Quiet and clean.

Has a quirky bathroom setup in a caravan which was spotless the entire 5 days I camped there. Bryce, the camp manager is very welcoming and has a wealth of knowledge regarding the local history. He is also a bit of a jack of all trades and very kindly did a repair to my vehicle. Prices are low; $15 per night in a safe environment.

The camp is perfectly situated for my needs, it’s at the gateway to the Far North, is close to a decent sized town (Kaitaia) and is a hop, skip and jump away from KareKare Peninsula, Taiapa and Cable Bay.

I will be back; it’s the perfect place for all my Far North adventures.

Awesome campground with lovely manager!

The black camper with toilet and shower in it is spaceous and cool! Only downsite is that there's just the one and the light in it stopped working during the night. Not sure if they're solar powered and out of power or we just didnt find the light switch.

Amazing little place, we turned up after dark and the owner lives on site so just came straight out, didn't have cash so did a bank transfer, so easy and super affordable compared to other places - places

charge more that don't have a flushing toilet or hot shower. Just one toilet and shower inside a converted caravan, really quirky. Hot shower is great. We were the only people staying so had it to ourselves, loved it. Owner was really nice. Wish there were more places like it!

This was one of the best campsites I've stayed at in 5 months.

Bryce (the owner) is incredibly helpful and just super nice. It’s a basic campsite with one flush toilet and one shower. As others have written, the shower in particular is incredibly good (hot shower with great water pressure). Good reception is available and the sky by night is just fantastic. I can only recommend it to everyone!

Stayed here for almost 5 weeks because of work nearby and it felt like home immediately. But it’s also a great location for just a few nights as Cape Reinga is only 1h up north.

Again, thank you for everything Bryce!

Found this place heading up to the cape.

We had the field all to our selves. Clean toilet and decent hot shower. Manager very friendly. This place is brilliant for the cost.

We stayed at this campsite for an extended period, and it truly became a home away from home.

The owner is incredible friendly and accommodating, making our stay even more enjoyable. The campsite is spacious, well-maintained, and offers a fantastic hot shower that was always clean. It is clear that a lot of care and effort go into maintaining this place. This is undoubtedly one of the best campsites we have ever stayed at. Highly recommended!

Amazing manager of the campsite!

The campsite is very simple and has everything you would need: hot shower and a bathroom.

We got stuck on the way and arrived quite late but were accepted no problem. And the lights in the campsite turn off during the night, we saw the best night sky in NZ so far.

All in all: amazing value.

Out in the middle of nowhere, it's a no-frills piece of pure heaven.

If you're looking for peace and quiet, with nothing but the Bush and stars for company, this is the place for you. If you're looking for luxury... nope. Although the shower facility is kind of neat.

Very good and cheap place to stay, hot shower, close to the amazing gumdiggers park (worth it).

Quiet during the night and nice and helpful owner.

We’ll come again when we are around.
