3 Bedroom House in Rangataua

The Mountain Greenie offers a chance to relax in a modern house with a stunning rural setting. It backs onto a bush reserve and looks over the forest at Mt Ruapehu. Originally a railway township Rangataua is a charming town where we walk and ride our bikes on the streets. The trains don't stop these days but you can wave from the deck! Five minutes to Ohakune or the Junction, nothing is far away if needed. In just over 20 minutes you can be in the Turoa carpark!
Close to ski fields, the Old Coach Road mountain bike trail, bush walks in a World Heritage Area and the epic Tongariro Crossing day walk. Also canoeing, kayaking and rail car trips within an hour. Enjoy Cafe's, shops or the library in Ohakune or just chillax at home. There's something for everyone.
Built as a prototype house with a double wall cavity, it's level of insulation is twice the industry standard. It is fitted with thermal blinds, natural flooring (cork, bamboo, linoleum and wool carpets), recycled wooden benches and dining table. The kitchen and bathroom cabinetry is made locally and with beautiful birch plywood. The macrocarpa seating on the large sunny deck was milled just down the road and the outdoor baths will amaze!
In the house you can plug your music into the speakers (standard 3.5mm jack), watch a movie (bring a dvd or USB stick), play board games or flick through magazines. There's also a house information booklet if you'd like to know more about the house you're staying in, how it functions and why it looks like it does.
In the garage there's foosball, table tennis, a spectator couch and a drying room (to help keep the humidity down in the house!) and room to store all your bikes and skis.
The Mountain Greenie is designed to be both a learning opportunity and a wonderful getaway. If you're up for either of those things then it may be just what you're looking for.

Summary: Loved the Mountain Greenie. Really cozy and warm and full equipped with everything you'd need. The host Kether was easy and helpful to correspond with and the place and location suited us perfectly. Would definitely be interested in returning again for another ski or cycling weekend. Thank you again for having us. Enjoy the solar system puzzle we left for others to enjoy.

Summary: We traveled from WA so my kids could see snow and experience snow activities. Unfortunately the weather wasn’t good and it got worse as time went by. The Mountain Greenie was a saving grace. For the activities available at the garage and board games were perfect for those wet days. I recommend stretching before you play twister.

Summary: 2nd time at the Greenie and if anything enjoyed it more than before as used the outside bath this time! And the games room got great use too, lots of fun. Beautiful views and amazing insulated warm house mean you can't go wrong staying here. Unless you really need WiFi, but that's made clear in the listing.
