Site 4 - Colonial Village Powered Van Sites
Mmm 6/10 - but also cool 🤣
Booked this last minute and after reading recent reviews it was ...as expected - the communication was ... selective - very clear on how to pay the key deposit but not very clear on where to set up or replying to any other questions - over all - its quirky and cool just be careful where you step and park and yes the spa is cold and the pool Is ew - but there was at least one fancy feathered peacock and some other cool surprises - you can walk to dinner and entertainment as well as a good yabby pumping spot and a nice rock wall walk next to a harbour - didn't catch anything but a bit of a tan 🤣 - Harvey Bay is Pretty cool around each coasty turn

Lovely weekend away
We had a powered site and it was lovely and quiet. Would be a bit of a walk to the pool if you had kids but for a quiet weekend away, it was lovely.

Site 4 - Colonial Village Camping - Tents
No fuss campsite that's welcoming for dogs and boats. Friendly reception staff and clean and tidy bathrooms. We stayed at an unpowered campsite (site 4) which is close to the pond and pool. Large enough site to park car boat and a 10 man tent. Not allocated sites as you share site 4 with other campers, so get there in time to pick your spot. Close to a dog off leash area and the Esplanade is on cycling distance. The camp site has some lovely birdlife with the resident peacock showing off his feathers. Close to the busy road, so not a serene and quiet spot, but comfortable enough.

Internet does not reflect correctly
I write this with the best intention as I do believe once apon a time this was a lovely camp site. But it definitely needs some love.
The pool area really needs some attention (especially the “spa”). The spa was cold, black at the bottom and the pool had green patches on the floor. I know we weren’t the only people to find this area a real disappointment. We picked this site purely because it had a pool, but we dare swim in it.
There is sign of a bar, pool table etc but nothing was open and it all looked very tired.
Where the electric point plots are there is a shack which has a dirty old sink and some very dirty and broken chairs around a table. I wanted to wash my dishes here, but it’s was filthy and only had cold water.
Instead of using the pool we decided to go and play bat n ball on the tennis courts. However, we took one look and thought there’s no way we could play amongst the leaves.
The best part about this site is the Peacocks and little turtles. Other than that, the photos on the internet do not reflect the site today at all.
The site needs a lot of love and some money spending on it. Everywhere was just a little too tired.

Wouldn't recommend.
Trying to think of the positives.
Good location close to Marina and some shops.
Toilets clean.
Lovely Peacocks in park.
BUT
Old, run down and poorly maintained.
There's a tennis court but you couldn't play on it with all the crap on the court.
There's a bistro & bar; but oh they are closed.
Don't even think to arrive before 2pm, no one there and after hours phone not answered.
Caravan grey water flows from Neighbour a site.
Trees not pruned and touching van.
Had to go to caravan wash to clean all the crap off the van.
May suit some but not us.
