Summary: Absolutely amazing property, loved the history of getting this old church moved from Lake Brunner. The owners were so easy to contact and they had good info of everything in the area. Very clean and very cozy with a wood fire. The bird life was amazing..especially the Wekas, they were so friendly and comical. I highly reccommend this property. Thank you so much for an awesome stay.

Summary: Great location, the property is in need of some maintenance, the spa in etc needs the steps completely replaced. Otherwise great
Tasha J. Feb 27, 2025 05:25:44 AM
Summary: We had an amazing time; it was beautiful, incredibly well equipped, and the place was perfect for a getaway. The house did get quite hot and there are a lot of biting bugs so mozzie repellant and light clothing is a must. We loved the weka wandered through the yard and the glowworms were beautiful

Summary: A amazing location, the church is awesome, the private lakeside beach one of a kind. You need to stay here.

Summary: The fact that this is our 3rd time of staying here (2014, 2022, 2024) we think says it all! Lovely, comfortable and cosy. We are getting a ‘bit long in the tooth ‘ now for the long journey from the UK, but we do hope to return. Unfortunately, we didn’t see the Kkiwis now in residence but we did have a brief glimpse of a Weka. Grant and Fran are excellent hosts.
