Ceiling fan should be a basic requirement. The box fan made no difference in the extreme heat.

Office closed at 3 pm weekdays and was closed all weekend. The cabin was very old, floor rotted in areas in the bathroom. The seals in the shower taps needed replacing as they dripped constantly. A heat pump in the water heater right outside the window sounded like a generator ( window was closed). It came on at different times of the night and stayed on forever.

Spare of The Moment Booking
Neat cabin, reasonably quiet and unique location. A spare of the moment booking in a location we had never stayed. Well appointed for a cabin, that’s not meant to sound derogatory either. Staff were very helpful and friendly.

We arrived at Lillyponds around 5pm, our key had been left out for us. We see there two nights and didn’t see the owners or any staff while we were there, this seemed unusual. When we left we had to leave the key in an unlocked box. People were trying to access the office for change for washing machines. I would have liked to ask if there was a hair dryer I could borrow no one available. Very nice gardens around the park.

Pretty nice place. The area gets very cold but the unit has an oil heater to help with that. I'd totally stay there again next time I'm up in Mapleton. The only thing I was worried about was that the locks on my unit were a bit fiddly. After locking the door, it's pretty difficult to get the key back out without unlocking it again

Magical Cabin for a quick getaway
Lilyponds is our most favourite getaway destination & have continued to return at every opportunity to get away. We have stayed in many 5 star hotels all over the world but we found Lilyponds Holiday Park to be the best.

3 nights of comfort.
We used our stay in Mapelton as a ‘base camp’ to explore the towns in the Blackall Mountain Range. Having a little cabin with a kitchen was a definite plus. WiFi was fine. Amenities were fine. Accommodations were close to each other, but the holiday park was very quiet. The pool was shallow, too shallow to swim in, more appropriate for small children. We would stay here again.

Not too shabby
We enjoyed our stay. The bathroom sinks and bathrooms were a little run down. The bathroom sink wouldn’t drain and the whole bathroom stunk of really strong bleach... but overall was an awesome last minute getaway and would recommend if you’re looking for somewhere to relax and use the place as a base for all your adventures.

Nice area, basic cabin.
Great managers, but I can't understand why they couldn't afford to give me a full chux and new scourer after paying $110 a night! Nobody wants to use a scourer that has been used to clean filthy greasy pans. Chux and scourers are cheap. Please supply "new ones" If you are into recycling, then perhaps offer a double bin, one side rubbish, the other recycling. Cabin scruffy for that amount of money. Old water damage on roof, perhaps clean that up, not a big task. Otherwise a nice a quiet location.

Birdlife
For the price this was very good. The wifi was unlimited, included in the price and fast, something more expensive hotels should learn a lesson from. Shower and toilets was set in one building, among all the cabins, that's what I personally dislike when you want a quick bathroomvisit. Besides that I was very pleased, and the staff was helpful and pleasant. Restaurants/stores were a 5 minutes walk away. And you are close to nature, something the sounds from the woods around certainly will tell. I liked that :-)
