This was a lovely little place to stay before going to Mt. Cook. We met a large group of friends who travel there every year from Dunedin and Christchurch. Tons of fun and very respectful of noise.

It just seems a bit run down. Lots of people live there in their RVs and have there sites walled off by fencing so we felt a bit like we were trespassing on someone else's space. Besides that, everything was fine. We stayed in a small cabin and used the shared bathroom and kitchen. Beds were not very comfortable. Bathroom was clean. Kitchen was crowded when we were there.
