Steve's place is a an absolute gem. You will NOT find a better value in New Zealand! I stayed in th downstairs room and it was extremely spacious, quiet, and had its own entry/exit onto the courtyard over looking the lake. The kayaks were fantastic for a fun outing and the lake was lovely for a nice swim. Steve provided ample breakfast, coffee, tea, and company, in addition to much helpful commentary and recommendations. We will be back!
