We had a great 3 night stay as part of a mtb trip. Lucky with the weather. Hilton right across the road was a bonus as there were quite a few of us in town at various locations. The place was quite big with a big section and a garage for bike storage. Gary was extremely easy to deal with and came at quick notice when I locked myself out. Blackball is unique and well worth a visit. If you’re riding or walking the Paparoa spend a bit of time there.
