I stayed here for 3 nights. Steve and Shaz are amazing hosts, and the property was gorgeous and beautiful. My friend and I used the place as a base to go ski Mt. Hutt for a few days and to explore the surrounding areas. The ski slopes in NZ are a bit different then they are in the US, where I'm from, and they don't really having lodging either on the mountain and not much of a mountain village to speak of, so your options are to really commute in from town. This place was a fantastic location. Its very close and they are amazing hosts! You really feel like you're in your own home. I met another guest who had been coming here for 3 years. Highly recommend without reservation!
