Mark’s place and hospitality blew our minds away. The other reviews are right to say that it’s much nicer than what the photos could capture. There were more than enough space for the 5 of us (and 1 toddler) and it felt like home. Our toddler was happy exploring in the garden and would have enjoyed the fruits if they were in season. The delicious fresh bread and coffee beans are not only a nice touch, but something we looked forward to. It is only a 10 minutes drive to Rotorua town while the vicinity to Redwood forests makes it serene. We had the pleasure of meeting Mark and could tell that he finds joy in making guests feel as comfortable as possible. We will definitely stay there again, highly recommended!
