A nice holiday park with plenty to do within the park and nearby. A nice river to swim in, some trails, games like table tennis, very friendly and helpful staff, and seemingly booked by overall good people. I ended up adding another night as I grew comfortable and really established myself into New Zealand, as this was my second spot I stayed during my trip. The kitchen was also pretty nice and well equipped.
The bathrooms weren't terrible, but they weren't great either. Maintained in a clean way, it was an enclave from the outdoors, but was mostly outdoors. You also had to pay for hot water in the shower and it seemed like the hot water lasted for shorter than advertised, but I never timed it or anything and I've got a very American shower preference of enjoying rather than rushing.

Just a little thing, but a tile mirror on the wall of the room i was in would have been great. Just one of those small things, but would have been appreciated.

The bed was comfortable and the dorm cosy (albeit a little on the small side).
The location is surrounded by a beautiful forest and there's a nice beach a few minutes walk away.

We liked the little cabin because we have everything we need there, beds, kitchen, fridge and our own bathroom. Perfect for when you travel with little kids. We have a good time there, just bad weather and sick kids, not the best combination but we enjoyed as much as we could. It is a great playgorund in the property and another in Thames, just at 10 minutes drive, my little one loved both!
The water from the shower it wasn't hot enough, we had to open the tap from the handsbasin to make it hoter and it was raining the whole weekend so not the best shower. And also not the best clean, it was tidy but not well clean. We found a plate with saussages in the microwave, rubbish in the toilet bin and it wasn't swep/vaccum properly.

cheap and good location!
the caravan we were in didn’t have a heater so was quite chilly! Staff were quite slow and not the friendliest but we did arrive fairly late (6ish)
good value for money and lots of activities at the site so can’t complain

very disappointed as I’ve stayed here before and paid at the place. I made sure that it was okay for me to pay at the place as I had the cash for our stay they said yes . I asked them again they said yes then the day before our stay they said I had to pay before 10am the next day otherwise they will give my room away. I couldn’t pay as I had cash only.

The Location was great.
We had no Hot Water for 2 days ..The gas bottle for the califont was empty and after it was changed the water still didn't heat up .. Cold showers after a hard day's work wasn't very nice. The shower wasn't thoroughly cleaned and the bathroom window needed to be a sliding window with mesh netting to stop the insects from coming inside while airing the bathroom out after bathing.

The bungalow slept 7. 4 bunkbeds, a single and double bed. Kitchen, dining and bathroom. It was nice to have a separate building from other rooms. The air conditioner was a real plus. It was hot and muggy when we were there. The location was great. Nice facilities with on-site games.
Parking was a bit of a challenge because of other guests parking in front of their bungalows instead of between. The bathroom sink was very small, but be made do. The building walls were very thin and people partying kept us up late into the night.

Cabin 7 was not to bad.
first n foremost I believe there was a mix-up with the booking, I know for sure that I wouldn't have booked a cabin with bunks as my sister and I would not be comfortable sleeping on bunks and also having my 5-month pregnant niece climb up and down bunks. on arrival, we did not have a hot plate or bowls and we felt cramped in the cabin as it was quite small.

It was such a peaceful place to stay.
