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.

Loved this park.
Friendly people, clean facilities, and Geraldine is a nice little town. Good coffee and cake at walking distance (Barker’s, must try). Cheese too, if you’re into that. Campervan, family with kids (2, 4).

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.

Our last night camping in New Zealand was at the nicest campsite!
Honestly the best place we stayed in 5 weeks in New Zealand. This place is immaculate, big trees, clean facilities top to bottom, and a short walk into town. Friendly staff, reasonable price.

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.

We had a great experience here.
The hosts were very helpful and most accommodating. We accidently left an item behind, they searched for it and then posted it to us - fantastic. Park and facilities are clean and well appointed with a very relaxed atmosphere. Just a 2 minute walk to the town centre. Hhighly recommend a stay here.

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.

Very nice place.
All Top 10 classics as usual. And little public pool across the street.
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!!
