Discovery Parks - Mildura, Buronga Riverside

Discovery Parks - Mildura, Buronga Riverside sits directly on the Murray River in Buronga, a short drive across the bridge from Mildura, and keeps a genuine set of pet-friendly cabins and sites rather than treating dogs as an afterthought.

The pet policy. Dogs are allowed in select accommodation only, not park-wide. The Superior 2 Bedroom Cabin (sleeps 4) is the named pet-friendly cabin option, and it comes with its own enclosed, secure outdoor space. Pet-friendly powered and unpowered sites are also available. Book the pet-friendly option specifically and early, since these are limited and go under separate terms and conditions to standard sites. Confirm exact fees and any weight or breed conditions at booking, as these weren't listed on the park's public pages.

The rules. Dogs must stay on a leash throughout the park's common areas and footpaths. Owners are expected to clean up after their dogs. There's no confirmed off-leash area on site, so plan on leashed walks within the park itself.

The place. It's a spacious riverfront caravan park with grassed areas running down to the Murray, a camp kitchen, pools, and large sites that suit vans and trailers. Riverbank walking tracks run right from the park, and black swans and ducks are a regular sight along the water.

Getting there. The park is on Caravan Park Road, off the Sturt Highway (A20) in Buronga, about a 10-15 minute drive from central Mildura. Parking at sites and cabins is ample.

Nearby with the dogs. Mildura's fenced off-leash dog park at Rio Vista Park (Hugh King Drive) has separate large-dog and small-dog enclosures with water and shade, and it's on the Mildura side of the river, about 10-15 minutes away. Mildura also has a handful of dog-friendly cafes and restaurants across the bridge for a coffee stop after the walk.

Before you book. Confirm the pet fee and any per-stay limits directly with the park, since published information covers which accommodation allows dogs but not a fixed dollar figure. Bring your own bedding and bowls, and expect to keep your dog leashed anywhere outside your own site or cabin.
