4 nights at Lake Tinaroo Holiday Park

We went for the Easter long weekend for the first time and we had heaps of fun as a family! The splash pad, pool and the jumping pillow were just the highlight for our kids and so was the basketball court. The staff were super friendly and there were some Easter activities which were organised such as the Easter Egg Hunt, Fire Truck visit, face painting and live music... all unexpected but heaps of fun! Wish that the basketball court had some lights though so we could have played a few games after dinner and the camp-site numbering system needs an update for sure as most of them were deteriorated.
