TECT Park Freedom Camping — Hotel in North Island

Update - I was there on 23-24 September, and the showers are still out of order. Also noticed there's no sink inside the toilets, so folks were brushing teeth at the sink outside visible to the public. No privacy. Overall felt safe as many CCTV cameras were around. Disappointed as the showers are being gutted out and redone, so no hot showers available. I got my Go Penny key/token, was keen to have my first hot shower here using that, but will have to be next time! There's a white gate that closed the site (by the showers) to freedom camp, and a sign by the showers saying no freedom camping from 14 - 20 September. No message or announcement on their website about this. A builder is there gutting out the showers. There's freedom camping park available near the entrance, where only toilets are available. No rubbish bin available, take all your rubbish...

Amazing Freedom camping ground with fantastic facilities. For people staying in tents you can stay here for 2 nights in a row max. For Self Contained it’s 4.

We arrived around 5pm and the site was very quiet, assuming the weather had hampered a lot of people’s camping adventures. Very clean and well maintained areas. Everyone here on the night we stayed were very respectful of each others space

These grounds have a KiwiCamp pod where you can use a kiwiCash tag to make full use of the facilities, which include: Hot Showers, Laundry, cleaning sinks and electric cooking.

You can use the toilets free of charge and there is a basic Sink and Out Tap on the side of the pod.

There’s even picnic benches scattered around where you can pitch next too. And a few undercover benches too! 100% recommend this location, will hopefully get the chance...

Such a awesome place for freedom camping and other activities..been parked up here a few times and now I finally have a go penny key for showers and stuff and Yaya..the showers are totally wicked, good pressure, plenty of hot water and for $2-5min is well and truly worth it..traveling in my Mazda MPV and the good thing about the place is that you can stop in any time day and night 24hrs and chill out.,got there at 2.30am this morning and then straight to the shower..just one thing that they do need is a plastic like hard screen or curtain to keep the water off the hooks and table..otherwise you gotta go there and see for yourself..awesome..and the Rangers are...
