Location
The camp is on the shore of Lake Hawea, a 20-minute drive from Wanaka and just over an hour from Queenstown. Cromwell and Arrowtown are 49 km away. Free private parking is available on site.
Amenities
Services include laundry, 30 minutes of free WiFi, bike hire, and a tour desk. The camp has a children's playground, family rooms, and non-smoking accommodations. Fire extinguishers and smoke alarms are fitted in all units.
“The Camp - Lake Hawea presents a compelling proposition for a South Island escape, particularly its Denver tents which offer a surprisingly comfortable and atmospheric glamping experience right on the lake. The location itself is a significant draw, boasting spectacular lake views and direct access, all within easy reach of Wanaka's amenities. It's this blend of natural beauty and considered campsite comforts that makes a stay here feel particularly well-judged.”
