4.5/5
Really large campground with so much for kids to keep busy.
Multiple facilities which are new and well maintained.
Kids spent more time on the jumping pillow than spent off it. Price high at $25per adult but for value for money it's better than most and definitely worth staying.
Thank you Blair for your lovely review and for the 4.5 stars, we hope to see you all again soon

4.5/5
Huge campsite.
Sites for tents and campervans on big grassy fields. Like a park. One of their main amenities building burned down last year so the campervans were placed on the back two or three fields. Because it’s so big you’re walking a lot, but we liked the openness, space and the stuff for the kids. Some things that could be improved were the mediocre showers, the lack of enthusiasm by the staff and the 250 megabyte WiFi coupons (even though they were free for us as members, that’s really not necessary anymore folks).
Hi Chris I am sorry you did not think the staff were not enthusiastic, we work hard to create a welcoming experience for all. As of today we now have free Wifi for all guests

Much bigger park than expected!
Was there on a quiet cold night - great clean bathrooms with showers. Beautiful trees and lots of space. A bit pricey but worth the price.

3.5/5
Big park like space.
The staff had other campers allocated immediately next to us, even though there was acres around us. Now I know why people are so rude and camp right next to you in free camps 😳
Showers are on a timer and a bit fickle but they are clean

A very big campsite, all grass.
We had some nice nights here. Facilities are great, clean and big enough. Would recommend it.

4.5/5
Nice spot, but a bit too big and too far a way from the beach.
But still, everything was really clean and in a good condition.
You have to pay 5$ for wifi but the connection is pretty good.
A bit annoying the loud music in the kitchen and the bathroom.
Price is okay. 21$ non power

My husband, my son and I spent one night at this campsite.

2.5/5
Maybe good location in the good weather but we arrived on a rainy night.
Seemed like many long termers are using the site. Quite old facilities. Don't recommend for families with young kids... Too big a site and very dark so had to use the flashlight to go to the facilities though we parked nearest to them.

Paid $38 for a powered site for 2 people.
Solid holiday park, good for families. Reception was very limited. Had decent toilet and shower facilities. Free hot water. Campsite was reasonably spacious

Arrived around 3pm, large park with probably only 15 or so campervans.
Clean, large kitchen maybe 5 ranges and sinks aplenty. Bbq space also. Played mini golf for 4$ per person and it was a riot. Close to beach!

4.0/5
Very welcoming and clean campsite.
Good amount of room for each pitch on the whole, and hedging provides some privacy. Amenities aren't ground-breaking but are pretty good. One minor issue is that the shower/loo block appears to be a breeding ground for mosquitos - literally hundreds of them. Could do with one of those blue light things to kill them off. Would definitely stay here again.

Helpful friendly staff - had a 'duh' moment with the powercord and the staff came over to assist (even going back for a spare to test) and all this after closing time - this was much appreciated!
The grounds was boggy due to the rain (and staff was aware of this and shifted us to a 'drier' area - thank you!). I can this park can be good fun in good weather - the only reason we booked here was the range of activities that we could do/see (but we didn't as arrived too late and was raining). Bathroom and kitchen amenities are average - quite dated but clean. Would stay here again if we were in Chch.
