Cathedrals on Fraser

we stayed on the premium camp site which was nice and close to amenities and was a powered site. Showers were nice and hot. I found the back packers to be quite feral leaving toilet paper everywhere, also found the back packers had zero respect for the families that stayed there and struggled to understand gender bathrooms. massive shout out to the management for getting on top of the issue ASAP and the tour company for dealing with the issue as well. I love that I can let my kids play freely and not worry about the dingoes. I like that the campgrounds are generously spaced out and not right on top of each other. and I like that they catered for all camping level. from camping to glamping to cabins. We will go back again.

As a group of 6 families we booked out all 6 of the new Wilderness Villas and they really are superb. We have stayed in the cabins previously - also really great- but the Villas are next level. Really well kitted out, great storage, and the separate shower / toilet / basin configuration is particularly well designed (but take an extra bath mat). Having dedicated firepits for the villas made for some indulgent evenings… Cathedrals is in a perfect location, offers a wide range of accommodation/camping options, is safe, fenced, clean and really well shaded by trees. Looking forward to our next trip !

We stayed in a 3 bedroom cabin (no bathroom) for 10 nights and it suited our needs. With 2 adults and 4 children it was a little tight, but that is to expected with a family this large. We spent most of our time outside the cabin, either exploring the Island or socializing with others. A few noteworthy improvement suggestions, a small vacuum in the cabin to pick up the sand easily - a broom and dustpan is provided, so not the end of the world. One of the toilet/shower/laundry blocks is dated and could do with some renovations to modernize it, there is also an odour near the block, but isn’t noticeable at the cabin we stayed at right across from it. I suspect this is the result of one or two lids on the septic system having small gaps allowing the odour to escape. Another improvement would be to allow eftpos or have a change machine in the laundries so you don’t have to rely on having change (especially after reception closes at 6pm). It would also be great if there was a wash down bay for cabin patrons, we didn’t take a hose as we were in the cabin, if we camped, we would have had one with us. Makes it a little hard to keep the sand and spray off the windows and the car, visibility is highly reduced with a lot of spray on your windows. We had a great time on the Island, there was only 1 day where it was too wet/dangerous to be driving along the beach, that didn’t stop us enjoying ourselves as we decided to socialize with other people in the camp kitchen and had a great time. A few of the staff are likely on a working holiday as some of them were a little unsure of details about the Island and communication could sometimes be a little challenging l, but nothing to upset our holiday as we always got the information or service that we needed. Overall we really enjoyed our stay and the dingo proof fence provided a little more comfort for us knowing that it would be unlikely a dingo would be on the premises. When we return, I wouldn’t hesitate staying here again.
