A lovely "cottage" in a great location.
This is a wonderful place in an attractive location, handy for us with our interest in the area. The only negative aspect is not having gas in the gas bottle for the barbeque, especially when you've planned on using it for several meals. Getting a refill isn't easy in this area!

Uninterrupted, Beautiful and Bountiful Property
It is a Beautiful house with Amazing views and very useful decking all around. Private access to the river which runs by the property. This property has an exclusive view to star gazing right on its property. We haven’t seen this kind of Milky Way before. Kids were thrilled to see so many stars. Property is secluded in the mountains, very private, uninterrupted views right from the Lounge and Main bedroom. Immaculate Kitchen and Lounge. Three Toilets and two showers makes it so convenient with bigger group like us. Dish Washer, Washing Machine and dryer came in very handy. Good quality sheets and Bedding. Overall would rate 10/10 and planning to visit again. Generous, Friendly and Kind Hosts, who go an extra mile to help.

A tremendous stay in a beautiful home…
This is a great place to stay - it surpasses the pictures in the advertisement. Host was friendly and a clear communicator. We had a lovely relaxing week here, with family joining us. Beautiful sunsets and evening meals on the deck. So close the Timber Trail - one of NZ’s great rides and a must see/do experience. The sound of the river chuckling and gurgling at the bottom of the property was a delightful accompaniment to the sounds of the native birds in the garden.

Something to consider.
We absolutely aroha this property so much that my friends are going to re-book. What I did consider though is, we paid a fee to clean, but guest still had to strip their beds and take their rubbish. That seems extremely high on top of nightly fee.

Great place to stay if you are doing the Timber trail - 25 min drive to Ongarue. Top class accommodation beautifully done inside , very roomy and clean - well appointed. The waterhole is a great place to cool down on a hot day.

Wish we had stayed longer….
Lovely, comfortable house with lots of space to spread out. Even the garage bedroom was great! The swimming hole was great for cooling off after a day’s activity. The old sawmill just along the road was really interesting. We all said we would have happily stayed a couple more nights.
