Great location and great price with free WiFi.

This is a city camp site with a nice kiwi feel to it - plenty of space and good facilities block which are now up and running. A good start or a good end to any Christchurch trip. A couple of points lost for a few too many permanent campers and camper van facilities all a bit isolated. Generally though not a bad spot near to the airport and city.

Good facilities but the only real option in Akaroa.

The elevated position has the benefit of a cool breeze and nice views but just too far out of town to class as local. The steep hill to the site by road or the shortcut footpath involves over 120 steps so beware if you’re not after a work out after a few drinks. All the typical mod cons for a Top 10 site, main downfall the Hill.

Good location for the Springs etc but the site is a little run down when compared to other Top 10 and the price.

All the usual stuff for a Top 10, coins for the laundry and cost for the extra WiFi but if you can get through the money stuff it’s a good location and easy access.

Stayed 3 nights early December 2017 in drop dead gorgeous weather, golden sands, 25 degrees, great location and great facilities.......a definite 10 for us although by comparison on the expensive side

so if you can overcome that then come here. A decent pub and restaurant ,a good supermarket, a great beach with walks and perfect open water swimming and track cycling - Kaiteriteri is one heck of a place for a beach rest and access to the National Park and boat trips- bingo!

What a little gem of a site and a great host in Don.

Lovely welcome and a great pitch by the side of a river that was great for a dip. Loads of tips from Don on do’s and don'ts in the region which helped massively - pick of the crop from the veg garden and a great WiFi with power for devises. A massive ten for Don and the Rankers team

This is a quality top 10 site with great facilities, right on the beach, two great bars and restaurant over the road, a fantastic supermarket and brilliant staff.....everything a top 10 should be and is

- spent two days there and loved every minute in late November. If your after budget and basic don’t go here this is top drawer.

Spent two nights here and facilities are spot on.

Just slightly off the beaten track for Queenstown and next to the road so two points deducted - otherwise everything you would expect from a Top 10 - the staff were great and very helpful organising our flight to Milford Sound and Jet Shotover Boat ride which is a five minute walk away. Gorgeous weather made our two days perfect.

Spent 3 nights here in glorious sunshine and clear blue skies in mid Nov - Tracy and Glen were great when we needed them and the pitch for our Motor was perfect.Views to die for and a nice gentle breeze

. 1 point deducted for the surroundings to the pitches which were quite dusty due to the location. A short walk to the lake for swimming and sun bathing and early evening drinks made for a perfect location for our trip

We loved this place, great location and swimming, great bike ride or walk around the lake,great vibe but busy on weekends when the locals come out to play.

A big tick and could have stayed longer.

We arrived mid Nov to clear blue skies and 25 degrees the site was really busy but plenty of space to park up.

Fees payable but our DOC pass covered us. Superb location and basic facilities but well kept by DOC staff - 10 out of 10 all the way but the weather helped. A great walk up Hooker Valley track to see Mt Cook in all her glory.
