    The cabin was new and tastefully decorated. It was stocked with everything one could wish for. The preordered dinner of steak sandwich / fries was scrumptious and made with love. I want more !

***IMPORTANT !! ***PLEASE ADVISE IF YOU ARE WALKING IN OR BOATING. *THERE IS NO ROAD ACCESS TO TAWA COVE CABINS OR ENDEAVOUR INLET. *MEAL PACKS MUST BE PRE-ORDERED. *CHECK AVAILABILITY OF MOORING PRIOR TO BOOKING PLEASE. *YOU MUST COMMUNICATE THROUGH YOUR PRIVATE EMAIL ADDRESS PLEASE. *BOOKING COM IS LIMITED IN DETAILS--PLEASE SEE OUR WEBSITE FOR IMPORTANT / MORE INFORMATION & FULL AVAILABILITY.*** Situated in Endeavour Inlet, Queen Charlotte Sound, Tawa Cove is your slice of paradise away from it all. Accessible only by boat or walking/biking via the Queen Charlotte Track. We are approx. 4 hours from the start of the track, Ship Cove, making us the ideal first night stay. We are 10 minutes down off the Queen Charlotte Track. Boat transfers/water taxis are available from Picton to our jetty. Travel time by private boat is approx 40 mins from Picton. With no close neighbours, we offer the perfect place for relaxing & soaking up the serenity, having a drink by the waterside, or you may like to be more active & enjoy hiking, swimming, fishing, kayaking, or paddle boarding. All of which are available for your use. Whether it be an overnight stay while walking the track, a weekend getaway arriving by boat, or a group fishing trip for a week, we aim to make your time here happy & memorable.
Our cabins are located in close proximity to our waterfront home so whilst you have your privacy of a self-contained cabin, we are always available as your hosts for anything you may require. Equally, if you would rather "do your own thing" we won't bother you either ;) We really love entertaining & looking after guests, & our hope for when you come to stay, is that you feel relaxed, comfortable & at home.
