Nice scenery and vibes at the campsite. Great hot shower and toilet facilities, including sink to wash your dishes. However, a few campers played loud music until 1-2am, which made it a bit harder to sleep. If you need quiet for sleep, try to avoid parking downhill from the toilets by the boat ramp. The final stretch of road to the campsite is also very gravelly with sheep and small animals (hedgehogs) so be cautious when driving through, especially at night
Great spot, with a hot free shower. Camping 12$/night. No phone reception. The last ~15/20km are through a gravel road in a private farm with stock wandering
Amazing remote and serene lake to camp at with hot showers! Road to travel there is a bit scary with sheer cliffs so take your time. We saw atleast 8 animal species on the way in at dark just free range all over the place. Phone reception with skinny but not 2 degrees. Loved kayaking in the lake under native trees and we cooked eel on the fires that were already there. We walked to the dam and the kids loved the huge dead eel floating around. Lots of space for our badminton set, hammock and swings available. Gorgeous waterfall. Lots of fish in the lake great for kids to be kids.
Awesome spot only able to stay one night but would stay longer next time. Flush toilet and hot shower. A bit of a drive to get there but well worth the effort. Top marks taranaki.
Wow! Great value for money! Flush toilets, hot shower, rubbish bins. Beautiful lake. Great water skiing. Totally worth the drive. What a gem of a place.
Magical. Alone. Remote. Beautiful. Straightforward but exceptionally well maintained amenities. If you donโt do isolation or austerity, this is not for you. Youโll wake up to cows, walk across the site amidst sheep dung. As I said, beautiful.
Beautiful camping experience. Warm lake for swimming. Gorgeous views
Fantastic campsite. Lots of space and hot showers. The toilets are also very clean. It was just not clear who you had to pay. And the way there is a gravel road.
Fantastic! Best Campground I've ever seen. 10$ is absolutely fine. There's no phone reception but you definitely don't need it. There are plenty fire pits. Theres also the lake where you can swim and fish eel or just bring your own boat. The facilities are very clean and there are free unlimited hot showers. Plus the water is potable without boiling before.
Wow magical. Very friendly custodian. Very clean facilities. Great bush walk across the Dam. Price has gone up to $10 per night and worth every cent
