Tapu Creek Campervan Park

Had trouble as phone no in nzmc was different. Rang and were told they had room for our 10 m bus. On arrival very busy was shown two spots but unable to get bus on either with the camp layout so had to drive back to tapu. Very disappointed and certainly do not advise anyone with a bus this camp is not suitable even though it says it is. Did have a lovely week in Thames at the end of the day.

A gorgeous, tranquil spot right beside a river that's perfect for a summer swim or just sit on a rock beside the water and contemplate the peaceful view. Clean, quiet campground with quirky artistic touches that made it extra attractive and helped us feel welcome. Yes, there's a fully equipped communal kitchen under an outdoor lean-to shelter, as well as a pizza oven and free gas barbeque. Great showers too!

It is a very quiet Campervan Park which is decorated with much love. It is located in the forest and next to a small river. Highlights of the Park are the swimming hole and the pizza oven. Dogs are allowed and the facilities are clean. The owners are a very friendly and helpful family. A very good place to stay.

This delightful camping ground is a must visit if you are travelling in the Coramandel. Remeber to pick up a ready to cook Pizza from the supermarket of bring soume ingredients to make your own on thier wood fired pizza oven. Camp in the trees suurounded by native sonbirds by the creeek, lovely family owners, 10 out of 10 Tapu Creek!

I love it! And it is awesome.....!!!!It is a so beautiful place, and many flowers, herbs and lovely decorations.....the park is next to stream and the water is so clean......i soaked my whole body in the water, the feeling was so good! There are a pizza oven you can use.......i tried to make my first pizza over there...it was awesome... First, put some wood and burn in the oven...then put the burning woods aside ......and put your pizza into the over.......finally, your DIY pizza was made!! Perfect!!yummy

This is small camp with friendly manager's. Camp is situated 2 km from main road. Camp is next to a stream.
New & clean facilities and awesome hot shower. Fridge, laundry. But the most important is shelter with BBQ and pizza oven is FREE. There is possible to hear some birds.

Small camp hidden in the valley, surrounded by fern forest...

Couple of nooks with plugs for campervans electric, basic, but clean and well operating toilet facilities and hot shower (no coins needed). Ideal place to visit if you want to be away from huge holiday parks.

Despite of my late self check-in (manager was not already at the camp site), I've got access to all needed facilities. I am not sure, if there was a communal kitchen. Cheaper, but camp fully satisfying lonesome traveller! Morning registration with camp manager was not a problem, manager was friendly.
