We offer a comfortable homestead, sleeps up to 7. In Kakahi, a sleepy village in the adventure playground of Ruapehu. You can reach us on +64278781813 or email maxa888@gmail.com

Our 257sqm, C J Allen Homestead is the oldest house in Kakahi, built in 1905. A few renovations later sees the house as comfortable, well positioned and inviting. The historic village of Kakahi is well known for it's trout fishing, Manu's authentic country general store, the glow worm cutting, and inspiring acclaimed New Zealand artist Peter McIntyre.

Kakahi is an easy drive to many adventures in the region. Kakahi Adventure Lodge provides a place where time stands still. The lodge sits at one end of the village, is private, sunny and peaceful. The night sky is vast and unspoiled by light pollution.

You will enjoy the following facilities; log fire, heat pump, electric blankets, linen and bedding. Fully equip kitchen, including microwave, crock pot, oven, stove, and fridge. Washing machine, library, games, cleaning products.. Fire wood, bbq, outdoor chairs and tables.

Kakahi is a small, sleepy, friendly village that will call you back time and again. Glow worm sight seeing, a wave to all and frequent visits to Manu's shop are must do activities!

Pick up can be arranged from the Taumarunui bus station or the National Park railway station.

The driveway to the lodge should be entered and exited from the village end of Waitea Branch Road. Cars pulling out of the driveway straight across the road are risking a collision with a car coming round the corner. ALWAYS exit to the eastern, or village side of the driveway.

NB. While we are pet friendly, you must contact us before booking if you are thinking of bringing a pet. There are some things we can not say yes too. Please just ask.
