O lugar é deslumbrante! Místico e bonito. Bom acesso ao lago, protegido por árvores. Cuidado, atualmente não há nenhum sinal indicando que é um acampamento, mas é de acordo com o DOC. É apenas difícil de encontrar... Toalete seco (sem água ou banheira), mas bom :) Também não tínhamos sinal / conexão com a internet em tudo. A estrada para cima é um longo caminho de barro com grandes buracos, às vezes inevitáveis, então um pouco difícil em caminhões...Nós gostamos de tudo, no entanto! As vistas e o silêncio valeram a pena :)

We were the only van when we arrived. You can’t park your car on the grass or you’ll get stuck, we tried and almost got stuck…. But we just parked on the side of the road, half on the grass, half on the road and it was perfectly fine. ? Another car parked at the front of the lake so it is still possible to stay there. Very basic doc toilet (hole in the ground). Definitely fine for a night. ?

It is a beautiful spot, but sort of flooded now, so there is only place for like 3 cars.. But still amazingly calm.

I was able to drive down and sleep for a night with no trouble or anyone else around. Hard to find the entrance to the campground and can be very muddy after rain. Not exactly sure where I was supposed to park but as no one else was around, it wasn't a problem

20/04/2022 It’s closed until further notice. We came here to find out.

Feels like home Whānau.

Beautiful spot right on the lake. Not marked on Google maps correctly but when it says you are almost there and you should make one last sharp turn, the turnoff is actually at the start of that turn on the left. Hard to see if you come in at night. But great spot!

Beautiful place right on the lake. Location not where Google says. Would be a left turn (coming from Wairoa side) in the middle of a bend, right across from the sign to the old maori trail track. Can even get some cell service and data (!) if youre close enough of the sign with the map of the lake...

Awesome campsite! Beautiful sunset and straight in front of the lake. Definitely recommend it. The only problem is the gravel road to get there.
