The Reefton Visitor and Service Centre is located at 67-69 Broadway, Reefton, formerly the premise of the Reefton Visitor Centre.

In November 2022, the service centre and visitor centre were merged. The amalgamation of the two service centers was consulted on as part of Council’s 2021 – 2031 Long Term Plan .

A building consent was granted in June 2023 to make improvements to the layout of the facility. These improvements were complete in August 2023, with the upgrade works and the new library space available to the Reefton community shortly after completion.
