It's amazing ,very spacious for couples. Every thing was good: the bed, the kitchen, the shower. But we didn't have cellular reception at the cottage and the WiFi was bad. For dinner we had to drive for 15-20 mins. Be aware that it's abit lonely.we loved it. ##### Anat Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Mark Dec 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication Surprisingly great cottage accommodation near Auckland. Could be good for an extended stay, but we had only the one night. The property is in a recessed gully on the land, so suffers from poor mobile connectivity, and the on-site WiFi was no better in the specific cottage we had -- wouldn't do for us for a longer stay. Some of the other units (opposite side of the gully) may have better reception. Hosts were great, and we have only praise for everything else but the lack of decent internet. ##### Mark ### 10/10 Excellent #### Yan Jul 6, 2025 ##### Yan Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Karl Feb 4, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication ##### Karl Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ramsey Jan 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication A quaint lodge in a beautiful and secluded setting in the Waimauku countryside.
