Our family camping trip to Kennedy Park was an unforgettable experience, filled with great facilities for kids and an overall amazing atmosphere. The variety of swimming pools and the central cafe were definitely highlights. However, we faced disturbances from other guests at night, which dampened our experience a bit. Overall, it was still a fantastic place for families, with lots of things to keep everyone busy.

I had a great stay at the resort. The holiday unit was recently renovated and quite comfortable. The heated pool and jumping pillow were a hit with the kids. The location was decent, a bit of a walk to town, but overall, it was a great value for the price, especially in the off-season. Just a little noisy one evening, but nothing that closing the doors couldn't fix.

We had a mixed experience during our stay. The family-oriented aspects were great with plenty of activities for kids, but we faced noise issues and disappointing service in the restaurant. The amenities were enjoyable, but the overall experience fell short of what we expected.

The hotel has some great amenities, including lovely pools and spacious areas to relax. However, our experience was marred by noise disturbances from the ground floor room where we stayed, which made it tough for the family to rest. Although the overall facilities were nice and the return to this hotel was enjoyable, the specific room situation led us to leave earlier than planned.

Rooms

Unfortunately, we found our ground floor room quite noisy, which disrupted our sleep and made our stay less enjoyable. It would have been better to have options available for a quieter room.

I had an incredible time at the campground! The facilities are absolutely top-notch, with spotless kitchen and bathing areas, and plenty of amenities for families. However, I was disappointed with the check-in process, as our room wasn't ready until nearly 5pm. Overall, it's a great place for camping, but the management could use some improvement in handling busy times.
