Henry Creek Campsite

Henry Creek Campsite is a DOC-managed site set along Milford Road, approximately 23 km north of Te Anau within Fiordland National Park.

Positioned on the shores of Lake Te Anau, it is the closest DOC campsite to Te Anau on the scenic drive toward Milford Sound. Small, private sites are tucked among regenerating beech forest, with some offering direct lake views and access to the shoreline.

The campsite offers non-powered tent and campervan sites on a first-come, first-served basis, with bookings also available for the main season. Facilities are basic, with a public toilet on site.

No fires are permitted at any time, and dogs and other pets are not allowed within Fiordland National Park.

The terrain is somewhat pebbly and uneven, which can make tent pegging a challenge, though the setting is peaceful and well-suited to those seeking a quiet lakeside retreat.
