Excellent proximity to Milford Sound.
Only one annoying camper with an errant flashlight: they settled, eventually! Easy to find and a great price. Track in was full of potholes, but it is what it is: just take it easy!

Even though we contacted the park with more than 72 hours notice, they claimed it was less than and would not refund us.
We decided not to risk driving Arthur's Pass due to the hazardous conditions of a large dump of snow. Their response was "...just when the weather is clearing up..." They were obviously reading different meteorological advice. In the end, we had a much better trip up Lewis Pass after staying overnight at Hanmer Springs in a freedom camp site. Not a good way to treat paying customers who are unfamiliar with the road in and driving a campervan! Be aware that, if you intend on staying here, don't pay up front.

We were going to stay here 12th September.
Arrived at the site to find it cramped and a decidedly suspect pair in a dodgy looking camper who got out to check us out. Didn't feel safe at all and so made the decision to go to the Top 10 Holiday Park instead. Sad that we didn't get to see the penguins.

A great spot to stay overnight!
Lovely beach for a stroll and close enough to town and Lanarch Castle. Toilets cleaned daily and other campers were considerate.

After making the decision to avoid Arthur's Pass due to a dump of snow, we stopped here overnight before crossing to the West via Lewis Pass.
What a great little spot! The advice from a previous reviewer to look out for the "Get Lost" sign made it easier to find. It filled up just on dark and everyone hunkered down for the night.

This was a great place to stop!
The Wetland development was a lovely place to stroll along and watch the birdlife and, whilst brisk, the walk along the beach promenade was also worthwhile. Close enough to the township and some good spots to take in the sea views.

A pretty little spot not too far from the lake.
It filled up very quickly on dusk.
