Very spacious camping ground with easy boat launching. Flush toilets and nice views. Got a few nice trout too.

Awesome campground with lots of space! I was lucky enough to have the whole place to myself however if it was at full capacity the facilities are quite limited

Amazing campground by a vast lake. Brought my dog with me - just call the Te Kuiti office and you can get a permit done online via email. Careful driving in - I had to drive through paddock of curious calves who need a lot of encouragement to get out of the way! Definitely remember to close the gates behind you if you opened them. Remember to bring insect repellent!

Pretty nice spot. Great during good weather for swimming or if you're a boat person.Views are pretty, but not amazing.Amenities are sparse, with a few spread out benches and tables. One set of toilets and one outside faucet for non-potable water.There is a shelter with a fish station.Be prepared for wind, rain, and lots and lots of gnats and other bugs.

I've been travelling in a van for nearly 2 months and this is one of my favourite campsites I've stayed at so far, very basic facilities but the views are well worth it!

This is a stunning DOC campsite with 50 large unpowered pitches and awesome views. Approx half the site is for campers with dogs (dont forget to apply online for your free dog permit). Modern flushing toilets but no showers. Safe beach area and an easy boat launch. The sunsets will take your breath away.

Love this camp site, picnic tables at some spots, and fire pits. Can swim, fish or enjoy the view.Clean toilets and running water that needs boiling if you want use it other than washing your hands.No showers or rubbish facility so you have to take your rubbish with you when you leave.

This is a great place to camp as its quite cheap per night. Around $8/night (Adults) I have gone here to Kayak. It was a very windy day so the river was a bit choppy. The road here is steep as you enter the campground and very narrow. There are a few blind corners. There are only basic facilities here. Dogs are allowed but requires a DOC permit according to their website. It is not recommended to go here if you have a massive caravan and its pulled by a small vehicle as its too steep getting out.

This is our third year coming to Arohena and it is always so beautiful and peaceful. I love that there are flushing toilets and water stations set up in various spots. DOC do an amazing job of looking after it.
