Mount / Mt Potts Lodge
5.0/5
You really feel like you’re in The Lord of the Rings here.
Mount Potts Lodge is very close to Mt. Sunday, where Edoras (Rohan) was filmed. The campsite has basic but clean showers and a great outdoor kitchen with a BBQ area. It’s in the middle of nowhere, making it a peaceful and relaxing spot. Perfect for stargazing at night and being among the first to visit Edoras in the morning. Even the drive there feels straight out of the movie. Some spots are uneven, but we just used a stone to level our vehicle.

Te Anau Tasman Holiday Parks
4.0/5
The campground is green and beautiful, positioned right next to a beautiful lake with walking paths.
Toilets are clean, and showers water pressure is amazing. There are multiple kitchens, bathrooms, and lounges all around the territory. It does get quite busy as the camp is big, and there will be many other camper with you. That being said, there is enough facility to accommodate everyone, it just won’t be very peaceful in the evening.

Rapahoe Beach Holiday Park
5.0/5
Amazing location right by the beach.
Everyone has their own allocated place. Small camping but very good facilities, very nice commun place in an old renovated school, good kitchen with everything you would need. The waves are not to noisy.

Waikite Valley Thermal Pools Campground
4.5/5
Very nice camping.
Clean toilet and shower, however you might need to queue because not many available. Small place but big enough to cook your dinner. Pitty is not a commun space for eating that can be quite annoying if it rains. You have access to the thermal pool. It is especially good to go early morning. The camping is really quiet. Better to book in advance.

Whakapapa Holiday Park
5.0/5
Very good camping.
You are located in the middle of the national park with many amazing hike accessible. It is a cosy camping with your own place separate by trees. It is very quiet. Shower and toilet clean and enough to not to need to queue. The commun place is warm and fully equipped that is very useful especially as it can get cold in the morning. You can use the Tongariro National Park shuttle for booking the shuttle bus from the camping main entrance (need to book in advance). Overall almost perfect experience.

White Horse Hill Campground
2.5/5
The only advantage of this place is its location.
Beautiful mountains around, and picturesque route that leads to it. The camp has no shower or kitchen but a common place to sit. There are hundreds of people, and everyone is sitting on top of each other. As a result, toilets can get quite dirty, there is also no lights in them (meaning you’ll need a flashlight to move around). Cars keep arriving till 11 pm and start leaving at 5. With this amount of cars, it can be very noisy too.
