- Great stay! Want to come back real soon!
''We wish to thank you for a most enjoyable 2 nights at Mclean Falls Holiday Park. I heard of it from a friend and thought just another holiday park, but how wrong can you be! The welcome was very friendly and helpful. The chalet we had (there were 4 of us) was modern, clean and roomy. More then we expected for the area. We decided to have a meal in the cafe the first night and we were all VERY impressed with the quality of the food up to most top class NZ restaurants. We were VERY happy with all the facilities and really enjoyed our stay with you. We will certainly be recommending your facility to friends and anyone who asks about where to stay in the Catlin's area. Thank you for a most enjoyable experience.''

I felt I had to write and tell you how much we enjoyed our stay at your Resort. My daughter and I stayed in one of your Chalets and found it most comfortably furnished and clean . The meals at the Whistling Frog were lovely, and the sight seeing you recommended was just as good as you said. All in all, a lovely holiday in a great modern and fresh place.

Just a quick note to say you guys were one of our favorite stops during our 3 week vacation! Great staff (especially lovely to talk to someone from the Bay Area), absolutely killer food, and an introduction to Wasp--our new favorite beer! You guys rock."
