Authentic Canadian log house with the view of Mount Ruapehu

Absolutely loved our stay! Such a cozy, peaceful spot to unwind, and so close to the mountain for an easy trip to the snow. The homemade crumpets and raspberry jam were honestly to die for – the perfect touch to a perfect getaway. Can’t wait to come back!”

What a beautiful property! even better than the pictures. Lots of outside space for dogs, impeccably clean and host was very friendly. Little added extras were a lovely touch. We would definitely come back here again! We were extremely happy with everything.

Had a wonderful stay, was fantastic that our dogs were welcome too. We certainly will be back.

Loved this space. Booked it for a work team planning trip. Heaps of room for small group discussions, loved the two fires and the hot tub! Great location.

A great weekend relaxing by the fire, playing pool and warming up in the spa. Very friendly host too.

My husband and I were here for a week with our border collie X doggo, and we all had a fabulous time! There was space for our dog to run around outside, but also a really lovely river walk across the road where he could be off-lead. We also did a similar, slightly longer, river walk in Ohakune which was dog-friendly. The log cabin itself is lovely - all the beds are upstairs; there are two private rooms, and then also a more open-plan area that had 2x queen and 2x king singles. Super-comfy beds! The weather turned rubbish for a couple of days so we just hunkered down in front of the fire and watched movies. Hubby enjoyed having the pool table, and the piano was an unexpected bonus! Highly recommend this place and we very much hope to be back. Thanks Steve and Deb!

The log cabin was even more beautiful than the photos. With a roaring fire to welcome us on arrival and the hot spa on the deck ready with mountain views was just bliss. Homemade crumpets and jam were just one of the special touches that made our stay so memorable. We played pool in the warmth of the heart of the house and scrabble as the sun went down. Only minutes away ftom Ohakune this gorgeous place exceeded our exoectations. It is beautifully appointed with a real charm, and super clean and tidy. A hidden gem it was a birthday treat stay that wont be forgotten. We will definitely be back

We visited the loghouse now for the second time. Last time was in winter 2023 with absolutely amazing snow. This time we took our bikes and discovered a wide variaty of trails we found on Alltrails. Deborah and Steve as usually made our stay absolutely perfect and our daughter absolutely loves the house. We will come back in winter again. Thanks heaps for such an amazing listing.

Staying here was lovely, there was so much space for the whole family and we couldn't get enough of the beautiful view. The bathrooms arent photographed in the listing so we weren't sure what to expect. There is a full modern bathroom downstairs with a shower. Theres another bathroom downstairs split with the shower and toilet in seperate rooms. The bathroom upstairs is connected to the main bedroom. All lovely, modern and clean. I brought my dog along and was pleased to find it very dog friendly. Didn't even have to worry about him trying to go upstairs because the wooden spiral staircase was too scary for him. Overall a great place and would be happy to stay here again.

Absolutely beautiful - Loved the spa and view of the mountain.
