Discovery Parks - Casino

Discovery Parks – Casino: it’s like someone took a slice of the Australian dream and plopped between lush pastures and the Richmond River.

Not convinced? You've got National Parks in one direction and sparkling beaches in another. It's the kind of place where you suddenly become a morning person, just so you can see the mist rise off the river while you sip your morning cuppa.

If you've got the little ones with you, they'll be over the moon at the Platypus Pool. But here's the kicker, if you time your stay at Discovery Parks – Casino just right in May, you’ll hit Beef Week, a festival to sink your teeth into that’s part carnival, part agricultural show and a whole lot of local flair.
