Blackball District Community Centre offers affordable camping for motorhomes, caravans and tents on the West Coast. The site charges $10 per person per night for self-contained vehicles and tent campers, with powered sites available for an additional fee. Children under 10 stay free. Facilities include coin-operated showers, washing machines and dryers, plus public toilets. The ablution block operates 9am to 9pm daily. Stays are limited to three days unless approved by the committee. Sites operate on a first-come, first-served basis, with payment via envelope in the letterbox. The centre itself occupies a historic 1910 building originally constructed as the coal mine manager's residence, making it a convenient stopover for travellers exploring the West Coast or walking the Paparoa Track.
