The blue buildings, each containing two self-contained tourist flats, were trucked from the Queenstown Lakeview Holiday Park to replace five deteriorating cabins which had been at the Wanaka park since the early 1960s and were recently removed.
The replacement flats are an interim measure while the Queenstown Lakes District Council camping ground strategy 2006 is reviewed, and are on short-term lease to the Wanaka park.
Six new cabins are being built for the Queenstown park by Auckland company Rhino Portable Buildings, which has had a long association with the QLDC and also built the blue units 11 years ago.
The first of the new cabins, which are being built in Queenstown, will be on site in the next couple of weeks.
Mrs Campbell hoped to have the relocated tourist flats at the Wanaka park operational again by Easter, once verandas had been built.
