Moeraki Village Holiday Park
3.5/5
The facilities are perfectly adequate.
For kids, there is a good trampoline and some old school monkey bars, as well as a playground across the road. The local pub had good meals too.
The only thing we didn't like is having to cross the access road for some facilities, this meant our 3yo couldn't go between areas unattended.

Riverside Haven Lodge & Holiday Park
4.5/5
Great spot, good facilities.
Plenty of space and not too hard to find a flat spot for a tent. The kitchen can be a little cozy at peak times, but was perfectly tolerable. There are also BBQs and plenty of space outside.
Dispite being close to the highway, road noise was minimal.
With no significant roads inside the camp, I was happy for my 3yo to go between the toilet, tent, and kitchen unattended.
The river was warm and had a good swimming hole as well as areas suitable for small children to paddle. There was also a trampoline and a few other things to play on.
Take a torch, it's dark at night.

Moeraki Boulders Holiday Park @ Hamden Beach
4.0/5
Good place to stay with good facilities, close to the beach.
For kids, there is a good size play area outside the kitchen with a trampoline wee bikes and a boat to play in.
Only downside for us was having to camp in the area across the road from the main area, which meant our 3yo had to be accompanied. We could have camped in the area behind the office, but it was open to the road and didn't seem like a good idea.
