Our stay at Cabot Lodge was one of the highlights of our trip to NZ. It is a magical, idyllic location and our hosts Brad and Breidi and their team welcomed us with kindness and thoughtfulness in their attention to detail. We would definitely go back and stay longer next time we are in NZ! We HIGHLY recommend this most amazing experience at Cabot Lodge!

Keys were placed in the lock box and has been informed way before so that we had seamless check-in. We had good time with the board games. Views from the top deck lounge were stunning as we can see some snow on the mountains. House is maintained very well with top priority to cleanliness. This property is situated in a very calm area. Very easy to access Pearl Harbour and a 15 min walk to Fraser beach. Overall we felt like it's a home away from our home in Christchurch

    We had a cabin that overlooked the lake which was beautiful. There are some pretty funky cabins on the property and the car collection is fun.

    We loved the location, the history behind its build and how the place remained in the family. Our hosts Robert and Phillipa were outstanding, they couldn’t have done more for us.

    It's one of a kind... and I liked it. The setting is unique and a mix of camping, dorms and motels in a Westcoast funky setting right by the lake. Reception staff was great! Was in a dorm which was basic but with pretty comfy mattress. Kitchen was okay. Bathrooms in various locations, can't really say much about them as I only stayed for one night. I enjoyed the cozy lounge where I connected with several travellers. Can't beat the price!! And the unique ambience.

    The fun started when we were told that our two rooms that we reserved was only one for four people and only had a queen size bed. The young Canadian man behind the counter was frustrated that this had occurred AGAIN. He confirmed our booking with Booking. Com, but their system had not picked this up. He managed to place us in a room with two beds. The only good thing that night. From there, things only went down hill.

    Easy to find. Nice and kind services. Close to the river but the walking path next to the river is not fun.
