Not overly impressed with the place especially the annoying showers.
Was a bit of a walk to bathroom on the night. Weird lay out

It's a funny camping ground....
we kinda felt like we were intruding into someone's private holiday. Just had that kind of vibe. Facilities were in need of a really good clean - the bathrooms and toilets were particularly bad, we didn't venture into the kitchen. I probably wouldn't come back

My husband and I spent our first night at the Sandspit campground, which was an easy and pretty drive from Auckland.
The camp was very quiet and we were given a waterfront powered site. This campsite is really a little community; it has a village feel with buildings established around the yesteryear. There is so much memorabilia around the buildings you can spend a good hour exploring. The waterway is tidal, so as with the tides in many parts of NZ you can go from a beach to a big sand/mud flat. My one big hint from this place is go for a walk at low tide around the peninsula (so to the right of the park facing the water). You will come across what looks like volcanic mud pools and a feast of oysters; don’t forget an oyster chucker! So put this altogether with bathrooms that are the best I have had in NZ (to date), this campsite has spoilt us from the get go; this place is gold.

This is a fantastic place.
Very good facilities, there are even ovens! We were in a self contained cabin. It cost us $110 but the cabin was worth the money! It is an half our drive to Goat Island beach.

Lovely family-friendly campsite.
Stayed for one night in our motorhome, great laundry, great cooking facilities, great toilet/showers. Lots of kiwis here for the weekend with boats etc, boat park also. Worth stopping off at, we also had a look around nearby Warkworth the following day, a quiet town with lovely shops.

Nice camping close to Sandspit Wharf.
Seems to be really big but was not so busy when we where there. Too bad the Pioneer Village is not looked after because it looks really nice.

New and very clean facilities, 3 family showers, big kitchen and barbeque with equipment, tv and playroom for kids, trampoline, kayaks for free during high tide, children under 2 are free of charge, some
campsites are a bit small and there are duck excrements in the grass, not so good if you have children or like to go barefoot - a very good family holiday park in this price category.

Great if you fancy the most UNFRIEDLY management with absolutely NO customer service skills, OLD CABINS, SMELLING LIKE CORPS, WITH HOLES IN FLOORS AND WALLS you can see through.
EXTREMLY OVERPRICED, VERY POOR CONDITIONS. That's all we could notice during the 5 minutes we stayed there; we left for another accommodation without even looking back.
