Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Really basic camp site with basic facilities. What more do you need for $15 per night. As a frequent camper I've paid more for less. Flush toilets and a warm (free) shower are excellent in my books. The hosts were very friendly and available for any questions, advice. They kitchen area could do with a a little updating and a coat of paint, the toilets too. They are getting there and working on it. Overall experience was vert satisfactory - I'll be back and recommend to others.

Nur non-powered sites für 12$ pp auf einer ruhig gelegenen Wiese eines Bauernhofes. Sehr netter Besitzer. Es gibt eine große Dusche und Toiletten, die sauber waren. Aufenthaltsraum mit Klavier, Büchern & Sitzgelegenheiten. Küchenzeile mit Toaster, Wasserkocher & Spülbecken. Nicht groß, aber tut ihren Zweck. Außenbereich mit zusätzlichen Sitzmöglichkeiten.
Kostenloser W-lan Zugang, funktioniert allerdings nur in einem gewissen Bereich.
Klare Empfehlung für alle die es ruhig mögen!

Stayed at the cowshed campground on my way north. Was so happy I did! I was greeted by a friendly host, got set up in my tent with lots of room around me and a picnic table to use! There were 4 other tent campers but we had a whole field between us so lots of space for privacy. I loved the communal space and bathroom. There were places to sit for groups or individuals and a small library of books and magazines. Would definitely visit again!

My husband phone and asked if they had a powered site. They confirmed they did but when we turned up NO POWERED SITES. Two toilets, one little wash basin, lounge with table and a separate shower. Shower worked well. Tea towels looked as if they had never been washed. It was an old cow shed originally and my husband reckoned he could still smell cows. We went into Kaikohe for breakfast as we could not stand using the little kitchen. They had a map of the world on the wall and I was surprised to see how many people had stayed there. No doubt few would have returned. The worst camping ground on our tour of Northland. It was actually expensive for what little it provided.
