"We loved our two-night stay here! The rooms were quiet, spacious and clean and the common areas were lovely. The hot tub was a highlight on a chilly night! Our host, Jennifer, was very responsive and made sure we had all we needed. Perfect location to explore the region around Arrowtown. Would definitely stay here again!"
