4.5/5
The weather was absalutly mental when we arrived, so thankful for this place.
The owner was really nice, she even popped over later to tell me where a bunch of toys were for the little one. The kitchen was super cute and me and my partner got to play darts whilst we cooked which was weirdly really fun. The whole place is kind of old, don't come expecting the nicest shower ever but it was a really nice place to stay and we would definatly reccomend!

Lovely location in terms of beach and really friendly staff.
Cute little playground next to the kitchen. I really wanted to like this place more, however for the price you're paying, the facilities are just not that great. Small unstocked kitchen, showers were good and toilets just okay. Defo not worth $60 especially considering there are some free spots down the road, and the camp spots are a bit slanted. Also, I don't know if it was just because the were renovating, or if the tank just needed emptying, but where we camped absalutly stunk. It's probably lovely if your glamping as those spots looked nice. Wish there was more nice things I could say as the woman on reception was really lovely, but that smell really put us of :(

When we originally stayed here we loved it.
Great facilities, family bathroom even has a bath (you ask for the key at reciption and get it for an hour) which felt like a total luxary! Reception staff were super friendly and even directed us to a bird sanctuary a short walk away which our 2yo loved! We liked it here so much we decided to stay again on our way back from milford sound. This is when the issues started. Arrived and was told where to go, we set up then the owner(assuming as she was the only one not wearing uniform) told us we were in the wrong spot (even though we littraly had a map where the receptionest highlighted this spot) She apologised and said she'd get back to us. Okay, mistakes happen. The van next to us (the ones who were also booked for this spot) said if we needed to move they would happily move instead as they'd just got there and we'd already set up with our infant in toe. We were also staying the same number of nights. The owner found us later and told us we needed to move, we explained what the other van had said and immedeatly her attitude changed and she said no, we have other bookings. Okay... I said that's alright mix ups happen, no problem we'll just move. She gave me the biggest fake smile and just said no. My partner asked what happened anyway and she began acting like it was our fault and being really rude and condescending. Everytime we saw her after this she wouldn't make eye contact with us. We came in later as we had been double chargered for our stay and very politely asked about it. She was rude again and even dismissive to her own Staff. The woman who helped us was nice, everyone seemed nice except her. Such a shame as it was so lovely here but if she's the owner I'd never want to stay again. Totally ruined it.

Friendly staff and great toilets and showers (lovely power showers!).
Absalutly fabulous family bathroom, even had a little baby bath which was perfect for us! Big kitchen area (unequipped for utensils but plenty of space and sinks/hobs/ovens). Great play ground for the little one, free WiFi and easy walking distance to town and to the georgous lake. Had a great time here and given its cheeper than the alternatives around, would definatly reccomend!
