Great Camp spot
Turned up late so we couldn't see the wonderful views until the next morning. Louise came out and greeted us, showed us around and made us feel very welcome. Really nice plots to park up with a fire-pit to relax by.

Nice chill campsite with a lovely host. Louise (the host) was helpful which was great as it was our first night with the camper. Location was great for exploring Shoal Bay and Wiromi!

Great for people travelling light
Really nice camping area, the grass was really well kept. Shower and toilet facilities were very clean. Plenty of room for everyone, felt like I definitely had my own space which was great. Awesome communication from Louise, she was very welcoming and professional. Thanks!
