About Us

Lake Placid Rainforest Retreat is set amongst 14 acres of tropical rainforest and is arguably one of the most pristine caravan parks in the Cairns region. Located far enough away from the Cairns CBD to be in a quiet and relaxing location, yet close enough to be within easy reach of all that the Cairns city has to offer.

Our caravan park is adjacent to the cool, crystal clear waters of Lake Placid (at the base of the world heritage Barron River Gorge National Park).  Located near Cairns city, the park is central to the main tourist attractions such as Cairns Skyrail, the Kuranda Scenic Railway and Cairns’ northern beaches. It is the perfect place for a relaxing holiday and pets are welcome too.

Our caravan park offers caravan and tent sites as well as budget or luxury cabins. We have the perfect holiday accommodation to suit every possible taste and budget. Choose between an array of ensuite, powered caravan and camping sites with the option of sun or shade.

Our Park Managers, Mike & Sue, will welcome you upon arrival and ensure that you feel at home and are set for a wonderful stay with us.

Our tour desk is full of amazing adventures around Cairns and surrounds, should you wish to explore the many and varied activities that are only minutes away from the park! Our team have exceptional knowledge and first hand experience in all tours and can tailor the perfect adventure package for you.
