4.5/5
Highly recommend this campsite.
The kitchen facilities are definitely the best we have experienced (Europe or New Zealand). Lounge has loads of comfy seats, a great place to relax or have a chat with fellow travellers.

Friendly people and a very good recreation hall and kitchen.
Everything was clean, sanitation and showers also good and clean.
Small Terrain for tents, gras and not rocky.

Large comfortable lounge area with sofas well equipped kitchen with cutlery, crockery, pots n pans, ovens, toasters, microwave and rice cooker!
Dining area as well.
Clean showers and toilets housed within motel block so no issues with weather.
Powered sites are rather basic more like a carpark.

We met great people here in the shared kitchen, but otherwise wish we hadn’t stopped in Haast.
This was our initial introduction to sandflies, and it was pretty bad. There was a friendly mouse who scampered through the kitchen, but otherwise facilities were clean, just very basic. Another camper held up the shower for a good 15+ minutes with a queue forming and didn’t seemed bothered one bit. Bummer for rude campers.

No complaints here.
Very clean modern facilities. I was able to park my van next to a grassy strip. No sandflies either.

Really nice camping!
I absolutely don’t understand why that place doesn’t a better note, because it’s really nice! The kitchen is super clean and have all the gear you would need. The commun area is huge with a lot of place to chill. There is bathroom and showers for men and women separate, and they seems brand new! They is some site that are small, but there is other with grass spot and picnic table. We were there on a rainy day with our baby and it was perfect! Staff is super friendly! I highly recommend, a lot more that the next one with the super grumpy owner

This place is a good spot to stop between Wanaka and the Westcoast.
It's not romantic but functional. Nothing wrong with it. It's been 21 $ for a powered site and one person. Facilities very clean, showers don't cost extra (5 min for free).

2 in motorhome powered site $40.80 inc 80c fee for credit card.

Didn’t use the kitchen or lounge but they looked good.
Loos and showers ok. No lock on one male loo cubicle door. No hair dryer.
Small area for tents.
Ok for stopover.

My husband and I stayed here for one night in late June and we were pleasantly surprised how nice this facility was after reading earlier reviews.
The woman at reception was kind and friendly. It was $36 for the two of us to tent camping and we were the only ones this time of year so we had our choice of tent spot. We chose one of the grassy locations as many spots were gravel, which is not as nice. The kitchen was great, clean and had everything we needed. The lounge was also nice, and we were able to make a cozy fire in the woodstove to warm up before our cold tent. They had a good book exchange collection as well.

A really great lodge area with a great kitchen and lounge.
The bathrooms were a bit old but clean. The sites were gravel but a bit muddy and uneven. No playground but a good spot to pull in for a nights rest.

Nice owner how helped us out when we had a little incident with our vehicle.
Campsite is more like a parking lot but it has a big common room with a fire place, books and a well equipped kitchen. Half of the toilets and showers were closed due to maintenance but for winter time it were enough. Beware that there is no cell phone connection or wifi within 200 km up the coast.

We had to stop by Haast for a night as it was getting late.
We paid $40 for a powered site and another $6 for WiFi of 300mb for 2 devices. There was totally no signal in that area. And we had no choice but to buy some instant food from their shop as the whole town has no shop open at that time. (It was only 8pm). Kitchen and lounge are spacious and clean. There are cooking utensils available to use as well. You also have to pay 50cents for 7 minutes of hot water.

New owners, very enthusiastic, fantastic facilities, off the main road, so quiet and peaceful, great place to stop after mountain drive coming North.

It's just a parking spot in front of the hostel so quite expensive for that and the shower costs extra money.
