Following is feedback posted by visitors to this property:Excellent
Our host, expert jet boat navigator, and historian exceeded expectations. Johan's knowledge of the history and geography of the area was a huge addition to the trip; and the excellent lunch!

Awesome
A highlight of our Southland cycle tour. Johan and Joyce were the best hosts ever very professional yet so relaxed. No trouble for them to arrange a pick up and drop off from Tautapere for us cyclists. The lake and river are most beautiful. The jet boat ride was very exciting and the gourmet lunch was to die for. Don't hesitate to take this adventure.
