    We stayed here one night on our way back to Christchurch. We found it to be a well appointed stop. Best showers we experienced in the South Isand nz, nightly rate for a motorhome was also cheap. Amenities were clean and kitchen area although gets busy accommodation 3 groups cooking at a time, it’s pretty well equipped with cooking utensils and also has a sandwich press which was great. Bbq area looked very inviting, however we didn’t have anything to cook on it. We loved the complete privacy.

    Not bad place if u need a stopover before returning to christchurch.. hedge on both sides gives you full privacy. Showers were old & clean with spider webs in hidden spots.. desperately need deep cleaning.. lots of dead mosquitoes on bathroom bench.. a bit scary coz i think only few sites were occupied when we stayed.. barbecue area bins were overflowing with rubbish .. sadly, wifi didn’t work at all Phone signal was fine

    Needed somewhere to stay for a night inbetween Tekapo & Akaroa and so stopped here. $37pn for a solo with a small van for a powered site is pretty steep, up there with the most I’ve paid in 3 months in NZ! The sites themselves are nicely sheltered by bushes either side. But the facilities feel a little old & uncared for. The bathroom sinks were full of dust & dirt that had come through the vents! The shower floor was a little the same though the water was hot. Feels overpriced for what it is

    Great campground for our last night before heading to Christchurch. Lots of space, privacy, shadow. Facilities such as toilets, hot showers, kitchen clean. Didn't need to wait for anything. Super friendly staff. We even played mini golf. Lots of bins for recycling your rubbish. Would recommend!

    Excellent place to stay for holiday or couple of days. We were passing through on our way home and unfortunately only stayed 1 night. Clean, tidy, well maintained and well run. Facilities are checked and cleaned regularly throughout the day. Staff extremely helpful. Would definitely come back.

    Fab spot, nice shady pitches, hot showers, and excellent activities for family. Excellent first stop on the southern route.
