This is a nice place with lots of style, and Victoria is a very attentive hostess. We stayed on one of the coldest nights of the year, and found that even this 100-year-old character home can keep a whole family comfortable with the right approach. We unfortunately had Internet trouble, but Victoria was extremely responsive in helping to (remotely) sort it out from her end; turned out to be an apparent ISP outage rather than anything that we (or she) could really influence.
Also: I can second Victoria's recommendations around food in Ohakune. The vegetarian coffee place has been replaced by a toastie shop now, but Utopia next door makes great food + an amazing gingernut latte. The Blind Finch has got to be one of the best burger places in ALL NEW ZEALAND, and this is coming from a well-traveled Wellingtonian burger + craft beer connoisseur. With those two places plus the chocolate eclair shop... I'm going to drive well out of my way to eat in Ohakune next time I'm anywhere near! Thanks again to our hosts for everything.
