We so enjoyed our time at Jo and Ken's place. Although the space is compact it is extremely very well designed and fun to stay in. We have not stayed in a better location for proximity to the lake, the beach and the shops. Milford is a hidden gem just north of central Auckland. The breakfast provided was lovely and the fresh croissants from the best bakery in town was a wonderful treat. We highly recommend staying with Jo and Ken. The walk down to the lake every morning was a great way to start the day.
