Comfortable Stay

I stayed in a motel room with a kitchen and bathroom, and I was impressed with how nice and well-equipped the room was. The beds were super comfy, making it easy to relax after a long day of exploring. However, I did wish for more power outlets for charging devices.

Modern Facilities

The bathrooms at the park were surprisingly modern and clean, which I really appreciated. The shower had excellent pressure, and the stalls were spacious. Overall, it felt like a refreshing experience compared to typical campground bathrooms.

Great Cooking Facilities

The communal kitchen was impressively well-stocked with utensils and cookware! I loved the outdoor cooking shelter with BBQs and picnic tables. It really made meal prep a joy, especially with such amazing views of the landscape while I cooked.

I had a wonderful stay at Glentanner Park with my family! The cabins were reasonably priced and perfect for our group. The location is stunning, especially if you plan to explore Mount Cook. While the communal facilities were a bit crowded during peak times, everything was clean and well taken care of. However, I did find the rooms somewhat basic for the price we paid.

My stay at Glentanner Park was a wonderful experience, especially for those looking to explore the stunning Mount Cook area. The location is fantastic, right near the popular hikes. The rooms were basic but surprisingly comfortable. While the dining facilities were a bit cramped during peak times, the food was quite nice. It wasn't the cheapest option for what you get, but overall, it provided good value for a short stay.

I had a mixed experience at the campsite. Despite the beautiful surroundings and well-designated private areas for camping, I was disappointed by the lack of adequate facilities due to a large school group taking over almost everything. The cleanliness was noteworthy, but the long queues for the bathrooms detracted from the overall enjoyment of our stay.

We had a wonderful time camping at this park. The view was absolutely stunning from our tent, and the amenities were just excellent, including hot showers and a well-equipped kitchen. However, our experience was marred slightly by the large school group that took over the communal areas, making it difficult to access shared facilities, particularly the bathrooms.

We had an amazing time heli hiking with breathtaking views of Mount Cook, along with the fantastic expertise of our guide Matt. The experience was not only thrilling but also safe and well-organized. However, our initial experience at the campsite wasn't great; we faced challenges with the facilities being overwhelmed by a large group, which made it less enjoyable.

The lunch at the cafe after our hike was delicious and satisfying, a perfect way to end the adventure. Sadly, dining options at the campsite were limited and tedious due to the crowd.

The facilities at the park included a clean and tidy kitchen and living area, although they were crowded and limited due to the school group. At the dorm, the common area was warm and welcoming with a fire.
