Your readers may have noticed the current media blitz from Reflections Holiday Parks in relation to the construction currently underway in the southern end of the Terrace caravan park in Brunswick Heads.
They are replacing 27 camping sites with ten fixed glamping tents. During the planning of these works, Reflections had the opportunity for a big win with the community.
They have chosen not to take that win. In planning the location of the glamping tents, they could have placed them such that we could finally have a public walkway along the edge of this part of Simpsons Creek, joining with the walking track towards the bowls club, and giving us an almost complete unfettered public walkway along the foreshore from Ferry Reserve to the Brunswick Heads Bowling Club.
They are well aware that this would have brought them a ton of goodwill.
The community has been fighting for this for almost 30 years. Such a shame that Reflections, the managers of our Crown land, decided against it. And to make matters worse, plans on their website show the area will be completely fenced in thereby limiting public access to this ecologically significant and historic area.
