RVing At Empty Winter Campgrounds | Kai Iwi Lakes, New Zealand

I move to a Department of Conservation campground which sounded amazing on the Campermate App, but also sounded busy and a little confusion on how to book a site. It's called the Kai Iwi Lakes and is north of Dargaville, New Zealand. Turning up, it was empty. So quiet! Turns out there is usually a custodian staying at the Pinehills Campground, which also has showers. But if no one's there, you can park your RV anywhere and pay later. There were a few powered sites, but since I have a good solar power set-up, I went for the cheaper non-powered site. The custodian recommended parking the caravan at the top of a hill, which is somewhere I wouldn't have considered going, as I'd worry I'd get stuck in the mud or that it wasn't level enough, but apparently this is the most popular spot for RVs. I learn later that it's also close to the playground and public toilet, so if I went again, I'd go right to the end where it's more private. The Kai Iwi Lakes are 3 lakes and to walk around the main one takes about 2 hours. You can also walk to the beach from the other campground and that takes 30min.... next time :) In summer there can be up to 1300 people staying, but there were only the 3 of us while I was there. A definite advantage to winter caravanning.
