FHGC $4,900,000
Business Description
The Dalrymple Van park is a large and well located tourist park located in the heart of Queenslands' northern gold-rush town of Charters Towers. Featuring 88 sites with approval to 106, the park is a mixture of powered, unpowered, Cabins, and Van sites, all laid out across a level and exceptionally well maintained and grassy landscape.
Visitors can enjoy the peaceful surroundings of the park, as well as the historical charm and attractions of Charters Towers, such as the Gold Rush era sites, making it an ideal stop for exploring the local history and natural beauty of the area.
The park is just a short walk into town and just an hours 'drive to the dynamic and thriving northern powerhouse of Townsville (pop. Circa 200k). Situated adjacent to the towns golf course, the Dalrymple is the most centrally located of the towns parks, and provides easy access throughout the spacious sites, and very large and well maintained camp kitchen, communal Fire Pit, BBQ areas, and well-utilised kids playground.
With its family-friendly environment, Dalrymple Van Park provides a strong and growing annual return, with scope to grow further through addition of extra cabins and further marketing. This is a wonderful opportunity to acquire a high performing park in a strong region, and within a market of diminishing quality caravan park stock.
