This is a smallish friendly holiday park, RIGHT ON the lake itself (meeting room is 4 metres from lake edge!!). 
10 minutes walk/1minute drive to central city.
Plenty cafes, restaurants, bars etc. within walking distance.
Quick access to main road out of town to Paeroas or Kaimais!

Most of our briefings will be held here at the holiday park, except for the first one on Friday 3 November.
We would like everyone to make their base here, so we can have lots of fun and camaraderie during the week.   However if you prefer 5 star Motels, there are plenty.
This is a very central site, and the price is unbeatable in Rotorua, conditional on booking immediately. 
This is a public campground – if you don’t book early you could miss out.
Many alternatives are already nearly booked out now. 
Here is the positive – Book early and we could have the whole campground to ourselves.   The owners will give us exclusive use IF we have enough early bookings. 
Full capacity is 60-70 people, so first in first served.

SO – make a booking NOW, work in with others to fill your tourist flat/cabin, and you will have a very economical stay.

Why not make a family holiday of it, and bring your whanau!
