Council has adopted the Echuca Holiday Park Master Plan and committed to an initial five year implementation program for new facilities and upgrades to the park.
Campaspe Shire Mayor, Cr Adrian Weston said whilst the master plan has a 10 year program, the initial 5 year program is council’s immediate focus.
“The park improvements have been identified as a priority due to continued growth in the caravan and camping industry and the high standards guests now expect,” Cr Weston said.
“It’s great to see reinvestment in the park, which will continue to grow into an important tourism asset for our region.”
“With tourism being so important to our local economy and this site being ideally located, council understands that significant upgrades will attract even more tourists and encourage longer stays.”
The master plan focuses on improving the customer experience with a resort style park, catering for all types of visitors throughout the entire year.
The recommendations in the plan include:
An improved entrance Overall landscaping and site restoration Mini golf course Jumping pillow New playground BBQ shelters and seating New amenities facility New accessible cabins Ensuite sites Safari tents Dormitory style accommodation for groups and schools New pathways and crossingsCouncil has allocated $454,500 in the proposed 2019-20 budget towards the improved entrance and landscaping works identified in the master plan. Across the first five years, a total of $2.7 million is estimated to be spent.
The investment is designed to maximise the park’s financial return and have a big impact on the look and overall functionality.
