Great few days in this comfortable bach. Well equipped with everything we needed for a self sufficient few days. The fire was great as the weather was wild on one of the days and the host checked in during our stay as we briefly lost power. Coffee and fuel available at Te Rawa and good fishing. Definitely recommend!

Pinohia Paradise

Such a beautiful place for a few days with friends. Caught some fish, swam in the sheltered bay and relaxed on the deck with such amazing views. Paul was great to deal with and went out of his way to make sure our stay was beyond expectations.

Idyllic spot

Had the most amazing stay at Pinohia, it feels like staying at a home rather than a bach - very well equipped, clean and tidy with everything you need for relaxing, or active relaxing. Sitting by the fire gazing over the sounds was a hit. Will definitely be back!
