What's nearby

  • If you walk along the Buffalo Beach (near to the corner by the wharf) after the tide has gone out, you will be treated to seeing hundreds of little starfish. We wandered down the almost deserted beach as the sun set over the hills, finding whole shells and the little stars - it was magical.

The old style camp facilities were acceptable and the location and outdoor landscape was good. Unfortunately the damp musty smell in the cabin was overpowering which impacted negatively.

Cute little campground in need of some refurbishment. Rooms were not super clean and taps were challenging to turn off. Soap in ladies loo empty for some time. It appears to be for sale so could be great again soon. Nice location for exploring Coromandel.

I did not have big expectatin about this location, but it was ok for what it is : a campsite. We were comfortale and had most of what we needed. the only problem is that after sometime the cold water became a bit brownish, so basically we had to survive using the hot water only.

The campground changed our booking who had been confirmed and where getting us to move into a second location for the second night with an additional charge, when I sent confirmation we would do that, I received an email telling me it was no longer available, I responded as soon as I read the email. On this alone I wouldn’t recommend them

The unit we stayed needed to do big maintenance starting from Bathroom and finishing windows (shower was leaking, it was hard to close windows) and couple of fans in the unit would be great as it was very hot and kids could not sleep at all. so was not quite enjoyable stay.

Basic but all you need!

We're A couple and two friends who really enjoyed our one night's stay. Everything was as expected. The beds were comfortable. We bought our own sheets as requested and actually bright own pillows too. The ones provided were quite thin so one could double up if needed. We ended up with two double beds and plenty of space for our overnight stay. The showers (token operated for five minutes hot water) were very spacious. Please note there is no soap in the toilet though this is to be expected. It rained heavily and was very windy overnight but we were extremely cozy and didn't get any disturbance. We enjoyed our stay and it was only 30 min drive to Hahei (hot water beach or trail to cathedral cove). Steve the caretaker was very helpful and great recommendation of Frankies Pub! It was good value for money (especially during high peak season) and highly recommended for people who have realistic expectations.
