Discovery Resorts - Cradle Mountain

Probably one of the best camping spots we had in our life. The heated camp kitchen and toilets/showers is a must in winter and we’re incredibly happy to use it. Worth every single dollar!

I think best place to stay near cradle mountain. Cabins were new, all appliances were good new condition. Wifi excellent although our cabin was in the end of road. Staff was helpful and when I had issue with heat send help immediately. Location wise very good very near to visitor center

This would have to be the best accommodation we have stayed in throughout Tasmania! The Premium Cabins at Cradle Mountain Discovery Park are amazing didn’t want to leave from the king size bed to the underfloor heating was just beautiful! Fluffy bath robes supplied…….A great gas fireplace! Electric blinds & beautiful sheer curtains it’s just pure luxury! Full size kitchen with everything that you need to cook a Sunday roast if you wanted too. The bathroom has a large bath big fluffy bath towels & a great shower with a rain head! again pure luxury! There is a back deck which faces the bush there is a table & chairs to enjoy a quiet drink while enjoying the serenity. I recommend if you are going to Cradle Mountain & need accommodation then give the lodge a big miss & stay here you won’t regret it you’ll think you’re on your honeymoon again just amazing! Great value half the price of the Cradle Mountain Lodge! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this accommodation it was pure joy to stay

Pre booked 2 night stay on a powered 18’ site. Super helpful staff via email and phone, plus a really warm welcome check in. The park is well laid out, one way roads, easy access sites, many with trees either side for privacy. The amenities were busy given it was Easter but clean and an added bonus, heated. Laundry was also good, coin operated machines and driers which were $1 coin per 9 or 10 minutes. Washing lines are also available. Camp kitchen was amazing, huge central fireplace, plenty of seating, cooking and refrigerators to accommodate many, plus outside were pizza ovens, a Weber BBQ and flat grill BBQs. Something for all. The park is walking distance to the visitor centre as well. Really enjoyed our stay, should have planned better and made it longer. Highly recommend choosing this park for your stay up the mountain.

Stayed at the premium cabins, very nice, warm, modern and clean. Photos when booking were a little misleading, we assumed we would have a little more privacy and be surrounded by more nature. Other then that really close to the visitor centre and some nice restaurants around for dinner

I would have given it zero star if I can. Stay away from this place at all cost. We paid $255 for one night in this "cabin" and couldn’t wait to leave. . Check-in felt careless—no staff, just a vague text because reception closes at 5 PM. We clearly booked Discovery Resort and was directed by an 'after-hour staff' to Discovery Parks. When arrived, we were a bit shocked of what is waiting for us. We booked a 'two-bedroom' cabin and it was so cramped for just two people we could barely move. The stove is literally next to the toilet. I don't think this is even legal. In Australia, you need to have two doors between the kitchen stove and the toilet. There is no sense of space or feel, this place feels like some random people just throw random furniture picked up from council collection so they can make a few quick bucks. Make sure you take enough drinking water and for cooking (if you intend to cook next to the toilet) because the water from the tap is yellow. I would not drink it even after boil it. The only positive for this place is the heater is working well, —so at least we were warm while plotting our escape. The one star is for the roof over my head during 1 degree climate.

I highly recommend Discovery Parks Cradle Mountain - we had such a wonderful experience. We were in a motorhome. Its a natural environment with big sites, fabulous bathrooms and camp kitchen. It's a short <1km walk to the Cradle Mountain shuttle. Unfortunately during our stay my husband became unwell with COVID. Vanessa at the front desk was extremely helpful - she sorted out a wonderful cabin for myself and toddler so my husband could isolate in the motorhome. Because of her (and her teams) many kind and thoughtful actions, we managed to stay healthy. They were so flexible and accommodating with our booking and went above and beyond trying to help. It was one of those experiences that warms the heart knowing there are such kind people around. Thank you Vanessa and the team at Cradle Mountain Discovery Parks - you really made our stay wonderful.

We recently stayed a couple nights at Discovery Parks which is situated just a few minutes walk from the Cradle Mountain Visitor Centre. Reservations were made online a couple days prior to arrival. There were plenty of powered and unpowered sites available throughout the park on both days so booking wasn't essential. ||Checkin was brief, information and map to our designated site were provided expediently upon arrival at reception. Camp ground is spacious, there are multiple communal kitchens with common seating rooms, toilets, shower and laundry facilities. Proximity to the Visitor Centre is very convenient, you can simply walk over and board shuttles into the park for hiking and general visits, no need to take you vehicle. ||Overall, Discovery Parks is a good holiday park at Cradle Mountain. Would be happy to stay here again.
