We decided to book into the Poplars Caravan Park as it was right in town walking distance from a large shopping centre and the main streets, RSL Club etc. We were able to get a drive in and drive out site which is useful with the Motor Home.
It is only a very small park with no frills. It is an old park but it was clean and we had no security problems or noise while we were there. Our site was close to the amenities block which suited us as we wanted to stay for two nights. The sites need an upgrade but it was all workable. It would not be a park to take a young family to as there are virtually no amenities other than the usual toilet and laundry blocks. There are no playgrounds, BBQ areas or swimming pools.
The best part was we could leave the Motor Home parked on site and walk to the shops and the RSL Club for dinner. When we needed to drive out to see the zoo and to play golf it was no hassle as we just unhooked our electricity and drove out and returned later in the day. The sites are allocated when you book so there is no worry about anyone else taking our spot.
The position suited us and we decided to book in again on our way home which we did and it was just a matter of walking down town to see the Old Dubbo Gaol and picking up something for dinner. There were some good shopping outlets so I did manage to have some retail therapy.
This park is probably not for everyone, but it did suit us and we would stay there again.
We loved our Dubbo experience - especially the zoo.
