A cute private glamping set-up nestled in the trees alongside the Wainui River. Here, you’ll have a well-equipped outdoor kitchen with power, a cosy cabin with a comfy queen-sized bed, a hot outdoor shower and bath. Explore the beautiful Wainui river on our two-person kayak or curl up with a book and do absolutely nothing at all. There are also plenty of hikes in the area. Pets (inc horses) are welcome.
Set on a 2.6 hectare block bordering the Wainui River. The glampsite overlooks the Wainui River, saltwater marsh reserves, and neighbouring farmlands. You’ll drive along a farm track to find a gorgeous outdoor kitchen, bathroom, and cosy cabin nestled into the hill. In the summer months, we add a lotus belle tent for additional guests. We can take booking of up to four people during the summer months.

The outdoor kitchen is fully covered and has power. It’s equipped with everything you need to whip up a beautiful meal, a full fridge/freezer, camp oven and two-element stovetop, jug, lighting, cookware, serveware, as well as all the utensils you’ll need. This is camping at its finest! There’s just something so cool about preparing and eating your meals outdoors – I swear, for some reason, it just tastes better!

Festoon and solar lights will light your path to the bedroom cabin. In the cabin, you’ll find a comfy queen bed and armchair and a place to store your things.

Heating outside is by open fire. Roast marshmallows over the fire, drag the bean bags down, gaze at the stars, and enjoy being back in nature.

The bathroom consists of a hot outdoor shower and bath located near the kitchen. The perfect place to wash off after exploring the river or one of the many walks in the area. The toilet is an eco-friendly composting toilet.

You’ll have access to the river via a short stroll down a tree-covered track. Picnic here or utilise our double kayak to explore the river. You’ll be pleasantly surprised to find that a short paddle down river, and you’ll be in Tauranga Harbour with a number of islands to explore. Here you’ll also have views of Matakana Island and Mount Maunganui (Mauao). At certain times of the year, you might even find a huge black swan colony out in the harbour. Very Notebook(ish)! Paddle upstream from the glampsite, and you’ll pass under bridges and pass farmlands toward beautiful cascading waterfalls. There is lots to explore!
