Omakau Recreation Reserve Camping Ground sits within the council sports reserve in the small Central Otago settlement of Omakau, on the northwest bank of the Manuherikia River between Alexandra and Ranfurly.

The campground is a popular stopover for riders on the Otago Central Rail Trail and offers tent sites, basic cabins, a well-equipped kitchen, showers, wi-fi, and vehicle access. Dogs are welcome on a leash.

The reserve setting means campers are adjacent to a golf course, astroturf courts, squash courts, cricket and rugby grounds, and a children's playground. Reviewers note the old-style country New Zealand atmosphere, clean facilities, and friendly management.

The campground also serves as the venue for the annual Central Otago A&P Show.
