The Camp has a huge compound, ideal if you’re traveling with a Pet. The location is closed by Wanaka and not too far from Queenstown so pretty convenient. The place is quiet and has the basic facilities you need

Clean, comfy cabins. Good location - close to wanaka and on the edge of Lake Hawae which was lovely. Just a note, you need to rent any kitchen equipment here which is fine but something to keep in mind when planning.

The location was beautiful but the comfort of the stay could be improved with some outdoor lights so you can see what your'e eating for dinner and also a light to be able to see the toilet at night.

Our stay at The Camp was magical. Unfortunately, we were only staying for 1 night in the Wanaka region, but would have definitely extended my stay if possible. We booked the Lakeside Cabin, would recommend. It had all the amenities travellers need and the location is just perfect with stunning views of the surrounding mountains. Staff was genuine and helpful. The Camp Foodtruck is a must, great food with local beers, 10/10.
