First night up at the cabin

Cabin at sunset

We’ve been making steady progress so there’s now off-grid lights and water. To celebrate we spent a night up there with the kids and had a fire using an old firebox and chimney we rescued from an old chiminea, worked a treat. Marshmallow testing was completed successfully I’m happy to report.

We are on track to be able to make this available in the Spring.

All the native trees we’ve been planting up there are doing well, there’s only one fatality out of 40 so far, looked like rabbit or hare damage.

Close to finishing a cabin on the hill overlooking the Bay

We’ve been beavering away over the winter months to create a cabin experience on the edge of the Kaimai-Mamaku Forest. It has 360 views of the mountains, bush and ocean out past the harbour.
We’re putting the finishing touches to the kitchen set-up and few other treats like an outdoor fire and wrap around deck, so many nails to hammer.
