Wanaka Top 10 Holiday Park

Check in was great, the lady on reception was super nice and helpful. I was staying in a basic cabin - basically just a bed, small table and chairs, towels, a fan and a heater. They have pot boxes with everything you need for the kitchen available to hire for free. Every other holiday park I've stayed at charged money and a bond for these, so that was awesome. They will also provide you with tea/coffee and fresh milk. I was also delighted to discover electric blankets on the bed! Nice to toast it up a bit before you jump in, the bed was comfy and the covers were warm. There was also a blanket if needed. The park itself is lovely and quiet, away from the hubbub of town and seemingly protected from the wind. Super spacious too - it was the only stay of my entire trip that I wasn't a bit anxious about getting a park/fitting into my park/someone else blocking my park. You have all the grassed area to park next to the cabin, as well as a picnic table and outdoor chairs on your little deck. Cabin 2 is mere steps away from the shared facilities so super easy to pop over to the bathrooms or get some boiling water for a tea. Despite being so close to the facilities it was pretty quiet, other than the odd group of people talking as they walked past, all I could hear was the birds and the wind. So peaceful. There are semi-obscured views down to the lake and also beautiful mountains behind you. It's a short walk down into town, the park's location is also closer to Mt Aspiring National Park so you don't need to drive back through town to head off for a hike, which is nice! The bathrooms were nice and warm, showers had ample dry space for your stuff, and 2 communal hairdryers. The laundry was amazing! The nicest laundry I've come across in my travels, machines in good working order and the whole area was just clean and well presented. I particularly liked the number of hooks at this park - that sounds so random but hooks are so simple yet so handy, especially when you're travelling! There were lots of hooks in my cabin, and lots in the bathrooms. It just seemed like a very thoughtful extra touch by the park owners. There is also a car wash and vacuum bay. The price was really good for my little cabin, I was very comfortable and would definitely stay here again or recommend to friends and family.
