BIG4 Adventure Whitsunday Resort has been owned and operated by the McKinnon family since 1993. The property was purchased as a run-down but operational caravan park and since then has seen a phenomenal transformation to the 4.5 star multi-award winning resort that it is today.

Everything guests experience, from the 45 self-contained cabins to the landscaped sites, resort-style pool, waterslides, mini-golf and even the outdoor cinema, have been projects developed by the McKinnon family, with the goal to create a resort-style tourist park that is a destination in its own right. This is evident in its win of an Australian Tourism Award for Tourist and Caravan Parks (and several the Queensland and Whitsunday Tourism Awards), and consumer awards including the recent ‘Holidays with Kids’ Top 3 Holiday Parks, the ‘Out and About With Kids’ Top 3 Australian Family Holiday Parks and ‘Australian Traveller’ Reader’s Choice.
