3.0/5
Very basic site but was ideal for stopping before heading to Milford Sound the next morning.
Toilets really weren’t nice though - they smelt really bad. Expected more for $15 each.

Beautiful place, simple but good.
Toilet (no sink), bbq, picnic tables and very nice views. Not busy almost feels like you have the place to yourself.

4.0/5
May 2017 Kiosk Creek campsite is in the Eglinton River valley on the Milford Road.
The mist hangs low over the river and settled heavily with very cold, damp air as the sun was going down. This was the coldest night we felt in the campervan. Mountains, stars and solitude. Plenty of room for camping and vans, drop toilet was clean. It was just over an hour to Milford, so a perfect overnight spot to get you closer to the first boat cruises of the morning.

Excellent large, grassy and quiet spots for tents and watching the sun go down behind mountains.
Clean toilets when we were there.

3.5/5
Nice place, basic but beautiful view.
It is just one hours drive from/to Milford Sound. No early wake up to get the first boat/cruise!!
