Maryanne and Russel provided my buddy and I with the best possible experience. They went out of their way at every turn to make sure we were well taken care of. The evening we checked in, Russel sat down with us and planned out a perfect adventure for the following day on a map he provided. He even took us to a creek bed at night to get a glimpse of some unique little glow worms which we thoroughly enjoyed. We got to tour their garden and orchards and even feed a few snacks to their adorable cattle. Don’t miss out on the waterfall hike, it was spectacular. I was in total heaven!! Their eco-pods are adorable and cozy, the beds were so comfy, the kitchen and bathroom accommodations were spectacular-the water pressure in that shower 👌🏻 was amazing. Maryanne baked these delicious ginger crunch treats for us, which was completely unexpected but 100% enjoyed. I even got a little cooking lesson from Maryanne on how to prepare perfect NZ poached eggs. Until next time Maryanne and Russel, I’m looking forward to spending time in your paradise again soon! Thank you for everything.
