Kiwi Park Review
This popular motel and holiday park is just a moment's walk from the Matakitaki River and 15-minute walk from the shops, pubs, and cafés in Murchison. There's something for everyone with a large array of accommodation, from self-contained family units to standard cabins and campsites. It's close to swimming, white-water activities, trout fishing, and walking tracks. There's an animal park for the kids, where evening shows of sheep shearing and working farm dogs provide insight into local life.
