Amazing! Exactly what it looks like, glamping, great amenities, the lake is fantastic and theres a sauna you can book into as well as a food truck!
Steven, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

2nd time staying here, 1st time in the cabins, lots of room, bonus having a kettle and fridge unlike another camp down the road that we stayed the night before. Bathrooms always clean and conveniently located.

Exactly as described- wonderful location with spectacular views.
Melody, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

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.
Krystil, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

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.

Beautiful location. The bell tent was great! Well-equipped clean and spacious. Staff were friendly and efficient. We would love to stay again!
Jessica, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We rented the family cottage and it was the best. Had an excellent time and it was very clean. There is a food truck as well. The camp at lake hawea was by far our fav stay. Will visit again. - canada.

10/10 Exceptional

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.

The little cabin I stayed in was great and had fab facilities within it and the best view of the lake. The bathroom facilities could have done with being updated
Alexandra, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Lake Hawea is stunning. Sitting on the deck of our large canvas tent, glass of wine in hand looking up at the night sky was fabulous. The tent was very comfortable and well set up. The only negative being the walk to the loo in the middle of the night.

Toilets need an upgrade and the kitchens by the tents need a microwave

We had a late arrival check in and everything was prepared for us in an envelope with my name. Really easy and convenient.

Didn’t come to camp; stopover. Slept in Denver tent for one night. It was pretty magical. Cozy bed.
Anne Marie, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

This was a fun adventure. I’d rate it higher because it was very good considering it was camping in a tent. But it was not a hotel nor was it intended to be a hotel. I’d definitely stay again. The bed and pillows were comfortable. We were right next to the lake.

Glamping!

We had a good, comfortable glamping experience at Lake Hawea. The tent was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the area is beautiful. Check in was easy and friendly. The heated mattresses were definitely a bonus!

Nicest camp site we have stayed at. Highly recommend the bell tent glamping!
ed, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Fun glamping experience!

Will definitely stay here again! Beautiful location on the lake and only a 5min walk to town. The bell tent was very comfy and clean, the kitchen had everything we needed including a refrigerator, and the bathrooms and showers were great. We loved swimming in the lake, having dinner by the fire pit, and grabbing a latte from the food truck in the morning.
Kimberly, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This is a gem! Originally not excited about no en-suite, but the view and access to the lake were unbeatable! Walking to the shared amenities (shower and toilet) took nothing away from the beautiful view that was unobstructed by tents, campers, cars. The deck and chairs were most comfortable as was the loft bed. What a wonderful find
