Summary: A great spot for those who don't mind camping condidtions, simplicity, and a charming countriside vibe (I hope it will be me one day). Beatiful location with lots of picturesque walks and perfect for those who take Remutaka cycling trail. The facilities are modest considering the price but the host is friendly and accomodating. Unfortunately for us, light sleepers, the night was windy and the metal cover of the bunkhouse was a bit too noisy to get a good rest. Nonetheless, overall, it was a great experience!

Summary: Myself and hubby enjoyed our stay for our 1 year wedding anniversary. The weather was perfect for a few drinks next to the outdoor fire pit then a hot outdoor bath under the stars just topped it off! Hosts were amazing and very helpful coming down to help us with heating the bath. Cabin was warm and bed and pillows were supper comfortable! We were gutted we only booked one night. We will definitely be back!

Summary: We had a lovely stay, got in slightly later than planned after walking at the Pinnacles. Found the location very easily with the signage and had a lovely time in front of the pre made outdoor fire. Will definitely book again!
