Merrigum Caravan Park is amazing! I've stayed twice and will go back. It's hot hard work with the picking but the money is good and you will meet amazing people. Sandie is nice, she really is and helps you with anything. Had some interesting nights at the pub, including a strip show on the bar. All good fun!

Really friendly, nice cabins, clean bathrooms and showers and Sandie is really helpful. Good chance to save money, and meet the locals!

i had the time of my life there. i was with a gorgeous dutch girl i'd just met. we worked during the day and after went back to the caravan park. it feels like you are completly cut off from the rest of the world. the way of life is completly different to anything else you can experience. i could quite happily live there for ever

I had the best time of my life here. We stayed at the campsite for three months and fruit-picked the whole time we were there. Sandie and Jeff are the best. It's just like being in the Summer Bay Caravan Park. Within hours of arriving we had jobs, friends and beer. Happy Days.

Great place to stay. A local cafe, pool, and pub are just some of the great things in Merrigum. The owner, Sandie, is very nice. So go there, have some fun, and make some money at the same time.

Merrigum is an excellent place to stay. Myself and my Swedish mate Gustav only could bare a week of fruit picking, much to the disgrace of Cara up there. :)

It's hot in the summer. At least there is water nearby to keep cool and a pub a few steps away. Not much else though.
