It all went well. Rachael was gracious, courteous and efficient. The cleaning lady was friendly and gracious and obviously very good at her job. Overall presentation and situation were brilliant.

We loved everything about our stay at Lochmara Lodge. We stayed for two nights with our family and It was a little bit of a splurge, but did not disappoint! The location was stunning, the fact that you got there by water taxi made it remote and uncrowded, and there were plenty of things to do (hike, paddleboard, kayak). Also, the food was delicious and the staff was accommodating and helpful.

Te Mahia is a slice of paradise in the Queen Charlotte-Kennepure Sound. The location is a balm for your soul in the busy life we lead today. It is exquisitely beautiful but the locations beauty is surpassed by Trevor and Janet who were exemplified Kiwi kindness.
As Canadian golfers pursuing the links, Trevor arranged for us to join a golf tournament at the Nopera golf course. This required a short boat water ride across the gorgeous sound by equally kind and generous Kiwis Ang and Christopher- who were playing in the tournament. While we scooted across the sound our guides pointed out features around the shore which were not in any guide books.
Trevor arranged a delicious dinner for us upon our return which put the fresh in freshly caught. Our chefs were an engaging young couple who prepared a delicious meal.
This place is not to be missed in any trip to New Zealand.

We spent a lovely 2 nights over New Years in the Moa cabin (with 2 bedrooms, shower and bathroom). The owners’ family were all staying so there were lots of kids running around which delighted our little almost-3-year-old. Everyone was super welcoming particularly on New Year’s Eve when we were toasting marshmallows on the campfire.
We had a few nice (cold!) swims off the jetty but there’s also a small beach nearby plus Schoolhouse Bay beach about 30 mins walk away.
The cabin was really comfortable and well-appointed. We did a big shop in picton to get us through the 2 nights - mostly stuff to cook up on the barbecue (which worked well). Apparently if you’re there for a longer stay you can get the picton supermarkets to deliver groceries so that’d be worth asking about if you were there for longer than we were.
We’d happily come back to the cabins - maybe next time we can visit as part of the Queen Charlotte walkway (when our little one is a bit grown up)!
