Just steps away from the Tongariro river, rolling pastures, and serene nature paths, our stay at River Birches couldn't have been better. The lodge itself is beautifully designed with nature in mind, while also offering comfortable, elegant, and stylish amenities that were thoughtfully put...

My husband and I stayed at River Birches for the last three nights of our New Zealand trekking vacation. Jason and Rebecca were fantastic! Jason provided first-rate advice on hiking the Tongariro Crossing, including weather, gear, and transportation. After conquering that day of other-worldy...

We stayed at the cottage, very beautiful and cosy. Place is nice and clean, kitchen is very well equipped. We had dinner on site and everything was perfect. Kids loved the place, everyone there was amazing. New World is less than 5min driving.
