Hands down the best sleep ive ever had in any accommodation i ever stayed at. No signal for the phone or tv though made it a little boring for the kids in the arvo as going outside meant being eaten alive by mozzies. But apart from that great stay

Excellent cabins and cave tours

The cabin we stayed in was excellent, large and well equipped. Nice BBQ which we never got to utilise. Went on the 3 tours and all were great, especially the adventure tour. Reception and tour guides friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Only problem for us was we caught Uber there and didn’t realise the groceries and restaurant were 5min drive down the road.

This property is a hidden gem. Having lived in the central Qld area for most of my life I'm ashamed to say this was my first visit to Capricorn Caves and the Caravan Park. Oh what have I missed out on for all these years. The cabin our family had slept six very comfortably and was very clean with all the amenities needed for our stay. A BBQ on the deck was an added bonus as it made self catering so much easier. The peace and serenity of the area would be a perfect getaway for someone wanting to escape the craziness of city life for a few days. For our family it could not have been better. 10 out of 10 thank you so much for having us.

Signs say gates shut at 6. Arrived at 5 30 and they shut. (Have minial service to call for help which we understand is not their fault) Soiled kids undies in the cupboard Hairs on pillows and in bathroom drains Found on monday when we stripped the bed they also had skid marks and poo on them. Emailed park themselves on Monday before making the review but still no reply and its now Thursday. I would go back for the tours if Drew was doing them but otherwise steer clear of the joint.

Great spot with comfortable accommodation

We spend 2 nights in a 2 bedroom cottage which was spacious, clean and comfortable. The caves cathedral tour was excellent, highly recommend this tour for all ages. There is no mobile reception in the cottages or caravan park. Free wifi is only available at the caves cafe/reception area.
