Tramping in New Zealand –Huts versus Tent?

I’ll be moving in New Zealand in September on a working holiday visa. I’ll be there for a year, and during my stay I plan on doing a lot of hiking/tramping. I have an opportunity to buy an affordable, lightweight Kelty brand tent, but I’m not sure if I need it.

Is it a better value to pay for the huts or to bring along your own tent? Are there any tracks that don’t have many huts?

Does anyone know of a tent campsite for a couple? I mean something private, but within like 3/4hrs of Spokane?

My husband and I want to get out for a couple of days, just the two of us. We were thinking Priest Lake campsite, but there thend to be lots of people. Is there anything with a private beach in like the woods? We love hiking, love the woods, and we’d like to have the water close by (some beach so we could tan and do some swimming)…

    What are the 5 best camping areas on the Northern Coast of California?

    We are looking for great camping areas north of San Francisco along the coast. We want to stay fairly close to the ocean, have dogs, bikes, hiking shoes and a tent. We will go as far as the Oregon border but hopefully not that far.

    We hope to stay in 2-3 different locations with different environments.

    What are your favorite camping areas and why?

    Thanks so much!

      Good place to camp with tent in Maine?

      I’m looking for a peaceful place, preferably on/near a lake or river. Hiking and wildlife would be a plus. I do not want a place with anything electronic, like wireless internet, swimming pools, showers, cabins, or anything. I want a real, roughin it, wilderness experience. Any suggestions would be much appreciated =] thanks!
