The view of the vineyard out our back deck was spectacular! Plus, we were only two miles from Cloudy Bay and Allan Scott wineries which were both fantastic. Huge downstairs and kitchen, and both rooms upstairs were very nice and comfortable. Loved it here!

This place was in an absolutely idyllic setting. There were vineyards and baby goats and sheep, just off the back of the property and waking up to open the back curtains and see the view of the mountains and the vineyards was just perfection. Mike at the front desk was super helpful. The amenities were all in good working order. I would go back there for a week or two every single year if I could
