Reviews of Slab Hut Creek Camping Area
W.
Great DOC campsite. Clean toilets on site, few fireplaces which were super handy on a cold night. And one pizza owen as well!
Creek near by invites for splash or gold panning for enthusiast prospectors.
Lot of space for bigger RVs and easy access with tow caravans as well. There is just on smaller bridge to cross on the way there but that has 3.5t axle weight limit.
A.
Lucky to have perfect weather. Had our cold pan, not sure why but fun anyway! Nice mix of private parks and open areas ☺️
S.
Really enjoyed it here. Nice river spots. Sandflies always a problem but worth it. Parking good. . Serious people panning for gold here bit mot much show for their efforts.
D.
Beautiful campsite right next to a creek. No sandflies but bees and bumblebees. Toilets are OK but no drinking water available. I extended my stay to simply relax in the hammock at this nice spot
M.
Lovely DoC camp. Gold panning. Toilets.
l.
Its a good place for people to camp and fossick around as long as they don't dig in the banks as i saw someone doing
O.
Private parking/camping spaces, flushing toilet, water readily available (which says to be boiled). We really enjoyed staying here apart from how we got attacked by mosquitos!!
G.
We loved this place! The day we went, it was less crowded, stunning ambiance and peaceful. Very well maintained by DOC and would definitely visit again!
J.
Nice wee DOC campgrounds. Quiet area, great place to kick back and relax
E.
Great place to camp and pan for gold. Toilets available, no drinking water.
R.
One of the better setups for camping and fossicing for gold
V.
One of the best DOC Camps I have come across. Plenty of spots & right beside a river. Well away from the road (although only 800m) easy road in. Satelite TV worked although limited internet.
L.
Just such a stunning spot! Amazing little individual alcoves to back into, and some even have walkways down to the creek. You can sit and bathe in the creek (no soap!). Lots of sandflies (like all the other camp spots). The walk along the creek is easy and beautiful. There are flushing toilets and they're clean. Just a note at night it's a dark walk through the bush to the toilets with with lots of bugs. One of the prettiest camp spots we visited.
D.
Nice, quiet spot, just out of Reefton. Did a bit of gold panning, which was a bit of fun.
J.
A really nice DOC camp with individual bays for each campervan making for a private and sheltered camping area but also with a large open space available for groups to camp together. It's the first DOC camp I have been to that has a pizza oven that you can use as part of the facilities. Great walking track up the river but no phone signal unless you walk back to the main road
A.
Very beautifully set out place Great beach trees Water on ( non drinkable ) Flushing toilets Pizza oven Barbecues Rubbish bins. Set right next to the river, Can find a few colours just up from the camp in the river on the parpa bottom , Recommend it Remember the bug spray
C.
Gold panning camp toilets and sectioned off overnight parking
N.
We.loved this spot. So peaceful and when we woke up there were some locals who just into their gear to look for gold in the river. It's worth stopping if you have a doc camp pass. Toilets are kept well and are flushing
T.
Wasn’t too many sandflys, but it could have been the weather. I didn’t find any gold in about 10pans. Didn’t seem like the type of ground to have any gold, was hoping to set up my sluice, but the rocks were huge, I didn’t feel like trying to remove any.
j.
one of the nicest places around. basic campground but thats all you need. private spots. good value.
S.
Clean toilets, beautiful spot, nice private bays for campers to set up in, noice.
J.
Quiet and peaceful. Good place for primary school age kids to play in a small creek, pre schoolers would have to be watched well. Toilets clean. Not many sand flies!!
S.
Nice quiet place to camp on the way to the west coast from Nelson
R.
Great DOC site, definitely for people who love the outdoors and can manage without a cafe and supermarket close at hand.
I.
Beautiful place which is very remote and peaceful. Has toilet facilities, the road down is very rough but adds to the natural scenery.
B.
Take bug spray but fantastic basic camping ground. Make sure you read up on gd panning
