Authentic Canadian log house with the view of Mount Ruapehu

Two fantastic living areas – an open plan lounge complete with dining table and eight chairs, woodburner, 42" television with freeview, movies, and pool table opening onto large verandah with mountain views leading to outdoor five seater spa. The kitchen is well equipped with large walk in pantry, fridge/freezer, microwave , nespresso coffee machine, wall oven and sink with plenty of bench and cupboard space. Complimentary continental breakfast with homemade crumpets and raspberry jam. A separate breakfast room with table, bench seats, and under stair fireplace with sunny morning aspect is under the mezzanine ‘kids lounge’, perfect for their own space complete with bins of k'nex, duplo, lego, books and puzzles for those rainy days. With the mezzanine sleeping loft of 1 Queen, 1 Double bed, 2 single beds, 1 king single and lounge area, additional small balcony mezzanine with one single, and two separate bedrooms with one queen, one with ensuite, both with wall mounted 'smart' tvs for streaming netflix etc, there is plenty of room for your group. Dog sitting and walking services are available by arrangement. This is an amazing gated hillside property, beautifully landscaped with ornamental ponds and plenty of space and privacy; across the road from a lovely river walk. Plenty of room for dogs to roam. Dogs are restricted to hard floor areas downstairs. Charges for dogs are $20/dog per stay, $30 for two dogs. Check out at 10 am, and check in at 2pm. Log Lodge is only 10 minutes to Ohakune township, then 20 minutes up a forest road to Turoa ski field or 30 minutes around to Whakapapa ski field. A shuttle service, Ruapehu Connections, operates from Raetihi to Ohakune.
