Waimea Road Beach Carpark
4.5/5
It’s just a parking lot at the beach access that has an outside shower and public toilet attached to a boat club building.
There is a restaurant amongst the houses that border the parking lot also. Sign says 2 spots for parking campers but I think there were 4 that parked that night nobody came to check but it was Xmas eve. Was free so it did the job.

Affordable Willowhaven Holiday Park
4.5/5
Nice place right at lakes edge for about 6 of the powered spots.
Kinda expensive at $100 for 4 in campervan at powered site but showers were hot, had a ok kitchen , clean bathrooms. Had some permanent campers but was very quiet and check in lady was nice. She gave a key card for gate that you returned in Dropbox when you left.

4.5/5
Basic campground about 5 min from town and 5 min from manu bay surf spot.

Lake Elterwater
4.0/5
It is a rest stop on the highway with a public toilet.
Very close to the road but not much traffic so noise wasn’t an issue. There is a little pier to watch birds in the preserve/ lake and a picnic table but not much else. Did the job for free.
