Awastone is Awesome!

Run by Tracie and her son Jack, Awastone is a River rafting/kayak/private campground family business going for three generations. The location was a perfect stop from Rotorua/Taupo on the way to Wellington on our road trip in New Zealand.
Tracie, Jack (River guide) and all their staff were so welcoming.
Our campsite was right on the Rangitikei River front. The view was amazing!
We chose the 1-1.5 hour guided River kayak tour with Jack. It was great fun and plenty of time to try for our first time. Kayaking started by the campsites so no wasted time driving to a put in. Tracie took pictures of us from a bridge right before she picked us up and took us back to the campsite. The frittata, desert and coffee afterward was excellent!
Campground has WiFi, hot showers, kitchen, laundry and private hot tub rental.
