    The property is clean and very comfortable. It is near to the shops and just approximately 15-20mins away from the mountain. You can hear the relaxing sounds of nature while using the spa pool. Scott and Ula is also very attentive to their guests...

​Experience the charm and tranquility of our luxurious accommodation for discerning couples and solo travelers visiting the beautiful Ruapehu area. Nestled in the heart of Ohakune, Two Rivers sits on the banks of the Mangawhero river and the Mangateitei stream. From each guest room you will look across the rivers, open farmland, natural bush and up to the majestic Mount Ruapehu. We offer a warm and inviting atmosphere, where you can relax and unwind. With our exceptional hospitality and comfortable rooms, we strive to make your stay unforgettable. Explore the stunning natural beauty of the surrounding area, indulge in delicious local cuisine, and create lasting memories at Two Rivers. On arrival you will find a large parking area, with three dedicated parking spots to the right of the drive. ​ We like to greet you in person, but on occasion we may deposit a key in a lockbox. The rooms are to the right of the property, away from the family home. Mangawhero and Mangateitei share an entrance, but the bedrooms do not share a party wall. ​On clear days, expect rural views, across to the forests of the Dual World Heritage Tongariro National Park. Rising above both is the majestic Mount Ruapehu. Serene gardens, quiet rooms, ambient sounds and the promise of a spa offer you a chance to relax after your journey.
Ula is from Poland and Scott from the UK. After marrying, we lived in the UK for ten years before moving to New Zealand in 2011. In June 2024 we moved from Wellington where we had careers in IT to live in Ohakune. Ula has long had the dream of running a retreat, somewhere that people can find rest and recuperation. Where nature works its magic and people can just enjoy some peace and quiet. The previous owners of Two Rivers have built and developed something really special, and we are thrilled to take on this property and share our little piece of heaven with discerning guests from around the world. We welcome anyone and everyone to share a few nights next to our Two Rivers.
We are on a quiet residential street with no thoroughfare. There is minimal traffic passing our house, though you will mostly just hear the relaxing flow of the two rivers. Directly across from our driveway is the Jubilee Riverside walk which will take you to the Ohakune i-site and on to the Ohakune Carrot Adventure Park, a 20 minute stroll. Return via town and one of the many cafes selling excellent coffee (and cake - well you're on holiday). The Old Coach Road is only 3.5km away, where you can walk or cycle to Horopito, or just to the viaduct and have a picnic at the massive table. There are several cafes, bars and restaurants only 1km or a 10 minute stroll into town.
