Stayed on a powered dog friendly site which was all as expected.
Great location but unfortunately the reception we received was less than warm. Got the feeling that we were putting them out even though the park was not busy.
Love Russell and will be back, regardless.

Highly recommend! Well located in beautiful Russell.
With everything you need nearby there's not many places better than this!

We have just arrived back from our camping stay for five nights over the new year period. We loved the location. We parked up and then never used the car once. We walked and took the ferry everywhere. Fantastic being so close to Russell township and to the lovely Long Beach.
Our site was great and very spacious.
Yes it was busy and noisy at times but it was normally shut down not long after 10pm. We knew we were there in the peak time so we expected it. The facilities were great and very clean. Lovely showers. The playground was very cool and having the jumping pillow was good fun for the kids. Awesome being able to buy cold drinks and ice blocks / ice creams from the reception and they were all really reasonable too. The ladies on reception were also very friendly. Check in was a breeze. The internet is fantastic in the campground too.
The only thing I will say was the pathway to the side gate also meant to be a road within the campground was taken over by residents of the annuals. We had to side step around kids bikes and guide ropes and at one stage a kids paddling pool. If anyone had a pram or wheelchair they wouldn't be able to get through as well as there is no way you could get a car through so this is something that needs to be addressed. Just comes down to common courtesy.
We thank you Top 10 Russell for a great stay and we look forward to returning once again soon.

Nice, friendly staff. It was helpful when we were selecting a site to suit our camper. Short walk to main street area. Clean facilities on site.

La cabaña exelente 👌 muy completa, baño muy bonito y la cama muy buena con un anafe de 2 hornilla a gas y todos los elementos de cosina.la pasamos excelente.

Schöner Platz, vor allem mit Kindern. Bei dem nicht ganz günstigen Preis erwarte ich mehr und bessere Ausstattung in der Küche. Alles andere ist top.

We stayed in the caravan park and used the facilities which were clean and very well maintained. Went for a night walk and saw a kiwi about 200 meters from where we were. Had a weka running round the sites. Showers were excellent

Grand camping avec une immense aire de jeux pour les enfants. Espaces communs toujours aussi propres que dans tout les Top 10 que j'ai précédemment visité. Seul petit bémol : on n'a pas voulu nous donner un grand emplacement pour notre camping car sous prétexte que le camping était plein (nous étions en hiver) et quand nous sommes allés nous garer, le camping était vide (photo à l'appui).

A great place to go to just chill. Nice cafes and restaurants close bye. Short walk to town and safe swimming beaches. Camp, glamp or use a cabin, something for everyone that won't stretch the budget. Friendly staff. Clean facilities

Great little park, beautiful bird sounds! Not sure about the 5 minute timers on the showers considering you pay so much to stay here, particularly as the first few minutes are cold. You can switch them back on after 1 minute, but the beeping noise isn’t very relaxing on a weekend away.

We just used a powered site for our campervan, but all amenities were fantastic, the kids especially loved the playground. It was awesome seeing all the weka around too. We will be back, maybe even hire a cabin next time...

Russell is a nice little and quiet town in Northland. The Campground lies on a hill near the town center(500m). The Campground is tidy and quiet. We stayed on one of the elevated sites with a great view of the town and it is absolutely worth the money.

We have visited this Top 10 site 3 times over the past 10 years. The people at the reception are very pleasant and helpful. Our last stay was on site No2. It is a very private and spacious plot. All of the facilities were clean and generous in size and numbers to support the site. From our site, there we a multitude of birds sing, and we even heard on 3 occasions a KIWI calling. We stayed for 3 days and enjoyed our stay

Had an awesome stay at this great campsite! Perfect location with stunning beaches nearby and an easy walk to Russell township. Can’t wait to stay again

Our favorite Top 10 Holiday Park in New Zealand. Love the kitchen and BBQ area looks over the playground so you can keep an eye on the kids while you cook. Super family friendly , clean and very close to Long Beach which is fantastic for small kids.
