⭐ What Makes This Park Special

Beautiful Views That'll Take Your Breath Away 🌅

This caravan park is set in a lovely, peaceful location with manicured grounds and plenty of native wildlife to spot, including koalas! The natural surroundings create a calm atmosphere perfect for relaxing and enjoying some quiet time away from the hustle and bustle. It’s a great spot for nature lovers who appreciate a tidy, green environment and want to soak up the serenity of Somerville’s outdoors. The presence of wildlife adds a special touch to your stay, making it a nice little nature escape for families and older visitors alike.

Handy Facilities and Friendly Service 🚗

Western Port Harbour Caravan Park offers clean and tidy toilet and shower blocks, plus baby change facilities, making it a practical choice for families and older guests. The park has a small number of powered and non-powered sites, so booking ahead is wise. Friendly and helpful staff are often praised, going out of their way to ensure a smooth stay. While there’s no internet or phone reception, the location is close to shops and a restaurant just down the road, so you’re never far from essentials. It’s a quiet, well-managed spot for those who value peace and convenience.

Family Playground Fun ✅

If you’re after a playground for the ankle-biters, this spot might not be your go-to. Multiple reviews mention the absence of a playground or splash pad, so it’s not really set up for young kids looking to run wild. However, the peaceful environment and safe grounds might still appeal to families with older kids or those who prefer a quieter stay. For families keen on a playground, it’s best to look elsewhere, but for a calm, nature-focused break, this park ticks the boxes.

Things to Keep in Mind When Visiting ⚠️

Several guests noted no internet or phone reception, which can be a shock if you’re used to being connected. Also, some mentioned potholes and slippery roads after rain, so take care driving in wet conditions. Hot water issues and price discrepancies were reported, so double-check costs and ask about facilities before booking. Maintenance seems patchy in places, with some requests from residents going unheeded. Overall, it’s a quiet, older-style park best suited for those who don’t mind a few rough edges in exchange for peace and nature.
