Exactly what we wanted; a unique, peaceful, nature-oriented location, off the beaten path. The deck was a beautiful oasis and the lull of the cicadas and NZ birds (Nature's music) were the perfect symphony to listen to at all hours. Hikes were plentiful and the views spectacular. We spent two nights at the HUT, taking day hikes on the trails. We also walked both nights 20 min up the track, to the Furneaux Lodge for drinks and dinner. Overall, we felt honored to experience this piece of heaven.
