About this property
Gorgeous Log Cabin, Outdoor Bath & Mountain Views
This property has the X-Factor! Gorgeous incredibly private and quiet Log Cabin, with sundrenched decks, tucked away and surrounded by trees and fields a park and river running by... a rural setting, yet only 600 meters to the middle of town.
Enjoy a hot bubble bath on the deck under the stars with candle light and bubbles!
(PLEASE NOTE 2ND BEDROOM IS UP A STEEP LADDER)
3 minute drive, (20 minute walk along the Maungawhero River Walkway, 100 meters from your door), to "The Junction" apres-ski bars and restaurants
In Winter the fire will be going, the house warm and cosy for your arrival... relax and enjoy all the comforts of home in this natural wood Cabin. The Lounge and Main Bedroom both have smart TVs, SKY plus MYSKY for recording programs or catching up on those you have recorded at home SKY MOVIES and SKY SPORT too :)
The Satin-Jet shower gives you the most amazing adjustable shower and gas hot water heating means you can stay in there as long as you like.. that goes for the bath too, perfect after a day up the mountain, or hiking/biking the many tracks
Bed Linen and Towels are provided. Dishwasher, Fridge/Freezer, Oven, Microwave and small appliances, including coffee plunger and teapot
The upstairs loft does have safety railing but if you would prefer the kids on the same level, downstairs L-shaped lounge has a mattress base and is made up with cosy wool rests and fitted sheets and thus can double as two single beds for the little ones, toe to toe! (approx six feet long each way from corner, see pics)
A very private, 600mm high fenced deck with access from the lounge/dining has an amazing unobstructed view over the paddocks to Mt Ruapehu
Shutters on all the windows add to the security of a monitored burglar alarm and professionally installed fire alarms
The fire can be loaded up and turned down so it is going 24/7, you never need to reset or light, there's a drying area behind
A carport provides undercover access to the cabin
Special conditions:
Linen provided for 1 Queen and amp; 2 Double beds, also the two narrow singles, (suitable for one adult or two smaller children toe to toe, L-shaped couch downstairs)
The base rental varies throughout the year, extra occupants charged at $25/adult or child per night except school holidays
Smoking outside only please
Pets may be allowed with prior approval
Linen (included); Free unlimited WIFI (included)
