Unique accommodation in a sheep farm by a river and off the grid but with good facilities. Outdoor hot bath for dark sky stargazing ideal.

I think one dining option within 30 minutes which is okay as most would use community kitchen anyway. Great for backpackers with laundry, clothes lines, showers.

I guess $80 foesnt buy much these days but I feel this was over priced. Especially considering the locatoon and facilities. Things were clean but very basic.Hard to understand locating it beside the main highway. Signage for access to the river would have been nice....but it was clear that little effort has been made here to do much besides make money off tourists.

Fun accommodation
Stayed in the wagon which was novel. Quiet and clean and away from the traffic. Comfy beds and all essential amenities provided. We used the shower blocks at main site a few minutes away but there is a bath if you wanted one. Bring mossie spray.

Cute wagon stay near Omarama
We stayed in a cute little refurbished wagon which, while completely off-grid had all the mod cons, including wifi. And the old bath set up as a hot tub was great - soaking outside in the hot water while looking at the mountains and colourful lupins. Recommended if you want something a bit different.
