There are no heaters in the bedroom. We left the doors open, the fire was lovely.

Beautiful place that had everything we needed. The fire was going when we arrived, everything felt very homely

Flawless

Marlene went above and beyond. She is a great host, her home is amazing and the location is perfect! The street with the best view of the mountain, very close to restaurants, great breakfast, lots of great books around the house, amazing house and the fire was perfect to warm up the place. I had just done the tongariro alpine crossing and Marlene gave me epsom salts to put in the bath to soothe my muscles, and she always made sure the fire was on to keep the house warm. Scooty is the cutest thing! Thank you so much, Marlene, for having me at your home.

Was absolutely fantastic, we couldn't fault the property everything you need was provided. We were blown away, was certainly a home away from home. Private, close to all ammineties. Would have loved to stay longer.

Great spot and not far from the middle of town with everything you need..

There was a lovely verandah to sit outside, but only one chair. Note that payment is only by cash or bank transfer - it stipulates that in the listing, but it was something that we easily overlooked until we arrived. International bank transfer seemed difficult to make happen, so getting the cash was a bit inconvenient, but no great hassle. Would have been better if we'd been prepared.

A fabulous place to stay in Ohakune. Only a short walk from the centre of town and set in a wonderful garden. The apartment is very spacious with everything you could need, apart from a washing machine. However, Marlene kindly let us use her machine to deal with some much needed laundry. The breakfast supplies were plentiful and varied. We only stayed for 2 nights, but could happily have stayed for a week.

Home was excellent, only problem we had was its a 20 minute walk from station and we had a large and small bag each. This is no reflection on the property just a warning for anyone using the train. Marlene arranged for a family member to drive us back to the station which was very much appreciated House is made of wood so does creak a bit.

Lovely home, plenty of space, lots of food for breakfast, very helpful host, gardens are beautiful. Offered me some Epsom salts for a bath after riding the old coach road.
