McLaren Vale Lakeside Caravan Park

Fleurieu Peninsula


A short walk from town, this grassy park by an artificial lake sits at the affordable end of McLaren Vale's accommodation spectrum. There's a camp kitchen, pool, spa, tennis court and trashy book exchange. Good winter rates. The Shiraz Trail runs right past – on yer bike.
