Was in a campervan.

The cost of a powered site seemed quite cheap/reasonable. Bathroom and kitchen facilities were clean when I was there. Didn't notice traffic noise at all in the van. It's a good spot to stay the night before doing the Tongariro Alpine Crossing (depending how you are doing the hike). Go for a walk around the river as well.

An OK campsite.

Good service, big sites for the motorhome, but facilities weren’t really clean and at night a lot of heavy traffic passed by (the campsite is right next to SH1), which made it difficult for us to sleep.

Not as flash as I expected from the website.

It’s in need of some maintenance especially tennis court that has a tree growing over it! We stayed one night on an unpowered site - felt overpriced. Not much space and not v attractive but functional and clean. Best things were the bouncy pillow and hair straighteners in the ladies!

For $40 a night for two, including wifi.

Walk 10 metres if you can't get reception. Basic but good kitchen, comfortable lounge area, hot showers.

On a rainy night in Turangi we found this to be a perfect spot in our camper van. Not far from the shops and very central to town.

The spot for the camper van was nice but the amenities were definitely a little run down.

The kitchen was small and only had two stools for seating. The hang out area was decent size but felt used. Showers were fine. You can't get wifi at the camper van site even though they say it is available.

Nice enough spot as a stopover for Tongariro Crossing.

Free 1gb of internet but trying to connect was hit and miss. Showers, kitchen and lounge were all quite small and needed updating.

This park was clean and well maintained.

It is co-located with a motel of the same name so there are other facilities on site which you can use.

Even though it was Labour Weekend, it was not crowded. I never had to wait to use the kitchen or showers. The showers do not have a built-in seat, so I just brought in a plastic chair to keep my dry clothes from getting wet.

There is easy access to the other side of SH1 through a pedestrian underpass so you can go get groceries, find a restaurant, or get information on activities.

This is actually a very solid spot and compared to other sites nearby probably best.

It is not state of the art but not completely run down. Toilets and showers were all clean and the kitchen had everything we needed (2 stoves, microwave, water heater, toaster...).

Additionally there is a restaurant near to the place which looked nice but we did not try. Swimming pool, clean BBQ, trampoline and even a sauna (also did not use). We were given a 300mb Internet voucher at the beginning and the staff was friendly.

The place is located at the road close to i-site, petrol station and burger king. This does give you some noise but not comparable to one directly to the highway. Because of location and age, we give the site an 8. Not the best place we had, but definitely a stop if you are driving through or waiting for trail weather. And: we only paid $34 on a powered site. As I said, solid but not luxury
