Our first night in a tent in New Zealand. It couldn't have been better. We were welcomed warmly. It was really lovely.

Truly a hidden gem between the green hills of Raglan! Very warm welcome in this small eco-friendly paradise 🌞 Would definitely recommend!!

This place is incredible. The owners set out to build a sustainable community in harmony with the land and they succeeded. My wife and I car camped here two nights and it was a wonderfully healing experience. The remoteness and thriving bush of the Waikato Ranges is breathtaking and yields unmatched views of the stars at night. 10min from Bridal Veil Falls, 30 from Raglan and other West Coast beaches, and easy to get to. Comfortable amenities while feeling off grid. We plan to return ASAP!

Really nice small-scale place run by dedicated people! You also get to learn something rg environment, plants etc. Don't forget to walk the beautiful scenic track, just 40 min return. Clean non smelling toilets. Hot shower. Possibility to charge your stuff. Excellent phone signal (spark).

Such a magical place! Would recommend it a thousand times. Ecological way of life, beautiful nature, peaceful environment and warm people. There’s toilets and an outdoor hot shower, an area for creation, an area for sitting and playing and a BBQ area. All with a roof and can be used in raining days also. Everything is clean and welcoming. Had such a great experience for the last 3 days. Would sure come back. Thanx🩷☮️🧚🌻

Really nice retreat. Extremely peaceful and relaxing. The people who live there are really nice and are clearly very passionate about what they're doing, but will also leave you to it whilst you get on with your day. There are also some nice walks from the campsite, hot showers, BBQ, washing area and the most odourless and clean composting toilet I've ever witnessed

Beautiful and peaceful place, great kind people, very clean and tidy. Best place in raglan!

Beautiful spot to camp up for a while. Close to Raglan and the surfing beaches but nestled away in the beautiful hills with beautiful little hikes through the bush and down to a wonderful estuary.

I can not rate this place more! Superb facilities, super welcoming people and such an awesome Vibe and energy to the whole place! The bathrooms were clean and well maintained, the camping grounds are super accessible and extremely well set up for quiet individuals right through to family groups, and the bush walks around the property and down to the river are just perfect. We just spent two nights at Hakea with the dog and we were absolutely dreading our departure. Such a cool hidden gem!

Very welcoming with outdoor covered spaces to relax in and an amazing example of pretty much all the permaculture practices being implemented. The good energy you feel walking around the grounds in your bare feet is palpable. A 15 minute hike down the hill and you come to the most amazing estuary--mud flats for kms at low tide, 6 hrs later all filled in with a nice swimming hole.
