Best to book

A 10-hectare camp in native bush on the Kohatu-Kawatiri Highway, halfway between Nelson and Murchison. It has over 70 powered sites, hundreds of unallocated unpowered sites, cabins, caravans and glamping tents. Safe river swimming, eel feeding, an animal park, go-karts, a waterslide and a flying fox keep kids busy, and it is dog friendly year-round.
