5.0/5
Loved every second of being there it’s totally worth it.
The property is surrounded by beautiful mountains of all different types. You get to see snow capped mountains, lush green mountains, and arid mountains. There’s a track that takes about an hour to go around to see the views from higher ground then your site (which already has great views). There are sheep on the property so it’s kind of a farm stay the lambs are very friendly. The hot tub is delightful and the stars are just as good or even better than on the dark reserve. while there is no dumping you can take ALL THE FRESH ALPINE DRINKING WATER you want. The property does have an eco-focus so be prepared for a composting toilet honestly it wasn’t bad. I found it quite nice. The couple who runs the property is lovely and they bring you out robes and wine glasses. It’s worth chatting with them. They’ve been on adventures all around the world.

The Lakeview is lovely.
The bathrooms leave something to be desired: not maintained well, outdoors, and not repaired. It is very windy in this location. Also, if your goal is to go into Cromwell or access the Vineyards you will have to drive from this location. There are no walking trails to them.

Pay for laundry which has 2 machines for an entire 100 person campsite.
Pay for 6 min shower tokens (one per person). Pay for wifi. Didn’t love that when the campsite cost was higher than a couple of the super nice rv campsites we’ve visited. Good family friendly play space with tons of kids. Decent facilities. Free herbs and lettuce grown on property.
