Exceeds every expectation!
This was our first time staying in a Bach and it has exceeded every single one of our expectations! Kelvin the property manager was so kind and easy to communicate with regarding all our questions. The Bach is incredibly spacious and homely, the fireplace keeps everything nice and toasty, and the facilities were all well kept and tidy. The view of Ruapehu and the stars at night can’t be beaten. We had a wonderful time, would highly recommend this property!

Weekend away
House was nice and warm with very cold weather, beds were comfy. Was renting to do a few local hikes but weather changed that so day trip to Taupo instead which property was still close enough to Do this. A++ property.

Great wee bach
This was a great wee bach to stay in while we skied for a few days. It's basic but had everything we needed and was great for the price. The fireplace kept us toasty warm. The only downside was that the shower ran out of hot water quite quickly each day (yes, the power switch to tank was on) and we aren't used to such low pressure water. But otherwise it was great and met our needs. Also, nobody was booked after us so we were allowed a 6pm checkout which was much appreciated. We would definitely book here again.

Very warm retro 70’s house. Updated kitchen and bathroom so very comfortable. Lovely comfortable queen bed and cosy single beds and bunks. The firewood was lovely and dry and burnt easily with heat. We will book and stay again. A+

Great affordable batch, ideal place for group on a ski trip
Awesome location, nice and quiet but only 10mins from ohakune. Nice homely feel, fire works well at heating the house up in winter. Comes with everything you need for a great price. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a comfortable stay while saving some money.
