Fantastic Experience! Firstly, a huge thank you to Ian for all your help! You are a great guy, and it was a pleasure to meet you. Your assistance with the Tongariro Track made a world of difference, and we had the opportunity to meet some wonderful people along the way. The lodge itself was a lot of fun, with plenty of games and a well-equipped kitchen that made our stay even more enjoyable. The rooms were comfortable and welcoming. We had an unforgettable experience and can't recommend this place enough!

What a wonderful place, pictures do not do it justice! Fully deserving of its 5* status. Warm and welcoming, with an excellent breakfast and great recommendations for dinner if you choose to eat out. The owners/hosts Jason & Rebeca could not have done more to make us feel at home; they went above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic stay. We took the Tongariro Crossing package where everything is organised to make sure we didn’t have to worry about a thing, we definitely recommend this! The lodge itself is serene and peaceful, highly recommend the Major’s Room which comes with a hot tub, just what we needed after a long day hiking. Having been lucky enough to stay in a few luxury lodges in NZ, this certainly ranks amongst the very best. Thank you to Jason & Rebeca for welcoming us!
