It’s in a beautiful location. Sea views and abundant native bird life. We also hired a hot tub for the time we were there, brilliant idea. Had a fish at the Mokihinui river mouth, caught a Kawai.

Note Charming Creek Walkway is closed at its most impressive end due to a large rockslide..see DOC website. (As per previous reviews the bathroom door needs fixing .

Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Lola J. 6 Jan 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### Good escape from the city We had a good time in the house but a couple of things could be better : - we payed for linen but nothing was there when we arrive. Then the management brought a box full of linen and we had to make the beds ourselves. - on the home away app, it was specified that the house was provided with internet which was not the case at all... it was quite annoying for us as we planned to have internet... we were then told that internet was available at the reception (5mn drive from the house)... but when we tried there, the network was not working... - we found the house to be quite charming but we really think that a few amenities outside on the terrace or outdoor in the small garden could be great... like a few chairs or table... the only one that is outside is very old and just supporting the barbecue. - we think that the sofa could be washed as it’s not really appealing right now, especially for the one who is sleeping in. But overall the location is nice and the proximity with the beach is enjoyable. ##### Lola J.

The views were spectacular of the sea. Lots of firewood to keep us warm. Would have liked some condements, e.g. tea, coffee, sugar, baking or cooking needs e.g. flour, salt/pepper, oil. You can't pop out to a shop if you forget to pack an item. Overall a wonderful place to stay. ##### David D.

The location was ideal - within a minute's walk to the beach. The gas heating and cooking made a real difference, the place was warm throughout our stay. We managed to catch a Kahawhai at the river mouth within 15mins of arriving - that was the perfect start to our break. We will definitely stay again. ##### Chris P. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2018 ---
