    Fantastic campsite.

    Stayed in a powered site with a motorhome for 1 night (2 adults) - good value for money compared to places we've stayed before. Big and spacious campsite with brilliant toilets and hot showers (they are free but on 6 minute timers). Didn't use the kitchen or laundry facilities but they looked good. Pleasant staff and everything was well maintained and immaculate. Would definitely stay again.

    This Top 10 Park is exactly what I look forward to when looking for a place to camp for a night or a week.

    The park has manicured grass, abundance of trees and nice flat, level gravel parking spaces. There is a picnic table and plenty of room between sites. The facilities are very clean and kitchen is spacious. Town is within walking distance as well as several attractions. The camp hosts are present and very helpful. The price is one of the most reasonable we’ve stayed at over our 6 weeks traveling.

    Superb campsite on a lovely setting.

    Great showers, kitchen and laundry with communal washing line. Owners really helpful. It was a lovely place to rest after our climb up to the Mueller hut. We took the opportunity of visiting there Geraldine Observatory during our stay and that was also a great experience. Geraldine is a delightful town and we'd highly recommend Verde's for coffee, breakfast, lunch ... Sadly not open on the evenings.

    We found this camp very clean and tidy, well signed, child friendly and managers accomadating, considering we arrived late (after hours).

    The book exchange, free food that has been left, the availability of cooking essentials was all very convienant. The rooms were new, linen clean, heaters adequant, and overall we were very impressed. We would reccommend this camp to anyone and would use it again.

    Two especially positives to mention:

    1. very nice friendly staff, that helped us a lot, when the road closures due to flooded Rangitata River occurred. Thanks again!

    2. the best dumping station ever, with water hose and gray water hose already in place. Just plug and play :D Nothing to be taken out of our Van. Great thing!!

Mais trop vent ce soir là donc nous avons fini dans un "cabin" . Très propre et spacieux, avec chauffage et rideaux, par contre pas de couverture. À vous de prévoir.
