Bart Davies - CanadaIt was my first trip to New Zealand and I could not have picked a better place to stay than Charlie and Nadine's.
The fishing was great and their hospitality was even better! Their fly fishing lodge is located in one of the most scenic places you'll find on the planet!
Thank you for making my first trip to New Zealand as memorable as it could possibly have been! We'll be back and look forward to seeing you again!
Lyndon & Judy Forrest - AustraliaHi Charlie and Nadine.
Thank you so much for so warmly welcoming us into your most perfect back country New Zealand fishing lodge, for our recent New Zealand fly fishing vacation just gone!
We found it to be modern and comfortable and with a well equipped kitchen and outdoor BBQ we were able to relax outdoors and cook our own meals at the end of a great day's fly fishing - something my husband Lyndon enjoys immensely - cooking that is - as well as the fishing of course! Overlooking a fantastic trout fishing pool, I enjoyed sitting outside having a quiet glass of wine and watching the trout rise in the evenings, while Lyndon made himself at home on the BBQ.
Nick Dunn - UKWhat can I say about Charlie and Nadine? They looked after me like their long lost brother and totally made my NZ fishing experience. I had never been to their lodge before and was new to New Zealand, it's Trout, people and culture. They made sure that I was fed watered and had fish to cast at. Caught loads of quality Trout with Charlie and his Guides, shared a beer or two with them while telling fisherman's tales into the evening and had a wonderful time.
I can wholeheartedly recommend you visit them and sample some of their warm hospitality and superb accommodation right on the river front. Just leave me some Trout to catch when I go there again!
We’ve always classed our fly fishing season as running from November through to April. But…
