The Grumpy Trout Lodge is a lovely getaway if you’re looking to do all of the Tongariro National Park things but also amazing if you just want to chill and relax with the sound of the forest! The river is your back yard and the lodge is cosy and homely as is all the creature comforts! Bonus being able to take the furry members of the pack and they get to run around with resident pooch Ziggy! Hosts are welcoming and friendly, highly recommend a stay at the Grumpy Trout Lodge! (It’s not that grumpy!!!)
