Mangaokewa Reserve
4.5/5
This was a lovely spot right along the river.
There were a handful of other campers. You do not have to be self contained. There is a flush toilet and a sink for washing up dishes. The only downside was the occasional car cruising through around bedtime. Otherwise it was a perfect, peaceful spot to sleep with the sound of the river in the background.

Waikite Valley Thermal Pools Campground
4.0/5
This is worth it because you get access to the hot pools....
The best perk is getting to soak first thing in the morning before they open the pools to the general public. I was there in April and it was wonderful to soak with only a handful of other campers at 8am while it was still cool outside. Warm water, beautiful setting. You need to take the few minutes to walk up the trail to the actual spring. It's beautiful!!

The camper facilities are amazing!
Huge kitchen, fridges, cooking space. The showers were nice. When I was there it wasn't busy and the staff was friendly. Had a great visit.

Lake Whakamaru Reserve
5.0/5
I stayed here on a Friday night in April and loved it!
It is FREE if you stay for only 1 or 2 nights. There is a pit toilet and a bin for rubbish. There were a handful of campers near the front part and even fewer on the loop further back. I camped right near the water under the trees and slept well! The other groups were quiet and I didn't experience any of the noise others reported.
