Great property for weekend stay

We’ve stayed at this property several times, and although it’s a little dated, it is immaculately clean and well equipped. A lovely deck to enjoy great views. Plenty of room for a group. Would definitely recommend.

Great spacious house, host communication was excellent, Tracey called back when I had questions. She warned me about the different levels inside the house and steps down to the sleepout. Bring all kitchen supplies, but plenty of utensils, plates etc. Would happily stay here again. Thank you

Beautiful among the birds

Beautiful location, great house, bit of a glitch with neighbours parking in the drive which created some problems when we arrived but agents/owners did a reasonable job trying to resolve.

Hi, Thanks for your stay and review. As you know i was beside myself that they did this. They had gone out on their boat - to make it worse. I can say this was the first time and can report it wont happen again. I am very sorry this happened.

Great Spot

We had a very fun but busy weekend in Akaroa with a family wedding. The location was perfect to Mt Vernon Lodge, and a great size for all of us. The only thing I will say is the all steps and stairs inside weren't ideal for moving babies or the older generation. Overall though was great and we'd definitely use again. Thanks 😊
