I cannot say enough good things about this stay! Diane & Grant are the best - wonderful hosts, happy and down to earth people who will go above and beyond to make your stay enjoyable. Their home is beautiful and the second floor (where guests stay) is spacious and lovely, with a balcony that looks out over the lake and makes it easy to see the bright-shinning stars at night. It's a little off the beaten path yet not hard to find with a little help from them, which was perfect for us. There are number of things to do within an hour drive, so it felt very much like a slice of country heaven within reach of a city if you need it. While we were there, our rental car got totaled (we were not in it at the time), and Diane & Grant were amazing in helping us get to our activity the next morning and later get a replacement car. We couldn't have done it without them! And it gave us some extra time to get to know them and see what wonderful, quality people they are. Also, a bonus for dog lovers: they have an awesome dog named Baxter who happily greeted us and made us feel like one of the family! If we ever get to go back to New Zealand, we will be eager to stay with them again and revisit this beautiful area of the country!
