4.5/5
We ended up in this site by accident but loved it.
It is basic but super clean. The caretakers do an amazing job. Most of the other vans were there for the season and as we were mid week they were empty. We were one of only 3 occupied. It’s a fisherman’s camp and the only negative were the local fisherman going to and from the river by quad bike.

Its a bit out if the way but affordable and quiet.
The river runs along the beach with plenty of trout and is rather scenic. Large open area with a cool park for the kiddos to play next to the huts

2.0/5
Nice spot albeit pretty remote (20 mins off the main road) and it seems you only go here if you want to fish.
There were quad bikes zooming around after 9pm and again at 6am which was annoying as we had young kids trying to sleep. Main gripe is that we were overcharged - should have been $15 for a non powered site but we were charged $21. Only realised after we’d left and it’s too far out the way for us to return for a refund.

Sorry, this was not for us.
No trees or privacy or a feel of your own little corner. Didn't look at facilities as we are self contained. I can see that it is a great spot for fisherman and it had it's own little atmosphere. Long may New Zealand continue to have it's beach communities.
