Anyone going to portland vic, don't stay at Dutton way van park.  I made the mistake of paying in advance for 10 days, only $20pn but we wont do that again. Next time i will book one night and then extend if we like it. I dont think they own a lawn mower the grass is up past your ankles which wouldnt be a problem if its not raining, but i have to wear compression stockings so every time i go to the amenities they get soaked might have to but some wellingtons. There are crappy vans all around the park half done jobs everywhere, clothes lines need replacing, cant use the bore water to drink but there is rain tank,we werent told about this. Laundry needs a good clean dont use the smaller washing machine it just suds up and doesn't finish washing, when i told the owner he said i had too much in it, 2 towels and 4 teatowels??? $4 per load of washing machine and dryer. OK had my whinge now feel better.

It's always handy to know of other nomads experiences in van parks.

Needless to say there won't be too many of us staying in this particular park.

Thanks for the headsup.

We stoped there 2 ys ago mainly because they were dog frendly & cheap, got sick of paying top price for other parks, we were told where to get the rain water & thaught the showers were old but were clean. The permanents we met there were very frendly.  Daryl
