David Laing
★★★★☆“really enjoyed the day here with my son, played crazy golf the hit a few balls on the driving range, crazy golf was a bit slow and children under 5 in front of us made it a little tedious at times, but lots of fun really, ine little moan is it is all a little pricey at over 100 dollars for a go and hitting 100 balls on the driving range!! however it is a great day and a great walk in the countryside to get there”

★★★★★“BATS!!! We had a wonderful little family hike here to see the famous flying foxes, otherwise known as fruit bats. Being from Hawaii, this was a totally unique and cool experience as don't really have a lot of bats in hawaii! We walked maybe a half mile from the parking lot and BAM, BATS GALORE! This place is totally worth visiting! and remember, BATS AREN'T BUGS!”

★★★★☆“We generally park as close as we can to Deep Rock swimming hole as it' a beautiful walk along the river there and then head towards Dights Falls & back. Great dog friendly walk with a mix of offlead & leashed zones throughout. I personally have gone swimming there, and wouldn't after heavy rains but plenty other dogs seem to love jumping in at different sections where allowed”
