Driving along the picturesque coastline past vineyards and boats anchored in the harbor, up a tree lined grassy drive, then meet Richie and Kate, the littles (one of which just saved up her chore money and aquired a pony named Rascal) and the dog, throw your bags in the back of his 4 wheeler for delivery up to your pod, then hike 15 min along a fresh and adventurous track through beautiful forests with glimpses along the way of the bay - and emerge out onto your deck, with your wood fired hot tub, fresh meats and cheeses fruits and salads in your dinner basket, awaiting your cooking prowess. Make no mistake, this is a little more camping than glamping, but if you know how to start a fire, cook a steak, and enjoy incredible sunset hikes and magical views of the sunrise from your surprisingly comfortable and well appointed pod bed - this is the spot for you. Enjoy it before all the supermodels from New York start doing photo shoots there! Definitely order up Kate's wonderfully delicious provisions basket, take a day drive into town for some smoked Akaroa salmon, and mainly - enjoy the sweet sounds of your winged neighbors as you sit in the natural spring water fed wood fire hut tub, along with a glass of the white from French Farm Winery next door. Do a minimum of two nights, so that you can perfect your hot tub temp, and fully relax into the rhythms of this little slice of Narnia.
