This whole area completely surprised me in the best way. It’s honestly stunning, like really thoughtfully done with the prettiest landscaping, little walking paths, and the best parks for the kids. It ended up being one of those stops I was so glad we added.

Everything is set in this beautifully restored space just outside Arrowtown, and it has that perfect mix of rustic and elevated without feeling over the top. You can sit inside by the fire or outside by the creek, and both feel just as good.

There are also a bunch of partner restaurants on the property, so you have options depending on what you’re in the mood for, which is really nice when you’re with kids.
