We arrived around 19.00 and got a nice spot, even though we didn't book upfront.
The ladies that welcomed us were very friendly and gave us some tips about what to do and see. Facilities are very clean.
The farmers market is very nice to go to at sunday morning. And after that you can have a drink at the brewery nearby. Lovely city!

Nice flat site beside the Oamaru Gardens.
15 minute walk to town through the gardens. Facilities clean, bathroom heated. Did hear the trains a few times during the night. Plenty of activities here for children and a playground down the road. $50 per night for 2 on powered site.

The positives....Lovely surroundings and location right next to beautiful gardens and children’s playground.
Very nice 20 min walk to town. Friendly helpful staff. Free DVD loans. Mini golf was great, tricky and each hole has a local theme. Lovely hot showers. Kitchen clean and adequate. Free BBQs. Kangaroo jump and tramp were great. Clean bathrooms that seemed a bit warmer and more modern than others we’ve come across. One negative was the trains in the night but fine once you know what they are. We stayed an extra night.

Reasonable services, kitchen/toilet block has recently been refurbished.
DVD library to borrow a movies for the night was a nice touch. Location was a 10min walk from shops but had noise from heavy vehicles through the night. It was OK for the price.

Great campsite with all the usual amenities and then some.
The staff were friendly and helpful, the grounds were well maintained. The bathrooms seem to have been recently renovated so are very modern and clean, my only complaint would be that there are only two showers and two toilets per bathroom which isn’t much for such a large campground.

It’s right next to a peaceful public gardens, perfect for a stroll. They have private jacuzzi tubs you can rent for $10, perfect on a cold day. Facilities are clean big. Will stay again!

Hi Ben & Liv
Thank you for your feed back. We are delighted you enjoyed your stay with us & found the staff helpful. Yes our ablutions are at a very high standard they are used as an example for other parks to view for ideas before doing their up grades. The Gardens are amazing with all the Monarch Butterflies at the moment. Glad you enjoyed your stay

Arrived without reservation but no problem despite the Blues &Jazz festival that weekend.
Nice stroll through the park into town late afternoon but walked back along the road after dark as the park was not lit. Used the showers. Only stayed one night.
