Pin Oak Flat

Pin Oak Flat is one of four designated camping areas within McLaren Falls Park, a 190-hectare pastoral and horticultural reserve set alongside Lake McLaren near Tauranga, in the Bay of Plenty.

The site accommodates tents, caravans, and campervans on unpowered sites, with toilet and electric BBQ facilities on-site.

Pin Oak Flat serves as the park's central shower hub — shower facilities for all campers across the park are located here, and are free for registered campers.

The park operates on a first-come, first-served basis with no specific site reservations, and the maximum stay is three nights. Dogs are not permitted anywhere in the park.
