The Bistro will REMAIN open for take-away orders until further notice. This means the 2020 Blues & Blueberry Festival has now, sadly, been cancelled.

Park Update

COVID-19   

Caravan Parks and Camping Grounds – COVID 19

At the direction of the Chief Health Officer Victoria campsites, caravan parks and camping grounds will now be closed to visitors.

This will be effective from 11.59pm (local time) 25 March 2020. 

The only people permitted to remain will be:

  • People who already have the caravan park registered as their primary place of residence; and

  • People staying in caravan parks as interim accommodation where their primary residence is not available (including those of no fixed address and people placed in emergency housing by DHHS).

These actions follow further restrictions on domestic and international travel, with all non-essential travel banned. Compliance with this directive is enforceable under the section 203 of the Public Health and Wellbeing Act 2008 and penalties apply.  

It is important to reduce the risk of infection and slow the spread of coronavirus (COVID-19) in the Victorian community.
