The unanimous decision was made during a council meeting on October 5, 2023, marking a significant step towards enhancing tourism facilities in the region.
The approved development plans include the construction of additional cabins designed to provide visitors with a unique and comfortable stay, catering to the increasing demand for holiday accommodation in the area.

The Livingstone Shire encompasses picturesque landscapes and a range of recreational opportunities, making it a desirable destination for both domestic and international tourists. With the recent approval, the Coolwaters Holiday Village is set to enhance its offerings, providing guests with modern amenities and an inviting atmosphere.
The council’s decision reflects ongoing efforts to invest in infrastructure that supports local tourism and economic growth. By increasing the number of available cabins, the Livingstone Shire aims to accommodate a larger number of guests, especially during peak holiday seasons.
As the project moves forward, the council will oversee the development process to ensure compliance with local regulations and environmental guidelines. This initiative is a part of a broader strategy to not only improve visitor experiences but also to promote responsible tourism practices in the region.
The Livingstone Shire Council is optimistic about the potential impact of this development, viewing it as a vital step towards revitalizing the local economy through increased tourist engagement.
