CARAVANNERS touring Western Australia have a new place to drop their
steadies near Perth.
The popular Golden Ponds Recreational Fishing Park and Function Centre at
Baldivis, 46km south of the city, has thrown down the welcome mat for
caravanners and motorhomers.
Owner Tony Pannacchione told Caravanning News he had opened the RV
park to meet a growing need.
"We had travellers who said they could not find anywhere to stay with
their big rigs," he explained. "So we have provided 11 sites which are
easy to get in and out of."
Manager Chris Cater said the park was already proving popular ...
"probably by word of mouth".
"We have had travellers from all over Australia, including Queensland,"
she explained. "One couple has even booked for next Christmas, so we must
be doing something right."
While the RV park was unable to accommodate large groups such as caravan
and motorhome clubs at the moment, it was planned to offer more sites in
the future.
Sites cost $30 a night with a discounted weekly charge of $180.
The park has a new amenities block, coin-operated laundry, large camp
kitchen ... and two dump points.
Golden Ponds is set on 100 acres and offers stunning lakes for
recreational fishing and is described as "a tranquil alternative to the
hectic rush" of the world outside.
