Stayed in May for 2 nights for the big festival in Townsville-was the only place left by the time we booked! Were really pleasantly surprised by our studio room, really modern, clean and had everything we needed including great A/C. Unfortunately, had a very loud and clicky fan which might need fixing...But overall very good accommodation for the price! I... More

Stayed in April for 3 nights in a park cabin at the front, looking across the water to Magnetic Island and had a great time. The Cabins have been refurbished very tastefully with quality inclusions and management has ensured everything is done to make the place safe, secure and quiet. There are security cameras covering pretty much all of the... More

We stayed in a cabin at the park which included an ensuite and air con. Very clean and well appointed. Small cabins but comfortable. Place has a great pool and is good accommodation for the price. We've stayed at a few parks on this trip and it was by far the nicest, and the service outshone all the others we've... More

it's a very busy caravan park with little privacy, very shady, the amenities are very big and clean; there is only one kitchen (not enough for such a big caravan park). We felt safe because there is a fence all around the perimeter and a code to enter the camping, bathrooms etc. A little bit too expensive!

Spent 2 nights here in their unpowered camping area in a campervan. The facilities are clean and modern and the camping area is right next to the camp kitchen which was convenient. Not too far out of town and in a quiet area across the road from Rowes Bay

After 50 nights on the road staying in caravan parks this was the only time my husband and I felt threatened and were scared. For several hours we listened as an heated conversation between campers escalate into an argument and then into a fight. The language was appalling and the verbal threats scary. We didn't get alot of sleep that... More

after searching for a caravan park in Townsville, coming across Rowes Bay seemed to have only one aspect worth some of the money spent - the location! i nearly died at the rates of $28 for a NON POWERED site, although we gave in purely as its located along the water. i am most disappointed that the showers had no...

We stayed here for about 8 months on a powered site. In my opinion it is the only caravan park worth staying in in the central townsville location BUT it am referring to camping in a tent or caravan! The park itself is well treed with large grassy sites, there are 3 amenties blocks (one renovated two older but all... More

We stayed in a lovely deluxe cabin, which was very modern and clean and had a good ensuite. However, we couldn't enjoy our stay after thieves entered our room while we were asleep and took my handbag and my husband's clothes from literally 30cm from our heads!! They must be thanked though, as they left all the belongings outside the... More
