10/10 Excellent

From arrival to departure -- first rate service. All rooms overlook Mount Cook and Lake Pukaki. Modern, comfortable accommodation. New facility -- only 6 months old. Executive chef prepares meals -- all outstanding. Pleasant, helpful staff and owners. Owner took us out for stargazing at night-- the district forbids lighting outdoors unless necessary -- allows breathtaking views of the sky. Would recommend this lodge without hesitation.
