Small, crowded campground but clean and close to city centre.
If you're looking for a spot close to city and do not care about a small place this is a very good place to stay in city centre.
Supermarket around the corner, gondola and city centre, and quiet place at night.
Hi Hendrik,
Thanks for your review, it's great that you enjoyed our central location, and found the park nice and peaceful. We have a lot of Dutch visitors as well as staff, so it was lovely to have you join us.

Basic campground but around 50 campers the night we stayed.
$9 a night for powered site is great.
Beautiful setting, great area.
Update
Not 50 campervans but about 50 persons, there was I think a school group there with minibus sleeping in tent at our night.
Wow that was a busy night. Normally we see around 2 - 10 campers per night, except for 24dec - 5 jan..this is very crowded during this peak time. Thanks for your review!

A last minute campground for us as Wellington was fully booked.
Friendly owner but we stayed the last night campground was open.
They sold the lot to Countdown supermarket. He let us stay the night and now this ground closed down.

$36 a night for powered site for 2 persons and pay for hot shower, 50 cents for 4 minutes is expensive for a standard campground next to a noisy highway a few km from city center.

3.0/5
Located between a railway and a heavy traffic/truck by-pass for town, you now and then shaking in your car.
At the rear and of this campground is a laundry for local users as well as a fitniss center mainly for local users. Open 24 hours a day !!! Where other campgrounds expect and respect a 10pm - 7am quiet-rule this campground allows 24 hours through-traffic on their site for mainly local users!!! Why not open entry at rear end of campground for local users?
However campground itself is a 10/10. Well designed spacious ground and everything looks brand new, clean. Just great facilities.

I write this review while I stay here.
Only down point is that it's close to the road, some noise but it's inside city and speedlimit is 50.
But most important is friendly staff, great facilities and pricing.

Lady-owner not friendly, rude like others say.
Shouting to us when asking why not discount on our kiwi-member card as if we asking for something strange.
Campground location is great but amenties to old, we had to share mens/womens showers as womens block was closed for winter.
This campground has great potential with the right management. The park is beautiful situated, close to the pools.

Pros: Location, views, kitchen and showers super.

Too expensive for offerd service, don't waste your money here!!!!
Showers were closed untill 6 pm on the day we arrived, so couldn't take a shower. Had semilar experience 5 years ago and regret we returned to this campground.
Dear Hendrik, our showers are open 24/7, just imagine all the unhappy guests who will line up at our reception to complain if our showers were not open all the time!! :-) Not sure where on earth you tried to go for a shower!! :-)

I got tho agree with most comments on this campsite/hot pools.
The pictures look better then it's real. The hot pools are clean and great but the rest needs a make over. Slidings are great fun for kids, so I'm sure your kids will have a fun day this place.

Expensive but great vieuws when clear bleu skies.
Expensive but lady at counter gives 2 of us 3 discount even when we didn't ask about/for it!!!
She give mom senior discount even without ID/pasport and my partner student discount without student card.
She said if you say yes when I ask you something you can get discount. Do you study?
Was for us a suprise and seems the place is not only about big money.
