Nice place very close to the Karangahake gorge car park. Nicely presented place with a cute treehouse and a hot tub (which we didn’t use). The WiFi works well and the Chromecast on the TV is really easy to set up and we were able to stream a movie for the kids. There’s a wood burning fire in the dining area (which again we didn’t use). There was plenty of fuel, kindling, matches etc and it looked like there was a fire guard. There’s a heat pump in the lounge (remote on the wall) which worked well. There was also a safety gate that could be pulled across the kitchen which would be good if you have very young kids. The kitchen is well supplied and the owner left a carton of fresh milk which was a nice touch. We broke an ornament while we were there and Mike and Lesley were cool about it when we let them know which was great.
We only stayed one night but I’d recommend it as somewhere to stay a for longer.
