Oparau Roadhouse and Bills Backpackers
4.5/5
Great location, we were on our own the night we stayed, felt safe as we were made very welcome by the shop owners, hot food available to 6pm, great selection of groceries in store also.
Flush toilet facilities and great breakfast menu available the next morning with a very friendly greeting in shop.

Lake Maraetai Camping Reserve
4.5/5
Great location by the lake, flush toilets, bus cafe if you want tea/coffee/food.
Great hut for cooking under, it rained our entire stay so was good to cook and stay dry! Right beside a play park and a golf course also. Drinking water available on an outside tap (near the road ramp) only downfall was that the toilets smelled quite bad both nights that we stayed here but friendly locals and laundrettes, shops and bakery close by just up the road.

Piropiro Campsite
2.5/5
Long drop toilets, no signal for 3miles into the campsite on gravel roads, when we arrived there were lots of people there to hunt.
We decided not to stay overnight here but would be a nice spot for people looking to be off grid for a while as lots of forest area to explore.

Stayed here in our campervan for 1 night, great location by the lake, very pretty, plenty of space for parking beside other campervans.
Great flush toilets, although it was busy it was still quiet.
