My second time here and as always it was a nice stay. Very safe quiet and relaxing stay. The shared facilities is clean and the other campers are respectful. Close to the central business district, so plenty to do.

NRMA is relatively reasonably priced for our travel but we didn’t expect that the room had no bathrooms. We made it work and it was a good experience for the kids. The room was equipped with what was needed for our stay.
