Mangaweka Campground
5.0/5
Lovely place for $10 pp in a self contained!
Right next to a lovely rushing river and extremely clean toilets/ $4.50 shower (can pay w/ pay wave) and kitchen facilities. I wish every $10 campsite was like this. They are doing it right.

Motuoapa Bay Holiday Park
5.0/5
$25pp for a non powered self contained vehicle.
Since there isn’t too many free option in the area I thought this was well worth the money for convenience to Tongariro Alpine crossing the next day. They have all the amenities and most importantly well maintained/clean. My only issue was mosquitos!!! Those pesky things got into my van and were buzzing around my head all night haha but that is no other than my fault

Decks Reserve Carpark, Motueka
4.5/5
Honestly surpassed my expectations.
Had toilets and running water to brush teeth/wash face. My favorite part were the laundry services! This parking lot has a vending machine washer and dryer that takes credit cards! Win!!!! However, be prepared to leave by 6am on Sunday morning or the Sunday Morning farmers market people will do it for ya haha
