"Great location! No shampoo or conditioner so just be prepared! Nice decks and comfortable bed."

"Angus greeted us on arrival and showed us around the property to make sure we found everything. He was full of advice on the many activities in the area, we would have needed to stay longer to check everything out. He even showed us his fossil collection. I was sad to leave, he took such good care of us, and made us feel like family. Our family group rented all three accommodations for two nights. Angus supplied a crib cot in one of the cabins for our youngest. The glamping tent was perfect for the toddler, low beds, and rugs over the floor. The cabins were well equipped for preparing a light breakfast, which was supplied. Juice, yogurt, cold cereal, and toast with butter, marmalade and jelly. Freshly ground coffee in a press and hot chocolate powder. They even supplied marshmallows to toast over the outside firepit. The bathrooms for the cabins are located outside the cabins, but don't worry, you walk on the deck to get to them, and the way is covered. For the tent you do need to walk in the weather, but it includes a tub on the deck, great for soaking in the view. The kitchenette for the glamping tent is outside the tent with a bar area to watch the sunrise as you sip your coffee. Check out their Instagram for pictures of the views! The units are situated on top of a ridge so you get sunset and sunrise. We even had a view from the bathroom. The private glowworm grotto was a treat. And there were sheep and cattle in the fields. "

"Dave and George the cutie were lovely, we managed to get our laundry done here which was a lifesaver after so many other bnbs don't offer that facility, and even saw 2 pigs, a deer and goat at the adjacent farm!"

"Located directly opposite the Glowworm Caves, this lodge offers an unbeatable strategic advantage. The rooms are spotless, the terrace views are stunning, and the homemade breakfast is exceptional. The staff is genuinely warm and family-friendly. It’s the most efficient and comfortable choice for a seamless Waitomo experience."

"The place looks a bit rundown but overall the stay is comfortable and quiet."

"There are many bugs at night, so it’s convenient to go to Waitoo."
