"We have had final approval from the Board to proceed, so it’s now a race against time to try and get them in to keep up with our guest demands," Mr Edmonds said.
"This is great news for our inland country parks where visitors and surrounding communities depend on this fuel availability.
"We are putting pressure on ourselves to bring back new and improved fuel supply services and will be excited to share more about how the guest experience will be improved once design solutions are decided on."
Since the closure of the fuel service stations at the affected parks, the Reflections Group has also been working hard on a temporary fuel storage solution for guests and visitors. Affected parks will have the capability to store and decant limited quantities of fuel that guests bring in from next Saturday, 28 July 2018.
The Reflections park, at Mookerawa Waters in Stuart Town NSW, will also have a fuel storage facility for guests from this date.
Mr Edmonds stressed that the affected parks only had a limited capacity to store guest’ fuel and advised people to ring parks prior to their visit to check remaining storage availability.
"We are strongly encouraging people to refuel their cars and boats prior to arriving at the parks, however they will now have the option to store a limited amount of fuel at the parks should they need to.
"This helps minimise the inconvenience of our group-wide safety initiative of discontinuing the practice of guests bringing their own fuel and decanting it themselves within the parks."
The NSW Crown Holiday Parks Land Manager manages the operations of 37 holiday parks and public recreational reserves on Crown land throughout NSW. Formed in 2013 to consolidate the operations of 28 coastal and nine inland holiday parks and reserves located on Crown land throughout NSW, the Group incorporated three holiday park brands under its corporate banner, (North Coast Holiday Parks, South Coast Holiday Parks and Inland Waters Holiday Parks).
Rebranded to Reflections Holiday Parks in February 2018, the Group brings its 37 holiday parks and public recreation reserves on Crown land under the one unified banner.
The group is a not-for-profit organisation and reinvests its surpluses across all of its parks and public recreational reserves, so visitors and regional communities can keep enjoying these pristine locations. The Group’s surpluses also cross subsidise its nine inland parks and reserves and help keep country communities and visitors enjoying these precious community assets.
The vision of Reflections Holiday Parks is to inspire all who visit.
