Avondale Motor Park
This is a very tidy motor park.
Spotless bathrooms, nice free showers, decent sized communal kitchen (no communal pots/plates), laundry. It cost us $36 for two people in a camper van on an unpowered site. Note: the unpowered section is more like a gravel driveway off to the side, with almost half of it on a slope. The flat area fills up quickly with a few vans, and I could see it quickly running out of space during busy times.
We also have non powered area up on the grass at the front of the park. We are forever replacing the pots and pans and crockery in the kitchen
that unfortunately people help themselves to. Thanks for your comments

Bruce Pulman Park
It has good amenities for a free spot, quite fancy toilets and a shower (though it was closed when we were there) as well as a place to fill up on water etc.
Make sure you park in the right spot though, we got rudely (and aggressively) moved along by security because we were accidentally parked in the wrong spot due to lack of signage.

Murphy's Law Restaurant
A locked parking lot behind Murphy's Law bar.
You get your swipe pass from the front desk. It's a bit pricy- $30 for our van, and the bar blasts music (at least on a Friday) long into the night. Bring earplugs if you're going on the weekend! It does have a clean toilet and free hot showers though. Powered sites as well.

Lake Tutira Campsite
Really nice little campground.
The scenery is beautiful and there is ample space. It feels quite private, but you are close enough to the road (across the lake) to hear some noise during the night. Still, we really liked this spot!
