We invite you to come and have a unique experience in our remote high country property one hour east of Taihape with breath-taking scenery. Nestled amongst the headwaters of the Rangitikei River and surrounded by the rugged landscape of the central North Island hill country, the lodge sits in the heart of the property where you will watch the different deer species majestically wandering the hills, right from your bedroom window! Comfortable, cosy, and homely; this is not just an accommodation venue.. this is all about a full backcountry experience that the Quinn family love to provide!

The sheer remoteness and untouched beauty of this area from when you first drive-through of one of NZ's largest sheep stations to arrive at the diverse tapestry of nature on the Quinn's property. Kick back, relax, and soak up everything 'wilderness' with all the comforts of home or take up many of the outdoor activities available.
Let us take you on an awesome rainbow trout fishing expedition on our privately owned 3 mile frontage of the Rangitikei River that is accessible only to our guests. Fish for some of the best Rainbow trout in the world.. the crystal clear waters provide a fantastic photo opportunity and we've even had couples get married with the stunning Rangitikei river as a backdrop. Professional Fishing Guide Johnny Gummer will show you all the right techniques to this seldom fished river.
Picnic lunch included
Get tuition from one of NZ's best skeet shooters
Includes shells
