I have heard the management at the Jurien Caravan Park are very rude with their patrons, has anyone have any comments about this, or is this not true?

Got this from the Australian Caravan Park report website
The most recent report is below, but you may like to view the earlier reports via that link.
" Friendly, helpful staff, clean park, recommended. Staff offered tourist advice, staff explained park layout and facilities. Price was as expected, good value for money ($23 2A powered). Amenity number was adequate to cope with the number of people, are close to all sites, were clean, condition is good, water pressure is good, there was adequate hot water. Adequate number of tourist sites, mostly level sites, good night lighting, average sized sites, drive-through sites. Basic laundry, good rec room. Quiet, open & roomy park, plenty of shade, family/friendly atmosphere. Excellent playground in good condition. No
pool.
Date 07/2006. Park Rating 4.5: Suitable for a week or more. "

Agree with Jack - were there in September 2006 and found staff very helpful and park as comfortable as expected in small village like town - unfortunately extremely windy when there and couldn't fish from the jetty as were almost blown away but still enjoyed our four days there.

Was there about 18 months ago and they were very helpfull - even lent us a matress at no cost when our air matress sprung a leak (now I have a camper trailer it's not an issue).
The only problem was they do pack everyone into the sites - but then it is popular.
Cervantes just down the road is less flash and not as crowded.

The report that member Jack posted looks like
mine from July last year. We lobbed there on a wet, rainy, windy day towing a camper trailer and ended up renting a cabin. The owner/manager couldn't have been more helpful, he was great, suggested
places for tea, drinks etc, absolutley no complaints about him whatsoever. I think he may have been Sth African by his accent, don't know whether he's the same one you're talking about.

They were great!! Spent a long weekend there a few months ago and had a ball, very helpful.
I believe they are both from Un Zed and very polite and friendly.
The huge inflatable was a trap though....really took the wind out of my sails trying to show the ten year olds up with my athletic prowess (or lack of).
Nice spot all in all.
Matt.

We were there July last year about the same time as the reply below I reckon as it was a wet and windy stay.
They were rude and aggressive towards us (sorry to be specific he was) when we reported the
camp kitchen cooker not working and no hot water. Basically told we did not know what we were talking about and of course they were working. He did not even bother to go and
check as we were camped just near it. It was the "far"
camp kitchen though and maybe a bit too far for him to walk.
Would return to the area though as we found it great as a base for
Pinnacles and
Stockyard Gully day trip. The river walk was great.
