Everyone around Australia looks forward to summer holidays with anticipation!
With the rush of warm weather for southerners and the much anticipated arrival of the wet season for those in the northern states, summer brings with it fond memories, the promise of relaxation, plenty of time to spend with family and friends, beach cricket and zinc cream.
Whether you’re a kid going on a road trip with your parents from Victoria to Western Australia
(yes, family holidays without plane trips do exist and they’re the best fun)!, a twenty-something heading to Queensland with mates for some surf and sun before university starts, a DINC (double income no kids) family going camping with the Jack Russell Terrier to outback Northern Territory, or a retiree doing ‘the lap’ – BIG4 has a park perfect for you.
We have parks in Australia’s most popular holiday destinations, so if you’re thinking summer holidays, think BIG4.

 Keep the kids cool this summer with the interactive new
water parks that are appearing at many of our BIG4 Holiday Parks.
Rather than just your average pool, with a kiddies section, which are often stressful for parents of toddlers in terms of safety, the water parks are perfect.
They feature a mix of safe water activities like spouts, wheels, cannons and slides and are great for all ages; from toddlers to teenagers.
The installation of these water parks is proving to be a big hit, and no doubt will gain in popularity once the summer weather takes hold.
What are you waiting for? Cool down this summer at one (or many) of the following
BIG4 Holiday Parks.

With great pleasure, BIG4 would like to introduce two new Holiday Parks to our family.
 BIG4 Hopkins River Holiday Park is situated on the river banks of the beautiful Hopkins River, 5 kilometres east of Warrnambool.
All sites and cabins are surrounded by manicured garden beds and lawns, as well as boasting access to a huge range of resort-style facilities, including an undercover heated pool and spa, games room, gym, table tennis, tennis court, playgrounds and a mini-golf course.
 Located close to the Bruxner Highway, BIG4 Casino Resort is just a short drive from the Casino city centre and the magnificent Richmond River.
The park boasts a diverse range of accommodation options to suit all guests including ensuite, powered and drive through sites perfect for RV's and larger motor homes as well as a selection of modern well appointed cabins with kitchens, TV, A/C and undercover parking.
The park also offers activities for the whole family including a swimming pool, golf course, bowling green and even an off leash dog park so four-legged friends can enjoy a holiday too.
