Great location, small but had all we needed for a few days on the mountain. No double glazing but the heater was very effective and the shower beautifully hot. Thanks for having us.

Cozy wee cottage is a perfect description- except there are little hideaways and even spending a rainy day with two kids here was great. Host was very easy to communicate with and was super kind when I made a mistake with our booking. Will definitely stay here again!

Great location in Ohakune close to Turoa.Quite small and fairly close to other chalets, but totally fine for our family of four.Looks a bit tired in areas but was comfortable enough.Kitchen could have done with a few supplies like gladwrap and baking paper.Worth noting that the railing on the upstairs mezzanine area is very low. I'd be nervous staying here with very young children.Overall a decent place to stay.
