Wow! What a space! The drive up is rather intense and I wonder if maybe there should be a warning when booking like other spaces have? Otherwise it was almost otherworldly when we arrived in the thick fog and woke in the morning to wonderful scenery. Definitely recommend

The place is definitely beyond majestic, plus very kind staff and locals. The pictures seen online doesn't really give complete justice to how amazing this place is. I strongly recommend this place for a holiday getaway for you and your loved ones. See it for yourself and you will know what I mean -- I suggest going during winter season. My partner and I will definitely go back to this amazing paradise! Not to mention this place is a dog-friendly one. How cool is that!

Off the grid but with amazing solar power and heaps of firewood fully prepped for our outside hot tub and our inside fire

Looking for somewhere different? 1260m above sea level in a ski field area in summer. Great scenery and some good walks. Sometimes windy. The road access is what you would expect for a ski field.

This place is amazing! Stunning views, peaceful, comfy bed, everything clean, organized, kitchen fully equipped, the bathtub is awesome to relax and is actually bigger than it looks like. Tim was very helpful and friendly. We will definitely going back and we will recommend this place to all our friends! Take repellent, fly spray, citronella candles and everything you can to keep the flys away lol

Wow, where to begin? We had been in NZ for two weeks and decided to stay here our last night before flying out. I wish we had stayed longer, because this place is unreal, you feel like you are literally on top of the world! Tim was great, showed us around and made us feel welcome the sunset and stars up here at night are unbelievable. On our next trip back we will be staying here again for sure!

The hut was well designed and the little fire place was great at heating the hut, hot tub was a nice treat and the kitchen and bathrooms are very good too.

Beautiful location. Great little main cabin with showers and toilets etc (no fridge, if you bring anything cold in winter just leave it out in the snow!) the pillows were pretty sad and felt like they might give up soon, bed needed more blankets as it was pretty chilly, but bearable. Hot tub fairly hard to get going, ended up having a luke warm bath but cant fault it purely because of the beauty of the location, would come back!
