A remote camp with just toilets and water, this site was looking pretty run
down last time we were through. It is listed in the Hurunui District Council
camping grounds, but is administered by the Domett Reserve Committee.
Maximum of 24 campsites but wouldn't take a large vehicle in there as the
sites are spotted around in amongst bushes and trees.  There is good fishing
in the river and the sea. No power but a site will cost you $8 per night to be
put in the honesty box.

This is a Department of Conservation campsite.

there are no sand flies. There are a couple of tables and ample rubbish bins on

In an old gold mining town steeped in history, this riverside camp has a lovely
sheltered aspect with a perimeter of tall fir trees.  The sites are level with plenty
of room and are well kept, parks on grass or gravel. A large clean kitchen (with
a wood burner) has an entry at each end and is complete with two full stoves,
microwaves, hot plates and a fridge/freezer. The well-maintained ablutions have
large showers with dressing rooms, a children’s bath and a disability suite, while
the laundry provides automatic washers and dryers.  A great area for fishing
we are told, with many walks and mountain bike tracks to enjoy in the area,
the camp is at the back of the Reefton shops and restaurants so close to
everything. A state-of-the-art roller park is next door, as is the swimming pool,
or take a stroll in the bushy Victoria Park. Your hosts are Fiona and Nigel.
