool or playground, but beach is a stone's throw away and there is a playground on the foreshore. There is also no toilet dump point in the park, but there is a town one about a kilometre away. Wireless internet available for $5 per hour. Price of $23 2A for powered site before discount considered good value compared to parks of much lower standard. Suitable for short or medium term stays – we would certainly stay again.
Likes: close to shops and foreshore.
Dislikes: keypad access to amenities rather than keys.

The previous owners kept this park immaculate - what a shame they sold it. Unfriendly staff, bad staff response to complaints, staff explained park layout and facilities. Price was as expected, poor value for money. Amenity number was adequate to cope with the number of people, are close to most sites, were dirty, condition is poor, there was inadequate hot water. Adequate number of tourist sites, mostly level sites, good night lighting, average sized sites, concrete annex slabs. Poor laundry, no rec room. Noisy park. No bbqs, no playground, no pool.
Likes: Close to the beach.
Dislikes: Dirty. Where is the health inspector? The showers grew mould, the latches to the showers and toilets were grubby and remained so for the four days we were there. The "cleaner" used special mops that did not touch the corners of the toilet and shower cubicles. Many of the tiles in the showers were badly mismatched and some cracked. Washing machines were dirty with caked washing powder around the lids. Rubbish bins were located by the vans and were very dirty. Leaf litter and some general litter piled up along the wire fence. This park is now run by a manager.
Local Information: Meals at the Ceduna Community Hotel were expensive and very average.

We arrived on a 40-degree day and really appreciated the bay just over the sand dune and the shade shelter built on the beach. Masses of flies made us also appreciate the full shade cloth enclosures with doors around the rec. centre, the camp kitchen, and the semi ensuite amenities. The fish cleaning, crab cooking area was also fully covered with a shade cloth building, which also had grape vines and fig trees growing inside, the delicious fruit available to all in the park. A clean well maintained park, good staff, and with the problems that exist in town, the best place to stay in Ceduna is here, 3 km out of town.
