I love the fact that the staff are so friendly and their dog was super sweet 🥰

Shayla New Zealand

The place is amazing. It is s the perfect spot to stay if you are looking for hikes, mountain bike or staying in nature. It is in the middle of the mountains. Easy to park, the hiking tracks are just across the road, the famous walking/biking tunnel and mines are just close there. And the hot pools are awesome, especially during the cold nights with clear weather. Thank you so much, Annita.

Lovely welcome and great location right next to walks and the rail trail

Wendy New Zealand

The host is very friendly. She gave us some tips and showed us the facilities. The room was comfortable. WiFi was fine. Clean kitchenette. Location was fine. It was right across the street from Karangahake Gorge car park, but there aren't any shops around (tip: bring food/drinks). There are couple of cafes/restaurants 10-15mins drive.
