The owner is extremely nice and the place is great!
$27 for two people at a powered site plus free use of toilets, hot showers, kitchen, and laundry all included! Would recommend for anyone! 10/10 no question.

Bushy Beach
3.5/5
Beautiful short walk but didn't see penguins.
One seal. If you wanna get up close to yellow eyed penguins in a bigger colony go to the Moeraki Lighthouse bushwalk, a bit south of here - they came right up to us!

Campbells Bay
5.0/5
Beautiful location, they ask for a $5 donation in an honesty box per vehicle.
Cleanest toilets I've seen at a campground so far and a cold shower but we didn't use it - it's winter! We stayed 2 nights, walked on the beach during the day, loved it!

Trotters Gorge Scenic Reserve
3.0/5
Two options for hiking, one is 30 minutes return to see the caves and the other is 1 hour 30 minutes return just a loop through the woods.
A man was hunting there with his dogs, other than that we were alone. It's a steep incline and parts of the trail had fallen trees from a mudslide. Do not go if it's raining!! Very slippery and steep. Beautiful natural forest and peeking views to the gorge but not what we expected. A great workout, the views are okay, and not a very safe trek in wet weather. Maybe on a sunny day it's more rewarding.
