Neat, clean, spacious and comfortable place to stay. We've had an excellent time - with Alan and Susie as great hosts - during new year period 2017/2018. Superb breakfast, stylish house and nice base from which you can do the must do Great Walk, the Tangoriro Alpine Crossing. Absolutely recommended!
At the base of the snow capped Mt. Ruapehu in the adjacent Tongariro National Park lies the charming Manuka Lodge. The crisp cool mountain air refreshed our spirits and invigorated us each day as we set out for the looming volcanos and dazzling waterfalls, signature sights of this stretch of New Zealand. Our hosts Alan and Susie provided exceptional lodging for our 3 day stay in the lovely mountain town of Ohakune. They are clearly invested in making sure that their guests have a PEAK experience in every regard! They are a great team and a delightful couple and excellent company. They provided a home base from which we could explore the entire region --- just heavenly!
The accommodation is excellent. Our room was very good, spacious, beautiful and well equipped. An excellent breakfast is served, making a good start of your explorations of the day. All this is topped off by the friendliness and warmth of the hosts. Next to their knowledge about the area and tips on activities to get the most out of your stay. They display a sincere interest in your venture of the day, often leading to long talks. You get a feeling of home away from home, or meeting old friends while in fact you just met, which is well appreciated.
We stayed for 2 nights and really enjoyed it :) the breakfasts are yummy, the room was lovely, clean and large and the hosts are really friendly. We couldn't fault it, we just wish the weather was not so cloudy so we could see the mountain ;)
Beautiful and comfortable lodge. Ultra-friendly (but not overzealous) hosts with enormous amounts of local knowledge and happy to share recommendations and ideas. Hosts stayed in contact during a snowstorm when we couldn't make it to the town for one of the nights of our stay. Their updates and assistance made us keen to make the journey for the last night of our stay. We are so glad we made the trip. Ohakune is a beautiful welcoming holiday town and we are looking forward to making the trip again in the summer. The cooked breakfast was a highlight of our trip! Thank you Alan and Susie

Hi there,
Thank you for your enquiry. We're located on the edge of the town of Ohakune. It's just under ten minutes walk to the bars and restaurants in the centre of town.
Having no car is no problem at all. The nearest ski field is Turoa, about 25 minutes drive - the town is the closest place to the ski area you can stay. There are shuttles that run from Ohakune every 30 minutes. They'll pick up from the lodge and they charge $28 per person return.
We'll happily pick you up and drop you off at either the train station or bus stop as required.
Our full table of rates, together with secure booking facility, is available on our website.
Kind regards,
Alan Hancorn
