Lovely country setting, surrounded by animals, and only minutes away from Oakune town centre. Fantastic breakfast and very relaxed and friendly host. Couldn't be more pleased
The owner is really warming and welcoming on our arrival. The entrance to the property and garden is fantastic. The room was very clean and tidy. The bathroom was great. It has a really good shower which was well needed after our Tongariro crossing. The breakfast was great. Overall we give this place a hundred percent. It ticked all the boxes and we would highly recommend this place to anyone travelling to this area. From Chad & Jenna.
The hosts are are such nice people.
Being a kiwi I’m not used to sharing a lounge and a big dining room table with others but when I got there it was what made it so special. A beautiful setting hosted by lovely people. Best place I have stayed in in ohakune
Lovely setting in own quiet grounds, yet convenient for town and visits to the national park.
Heather and Pete are welcoming and very helpful with visitor information.

The personalised atmosphere and lovely surroundings.
Lovely place to stay, with stunning scenery all around and very comfortable rooms. Heather and Peter were very friendly and welcoming throughout the stay. There is a great breakfast selection - a perfect way to prepare for a day on the mountains. Would highly recommend the lodge to anyone.
