Get your self a copy of the Victoria Cabin, Caravan, and Camping Guide which is available from Parks Victoria for free; or go to their website and look at the parks in the area (see the link below).

Re the specific parks, there are eight with a pool in the High Country, and seven of those have a playground as well.
Check:

Painters Island Caravan Park - Wangaratta
Wangaratta CaravanPark - Wangarata
Bright Pine Valley Tourist Park - Bright
Bright & Districts Caravan Park - Bright
Porepunkah Bridge Caravan Park - Porepunkah
Porepunkah Mill Holiday Park - Porepunkah
Porepunkah Pines Tourist Resort - Porepunkah

There are another eleven parks if you want to go to Lake Eildon and surrounds.

Blue Gums is great out of town 4ks, river near by for a fish, it runs abit quick for young ones to swim but I think it has a pool. Stayed there when the big fire hit and they were great with 4 hourl updates which some feel safe and other rushing off to check their properties. Eildon has a good pub, with good meals, plenty of shops for the wives to brouse as well.

Fishing for trout in the pondage can be good at times. There is a tackle shop and bait.

The trips towards jamieson are great and around the banks of the dam are good tracks as well - best to get a map of the district, and book early!!!!
