Nice spot on the water at a beautiful bay.
Road sealed all the way, only 1 long drop toilet, no cooking shelter facility. Camp was quite full in peak season (week after New Years) though still managed to get a spot.

4.5/5
50c for a 6 minute hot shower was the best 50c spent!
Thought this was cheap and helps to keep the queues down in the busy periods. Hot water was for the full 6 minutes unlike previous reviewers. Great facilities, toasters, ovens, instant hot water, outdoor grill etc. San Souci restaurant across the road was a nice treat (book before 4pm). Camp ground super busy over summer holidays but still managed to get a space at 3pm for that evening.

4.0/5
We had great weather, it's a beautiful spot and the river was nice for swimming in the right conditions.
Large, flat grassy site, quite a few picnic tables and clean flush toilets.

Start of the Old Ghost Road bike trail.
Loads of sandflies (worse than on the West Coast). Long drop toilets, large flat grassy campsites.

Big campsite, close to Hokitika.
Lake is pleasant but not great for swimming, good facilities. New cooking shelters and solar shower cubicles. Toilets are a bit old, but adequate & flush toilets.
