The cabin was located on a calm riverfront with a beautiful tree forest. As soon as we entered the cabin, we felt an oasis of calm. The fresh wood smell of the cabin and the trickle of the river. The place is minimalist and a private modular cabin bedroom. You have access to your own kitchen and bathroom in a separate space. We were able to drive to Whangarei waterfalls quite easily. We enjoyed visiting Whangarei and Hundertwasser Art Gallery. It was also the perfect launchpad for visiting Tutukata and Poor Knights Islands. I strongly recommend the walk to Whale Bay.
