Fosthall Creek accommodation from NZ$172

Beautiful place. We had a wonderful time there. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Our cabin was very clean and comfortable!! Restaurant is lovely, good food, but expensive.

Room was very clean and linen smelled lovely. Young lady at reception wasn’t friendly which was disappointing. Bathroom very small but clean and restaurant staff didn’t check on us or ask to refill wine glasses. Food was okay. Not bad to stay here but don’t expect luxury

The Good: - The tiny house was very clean!!! - The hosts were great! They had the lights and heater on when we arrived, and they gave us a lovely little tour to get us settled. - The ferry ride was fun. - There was a window A/C unit and portable heaters to ensure we were comfortable. - The towels were so soft! - The main bed was comfy. Not sure about the other bed as the kids slept there. The Surprising: - There’s basically NO CELL SERVICE and no wifi. This was a problem for our group as we didn’t come prepared with any card games, etc. (It might be nice to have some provided). - The shower is in a little tent outside. I’m not sure where you’d set your clothes or towel while showering as there’s no private space to dress. Unfortunately, it wasn’t working when we were there, but the hosts allowed us to use another shower in another tiny house, but there were zero window coverings in the bathroom and the water went cold after only a few minutes. - The “1.5 baths” is actually 2 outhouses/pit toilets that you share with other groups. - Many of the window coverings were sheer (see through) and one window had no covering. The morning sun effectively woke us all up bright and early. The sheer curtains also made us uncomfortable when changing (especially when it was dark outside). - You can’t see the lake from the tiny house, but the view is still beautiful. Would we stay there again? Yes, but it wouldn’t be our first choice b/c the price seemed a bit high for the value.
