I had a pretty good stay at Geraldine Top 10 Holiday Park. The cabin I stayed in was cozy, comfortable, and clean, featuring wall heaters and a large fridge. However, the experience was dampened by some construction work that started early in the morning, which was quite disruptive. Overall, once the construction is complete, I would recommend the park.

The park had good facilities, but I found the internet allocation a bit lacking compared to other Top 10 sites I've visited. Also, the restriction on shower time was quite inconvenient for me.

I had an awesome time at Geraldine Top 10 Holiday Park! The hosts were super accommodating and even let me check in early, which was a lifesaver with my little ones. The park itself is beautiful, surrounded by mature trees and centrally located, making it easy to explore town. I did find navigating the path into town a little tricky, but overall, it was a fantastic stay, and I can't wait to return!
