Located on the main highway between Queenstown and Te Anau/Milford Sound, Kingston Holiday Park offers motel rooms and historic cottages.

All holiday park guests have access to a fully equipped communal kitchen with cooktops, cooking equipment and a pizza oven. There is also a free BBQ area with gas and a communal coin-operated laundry. Upon checking in I was greeted warmly by a gentleman who also gave me a lot of great information regarding the area. The cabin was a bit close to the road but I had no issues with noise as traffic was minimal at night. The unit is newer and had everything I needed for my stay.
