Te Karaka Station & Lodge

5.0(70 reviews)

About

In North Island, Te Karaka Station & Lodge occupies 1833 Port Waikato Waikaretu Road in Waikaretu 2695, a rural setting south-west of Auckland. The lodge is known for its countryside position, and the website at http://www.tekarakalodge.co.nz/ carries its own information.

First-time visitors can expect a quiet rural stay rather than a city base, with the Waikaretu area well away from the main centres. Auckland, Hamilton and Tauranga are the closest of the island's cities, with Wellington, Rotorua, Taupo, Napier and New Plymouth further afield. A 5 out of 5 average from 70 reviews places it at the top of its range.

The lodge opens Wednesday to Sunday from 10:00 to 20:00, so arrivals outside those days need planning.

New Zealand has a temperate maritime climate, so summers are mild and winters rarely bring snow at low altitude, which suits a rural stay year-round. Seasons run opposite to the northern hemisphere, with summer from December to February and winter from June to August.
