Central lodge is a short walk from cottages, which are spaced around campus. My cottage was good, but could have used a bit updating (compared to Powederhorn, in Ohakune). If you are hiking the Tongariro, it is very convenient to trailhead. Lodge dining facility was very good.

The staff were really welcoming and accommodating. The restaurant food was excellent. We stayed in a chalet where the Ironing board was small (sleeve size) so a little tricky to use, but otherwise a comfortable pleasant place to stay

Perfect place for any stay.
Great location for large group to stay in comfort. We had 2 3 bedroom houses so plenty of room. Also large outdoor area for games etc.
Close enough to town amenities for shopping etc but hidden away from rat race.
Restuarant is very good.

We stayed overnight but we would love to come back some time and try the trout fishing. The lodge is on the river and as I walked past I could see large trout swimming. The gardens are stunning. Our chalet was very quiet, comfortable and spacious. We enjoyed an excellent dinner and breakfast here. The service was excellent. I would highly recommend staying here.

Enjoyable short stay in a chalet. Clean and comfortable, quiet surroundings. Handy to town. We were disappointed that the restaurant wasn’t open during our stay. Evening reception would be improved by having the fire crackling on arrival - the reception/bar area seemed very old and tired but that was probably mostly because it was poorly lit and no fire on. Overall very happy with our stay.

The bed was uncomfortable
The next door chalet was occupied by a very noisy couple
I rang reception to complain and they were quieter during the night but started again at 6.00am
Loud conversations and thumping around

Big mistake
Disappointed with this place. We booked here as it said restaurant and bar and we thought we could just stay have dinner and drinks without having to drive but no hot there to be told not available.
Bed was like a trampoline in cabin 2. Terrible sleep and no soundproof at all as the people next to us coughed all night.

our chalet was comfortable and quite spacious. BUT the basin in the bathroom was cracked and the door difficult to open and close.
We could not be moved to another room as fully booked but we were given a small discount.

Beautiful grounds
We enjoyed the lodge, however, I would have liked a bed frame, not just the mattress on the floor, it was too low for me. They really need to invest in beds for their mattresses.
But the room was clean and the bathroom was good size and the staff was very friendly and helpful.

Beautiful property, quiet and secluded but close to town. The staff was superb and very professional. Our unit was dated, but clean and comfortable and well equipped. The restaurant was excellent! We would highly recommend the Lodge.

The best thing about our stay here was the dinner, which was outstanding. The rooms are very basic for the price paid. The property, especially the Lodge itself, is unique and rustic - as you might expect for a fishing lodge. If you’re traveling between Auckland and Wellington, it’s conveniently located just off Highway 1. Not much else to choose from around this area.
