BIG4 Red Cliffs Holiday Park – Your Sunraysia Home Base

BIG4 Red Cliffs Caravan Park, Your Sunraysia & Murray River Oasis

Discover a tranquil, palm-fringed oasis in the heart of Victoria’s Sunraysia region at the BIG4 Red Cliffs Caravan Park. This award-winning park offers a peaceful and friendly country atmosphere, making it the perfect base for exploring the vibrant city of Mildura, the majestic Murray River, and the area’s rich agricultural and historical attractions. Set amidst beautifully landscaped gardens, the park provides a relaxing and well-equipped haven for families, couples, and travellers seeking a comfortable stopover on the journey between Melbourne and Adelaide.

The park is renowned for its immaculate presentation and excellent family-friendly facilities. The centrepiece is a stunning, solar-heated resort-style swimming pool, perfect for cooling off under the warm Sunraysia sun. Kids will be entertained for hours with the adventure playground and the huge, colourful jumping pillow. The park offers a wide range of accommodation to suit every need, from spacious, grassy powered and unpowered sites, including convenient drive-through options for an easy setup, to a variety of modern, self-contained cabins. As a proudly pet-friendly park, your four-legged friends are welcome to join you on your adventure in the designated pet-friendly sites and cabins.

From this peaceful base, the best of the Mildura region is at your fingertips. Take a short drive to see “Big Lizzie,” the giant tractor that cleared much of the local Mallee scrub, or explore the dramatic scenery of the Red Cliffs Scenic Reserve. The park is an ideal launchpad for a day trip to the historic Port of Mildura to ride a paddle steamer, or to explore the otherworldly landscapes of the Perry Sandhills and Mungo National Park. After a day of sightseeing, return to the park’s serene environment, enjoy a BBQ in the camp kitchen, and relax by the pool. For a holiday that combines family fun with regional exploration, the BIG4 Red Cliffs Caravan Park is a true Sunraysia gem.
