Gorgeous place to stay - right near the beautiful blue river.
Good toilets - fit for purpose.
The ducks loved the company as well. I really enjoyed this beautiful campsite - super close to wanaka as well :)

5.0/5
The best place I stayed in, in our adventure in NZ.
We had a campervan and went out of our way a little bit (30 mins) to get to this campsite. I’m a LOTR fan myself and actually felt the most ‘LOTR vibe’ being here - even more than Rohan or Gondor ‘areas’! You could actually believe yourself in hearing Sam say ‘MR FRODO! ... & I’m coming with you!’.
We have a particularly special experience with this campsite as it started snowing overnight and we woke up to a winter wonderland in the morning. A truely magical experience (in November!). Campervan was fine driving back on snow-y roads as well.
10/10 recommend. I don’t know about toilets etc because we were self contained - but I think I saw one :)
