This is a great park with a beautiful location and Michael made us feel welcome from the start.
We got the far corner lot with a view of the falls and shade from the tree. The showers were hot and grounds very tidy. Conveniently located to Paihia and the Bay of Islands. We booked a fishing charter with Paul at Get Reel Fishing Charters. He worked really hard for us and we came away with several Red Snapper and a 30lb King. We took the fish to King Wah Chinese Restaurant and they made us dishes of shashimi, deep fried, sweet and sour, and broiled. It was amazing and we were stuffed.
Michael warned us those corner lots may have an odor at times and he was correct. He offered for us to move but we enjoyed the view by the water.

Awesome campground and great value for the price in my opinion!
Bathroom, laundry facilities, and kitchen were all very clean. Only a few other campers on a weekday when I was there. Spots 23-30 or so are closest to the water and the best sites! New owners since Dec 2022 and Michael was great. Definitely take advantage of the kayaks!

Stunning spot next to the falls.
Michael the owner was super friendly and welcoming and gave great tips and advice for the area.
$60 a night feels a little expensive but the facilities were clean and in good condition.

Beautiful campground with waterfront beach.
Children loved the adventure playground & trampoline. Free kayaks for guests so we paddled out to the waterfall. Also has free use of the swimming pool. Campsite has a small amenities block which is being renovated, and was perfectly adequate. Highly recommended for a visit.

A great campsite and a great welcome!
Laundry, showers and toilets were very clean!
Fully equipped kitchen was also available to us, which is a huge plus!
The proximity to the Haruru falls was pretty crazy.
Thanks for everything!

The four points are only because of the beautiful view of the falls.
Grass needs cutting, ablution blocks are tired and seriously minimal. No water hookups for campers. You are paying top dollar for a three star campground. Sadly disappointing, it has so much potential if someone cared about the camping part of the resort. Clearly they focus on the hotel.

Hi Dee & Colin, we value reviews from our customers and were very sad to hear you were disappointed. Our waterfront campground has been operating since the 1950s, and we're currently upgrading the ablution block & kitchen to have a new art-theme with a gazebo & BBQ area. Water filling stations, laundry & a campervan waste station are available. We also have kayaks, fishing from our wharf, picnic tables, a BBQ hula hut, an adventure playground, trampoline and a swimming pool available for campers. We hope your next experience with us is better and wish you happy travels.

Lovely owners!
Super friendly! They let me a space with the waterfront views :) chill vibe, the other campers were so so nice! Free wifi and powered space :) so perfect if you want to chill with a bit of Netflix. You go to sleep with the sound of the waterfalls. Super recommended!
