2.5/5
Dirty, rustic, and a bit on the dilapidated side.
The kitchen is well stocked, but the bathrooms were unimpressive, damp, and dirty. Could not get cold water in the men's showers - choice was "scalding" or "off". You're better off in Wanaka.

4.0/5
Solid campground.
Two drop toilets - one of which was quite clean and the other was okay.
Flies were not a problem when we were there in Mid March, even when we set camp in an area of the campsite shielded from the wind. Large campsite with a single hut but still no issues with crowds.

Very clean; walking distance from the main area of the town.
Really good wifi in the unpowered camp area we were in.

Basic, yet still great.
Ample toilets, and centrally located hut for cooking. Great location, fantastic for stargazing.
