Someone please correct me if i am wrong but I was under the impression 2013 freedom pass holders were supposed to get the the station on a discounted rate. From $79 for six people per room per night.
My mate is booking some accommodation for us and was told that we are to pay the same price as everyone and that it was only for 2 people and it was $29 per person per night for each additional.
Are perisher up to the same old tricks again?

Yes you should get a discount being freedom pass members (I’ve booked multiple dates) You simply mention you have a freedom pass when booking via phone.
Depending on how far out you are booking and how busy they are does effect the price though. I booked last year and got $79 for weekdays $119ish I think for weekends

My biggest problem is only knowing last minute when I can make the trip down, I’ll tell my mate what you said.
Cheers DRC..

Yep you will often find even the station is hard to get into for a last minute booking peak season hense the prices ramp up.
They should be able to give your mate a set list of prices for weekdays/weekends though as they definitely gave me them last year under the proviso they will go up closer to the date.
I’ve booked my definite days and just wing the other dates that I want to go down there and hope for the best.
Have you stayed in the cabins at the caravan park?
Personally I haven’t, Generally I’ve ended up at the station as someone else has had a booking that we could squeeze in on.
If I get completely stuck I will probably sleep in the car. Chances are I’d cough up the money for a non powered site at the caravan park so I have toilet/shower facilities
Even for Freedom Pass holders, prices at The Station rise as you get closer to the date, and also as room bookings increase. If you want $79 rooms, you have to get in quick. We had 25 nights booked there last year - all $79 per room, per night.
Stay in your car, wash in the river. At bullocks flat.

I’ve considered that as well considering I’d be catching the tube in the morning anyway. For the sake of `$30 I don’t want to be paranoid about security kicking me out in the middle of the night and I hadn’t noticed a nearby river to bath in (I’m a bit of a clean freak so need my 99 showers/day)
I’m restricted to areas outside of the NP as I don’t have an AWD or chains.
DRC there is always space in the bed next to me… shame I only date men who are willing to travel to the inner city!

orly??.... shower included?
who said anything about dating?....
Just a heads up, My physio spoke to Perisher today and even though in the emails it states the final Freedom Pass payments are being deducted tomorrow, they arent actually taking any cash until the 2nd apparently
I recently read an article about free camping in Australia and the different state laws.
To put it very simply security wont kick you out, they can’t because your not doing anything wrong.

Bags not being the one to explain to my parent we aren’t dating in the morning!

Does that include the tube overnight carpark? I’d heard you can get away with it but it isn’t strictly legit. Honestly the van park cost wouldn’t bother me but always nice to have alternative options.

fine! Back to the river then….
A teacher I work with keeps telling me I can have dinner/crash at her families place in Jindy but her Mum is the boss at one of my other schools so I haven’t resorted to that yet.

Sucks to be you…
Nice long hot showers for me!
