I think the reviews are a bit unfair maybe we just had luck but it’s a lovely campsite. Our room was simple but clean and it had a heater it was really cosy. Best sleep since long time. The kitchen was really well equipped and was clean and the lounge was really nice with a tv. The bathrooms were really clean and you can shower for 7 min which is more then enough. The staff when we checked in was really friendly and you get a wifi code for 1 gb which was working as well! So really nice place! Definitely come here again for that price it was more then enough.

I've experienced a wide variety of campsites in the last few weeks.this one is the worst.everything is worn or stinks. Our cabin smells as if fried onion rings had lived here for 2 weeks before us.the washrooms are disgusting. WiFi may work, but probably not.

Could use some TLC for sure. Good location and central region which is helpful after a big day of driving. Facilities are very runned down, the wifi did not work and you are given a timed shower. The women’s bathroom only had one cubicle with toilet paper. We slept in our van and paid for a non powered site approx $37 overall. Could be worse but also could use some improvement

Rather run down and definitely more “basic” than expected. It was very difficult to contact them by phone and Wifi didn’t work (spoke with staff who conceded that it was very slow and was effected by the weather.)

This camp is old and looks shabby. It's clean and the ablution block is good. It could look way better with some TLC. Pull the weeds out of the guttering and create a garden.

Booked via Wotif. My error with the date meant they woukd not change the date nor refund the money that I had paid via Wotif. Did not stay there. Found much nicer lodgings elsewhere.
Never going to use Wotif for bookings again. They said they had contacted Central City about making a change. These thieves took our money and gave us NO accommodation. Do not stay at this venue, they are thieves.

I booked for two cabins but only one was cleaned. The other cabin has a lingering cigarette smoke smell and beddings are not properly cleaned, totally different from the photos of the room and bedding I have seen before I booked. Long story short, we stayed in one cabin and asked for a refund (to this day, three weeks after we left, no refund has been given). The next day, I saw a professional cleaner was sent to clean the cabin. Before we left, a female couple living in one of the cabin were fighting outside and in the public bathroom. It appears to me that they are long term tenants as I have read in another review about their fights. It was very traumatic for my children to witness them. I and another camper has spoken to the staff to call the police but nothing happened. I had been following up regarding the refund until now but likewise, no action has been done.

Service was good, housekeeping needs attention. Cabin was dirty. The bed was comfortable. The grounds of the place needs a massive tidy up. The place has been let go and needs work. Not as central as I thought

Nice little campground. Flat places for your tent, clean facilities, nice staff.

Kitchen has toasters, small ovens, kettles, stoves, some cutlery and pans (not many pots and only small ones). But it works.
It is short walk to the Pak'n'Save to buy stuff and to the city centre in general.

WiFi - you get 1GB for free, after that you probably have to pay (not sure, didn't need more).

Great location. Great facilities, clean, reasonable rates. Was greeted by a friendly young lady. Met the resident Cat boss, beautiful white lady.

The place is beautiful the bathrooms and kitchen are fairly what you pay for. But I disliked how my family and I had problems when we first got here the lady was so rude and was demanding money when I asked her politely to wait until my family and I were finished talking as we just had a heated moment. She could not wait and just stood their while we tried to problem solve. The rooms are cozy.

Small ' great ' campsite in city center. First look is that it is small but al the main things you need or very good: showers/toilet, and kitchen. Go there

Available to book just 10min ago and also can check it at night. Looks OK worth it. Kitchen is cleaned

Nothing fancy but that's how camping should be! We're used to really roughing it in the middle of nowhere so this place is luxury in comparison. Also, the manager is friendly as and gave us an extra room on the house when he saw that we'd booked a room not big enough for us by mistake. Showers are awesome. Everything is clean and sanitary. Nice cozy place to rest your head after a long day of discovery and adventure. 5 stars for cleanliness and hospitality!

Great place, the TV has prime, the showers give you the perfect amount of time (they are on a timer) the only drawback is the wifi ($15NZD for 1024MB) but overall it was a great place to stay

Friendly staff. Small campground in a great location. The facilities/decor could be updated but otherwise it's good value for money and gives you everything you need. Coin operated laundry, toilets, hot showers and a full communal kitchen, dining and lounge/tv room

Not a bad place to stay in Invercargill. The room was super basic, but it was clean. The shared kitchen and lounge are also clean and looked after. If all you need is a place to sleep, there’s no reason not to stay here. The staff watched our bags for the afternoon while we walked around Invercargill, which was nice.

Wonderful staff.very clean and secure campsite for such a central location. Thank you all for making our stay over the Christmas period so enjoyable.and looking after our home on wheels whilst we were away on Stewart and Ulva Islands.
