Good accommodation for a large group. We really enjoyed our 2 days of stay. This is a good accommodation for families with children. We will definitely come back.
The stay was great. The lodge was beautiful! The kitchen was well equipped with the required dishes and cutlery. Sarah was kind enough to leave us a big tray of eggs. Overall a beautiful and well maintained place:)
Very convenient 5 bedrooms with bathroom for each room, lots of dishes. Good large fridge. Close to Ohakune park. We have had everything that we needed.
Great having the large kitchen and dining/lounge area. And the ensuite on each bunk room worked very well.

Nice location
It is a large accommodation. Everything is good except for the fact that guests are required to take their own sheets or sleeping bags which makes things a little bit inconvenient. Aside from this, everything is pretty awesome.

Spacious and well equiped house
We were a group of four families with three generations, and found the place very spacious for everyone. The kitchen is big and opens to the dining area and the lounge so comfortable to room our whole group. There is ensuite for each of the five bedrooms so very handy. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and thanks to the host for having us.

Amazing cottage for a large group.
Amazing cottage for a large group. Big lounges, large, fully equipped kitchen, separate bathrooms with each bunk room, kids had a lot of space 2 play. Lovely views from the balcony. Sarah was kind 2 leave eggs / butter etc for our stay, a nice touch. Clear instructions were provided on how 2 operate equipment, where 2 find things in the house (vacuum cleaners, rubbish bags, main switch, etc). I would highly recommend & would go back again.
