★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Nothing like it ever used to be, since all the tourists showed up, litter everywhere, can barely take a photo without 30 randoms being in the shot as well. Definitely recommend.. 20years ago.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Amazing experience must visit but try not to slip on the rocks it could be harmfull and not to take down your head under the hot kersone water .
Take some easy going swim wear no place to lock the stuff .
Try to keep your personal belongings in the car .
Rest it is safe to go but before 7.30 not recommended to go if its dark .
I had a good first time xperience .

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ For something so special, it's absolutely COVERED IN TRASH. It's clearly not just visitors, it's locals hanging out here too. I have picked up a bag worth each time I visit, but there is SO much more than that. This time it was Woodstock cans and towers of pizza boxes, tissue paper, bottles, hundreds of candles (being a tidy kiwi is romantic!!), food wrappers, everything. It's filthy. Treat the land with respect or don't come here.
We came across 3 Police cars on our small time there, checking for robberies, so we could hardly relax with our Ute out of sight packed of camping and valuable outdoors.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ You're either going to love it or hate it. On the plus side the water temperature at around 36 degrees is ideal. On the minus side: the water stinks, well like kerosene; the water is not at all like clear water from a pristine geothermal source, it's a murky brown colour not appealing at all; and what's with the soapy foam floating on the surface resembling detergent? What's more there is a dirty brown insoluble sediment adhering to the rocks in the creek which are slippery and mess up your togs and difficult to remove. Access to the creek is difficult - steep sides and slippery footing. Not ideal for elderly or the disabled. My first reaction - this creek is an open sewer. Not recommended.
