Cozy, welcoming, and sooooo warm with beautiful views and everything we needed for our stay. There’s so much to do here - the hiking is epic, the ski field is outstanding, and what a base to do it from! Highly recommend to anyone looking to really switch off and unwind.

We had an amazing stay! Lake Ōhau is an absolute must-visit the scenery is breathtaking. The house itself was incredibly comfortable and perfectly equipped for a large group, striking a great balance between feeling luxurious and homey. We couldn’t have asked for a better spot to relax and enjoy the area. Highly recommend!

Beautiful home and surrounding. It's a great place to spend the weekend. The place has everything you need already with s fully equipped kitchen, towels and bed linen. Having a lounge and a den was perfect for a big group as people can choose where to gather and hangout with out feeling overcrowded. Highly recommend the brown house
