Such a fun place to stay. We were in the glamping tent and had a fire pit with an amazing view of the lake. The whole area was very nice and the tent was comfortable. Bathroom very basic but it is a camp site. We went as a couple but I think if you went as a group, it’d be really fun to all get a tent (there were 5 in our hub), as they all share a little kitchen tent and the fire!

The Camp has a huge compound, ideal if you’re traveling with a Pet. The location is closed by Wanaka and not too far from Queenstown so pretty convenient. The place is quiet and has the basic facilities you need

I just stayed one night.The Denver tent was really lovely, with a really nice view, we stayed in denver tent 1. The Toilet and shower facilities were average for a camp. Everything was as expected and a nice night. Although the food truck was closed as they closed it a couple days before our stay which is unfortunate due to off season, but it all worked out and was alright. I would reccomend if your looking for some glamping in a beautiful area!

The location was beautiful but the comfort of the stay could be improved with some outdoor lights so you can see what your'e eating for dinner and also a light to be able to see the toilet at night.
