Glenavys Waitaki River Motor Camp

Good spacious park with good, clean facilities. Stayed on a power site. Allowed to dump rubbish and recyclables. Some road noise as adjacent to highway. Never seen so many notices in a facilities block, all in capital letters. No doubt some users need to be directed not to do this or that but it is unfriendly. Booked in through a male that was working in the grounds. He took my cash but did not want me to register. Gave me the impression that he would pocket the money or neglect to declare the income. Not good.

Worst place ever. Came there with my family, And a very loud and annoying sheep. I do not recommend. And some other guests were screaming and the dog was barking. Very loud, couldn’t sleep that night. I have insomnia too which makes it double hard to sleep. 1/5

I totally love this place. Our studio cabin was amazing. Everything inside and out was brand new with absolutely gorgeous design. This was the cherry on top for the last night of our week long holiday down south. We stopped here after a hideous previous booking in the Brydone Hotel in Oamaru (which we refused to stay). We were happy that the Brydone Hotel was disgusting as we would never have found this gem of a place. The hosts (and fur and woollen family members) were very friendly and helpful. I am an animal lover so I was in my happy place when I found we were next to their baby lambs and goat, chickens and chicklets. The animals were not noisy at all but loved having pats. The rooms were equipped with everything we needed with double glazing on the windows and it was lovely and warm with no need for heating. We will definitely be popping back down to stay very soon just because we can. Thanks for the perfect end to my 50th birthday holiday.
