With only a few hours of 2008 remaining we wish you all the very best for 2009 with much health and happiness. It appears there are interesting times ahead for everyone regardless of what country you come from.

We have been at the lodge just under 2 years and have loved having met so many people from diverse backgrounds with all with a common ground: their love of New Zealand and its scenery. It has been a pleasure to host so many, welcome several guests back for a return stay and even to stay with some of you while on holiday in the winter.  We have been very lucky to have had such an opportunity. We have strong bookings for 2009 which is wonderful and many new guests yet to meet.

From our family to yours, thank you so much for staying with us and if you haven’t been to the lodge before we would be more than happy to host you in the future if you are in Wanaka.

Have a fantastic 2009.

Kind regards, Karen, Peter, Adam, Courtney and of course Chase!
