3.5/5
Unfortunately we were disappointed.
Overrated especially if on a power site. Base rate ok but the extra $ asked for disposal of black water, expensive driers and showers plus being asked to take away your own recycling and rubbish was unexpected. These services are what we pay for. Also no oven.

Hillview Camping Stay
2.0/5
After reading online that dogs were allowed, and driving there, manager then said he didn’t want dogs on site.
After much whinging and venting, he then said we could stay but to keep dogs out of sight.? Did a quick scan and decided it wasn’t for us. Not much on offer for $15 pp. basically a fenced paddock in the middle of farmland.

5.0/5
Seriously Hamner’s best kept secret - beautiful setting lots of shade under the trees, spacious and private sites, great facilities, heaps for kids to do, friendly relaxed management .
Easy 11 o’clock departure. We were able to get all our washing done, make our bread, have showers and freeze down for $45. Felt immense gratitude. Our dogs too very happy.

Hanmer Springs River Reserve, Hanmer Springs
4.5/5
A little gem with a beautiful swimming hole.
Has limited capacity for overnight - need to get there early. Polite but firm Ranger checks each night. Campers very respectful. Toilet block gets daily clean. The dusty road problematic especially when windy. No shade for designated camp sites but beside river beautiful. A lovely relaxing calm atmosphere.
