This is a 130 year old, two storey, historic homestead which is located right at the beginning (literally) of the Cape Brett walking track.  Start by clicking on the picture of the Lodge on the left of the screen, and then watch a video. All you need to do is walk out the front door and onto the track. The Lodge is also by far the best location available in Rawhiti if you want close proximity to Oke Bay which is Kiri Te Kanawa’s favourite beach. Her holiday house not far away. Click here to check out Kiri’s holiday house. Oke Bay Lodge has a new kitchen and three new tiled bathrooms. In total there are 2 new showers, a slipper bath, mains pressure hot and cold water, 3 flush toilets, stove, microwave, two fridges, a freezer and two open fires.  The new kitchen has all the essentials (in terms of pots and pans, bowls, glasses/cups and cutlery), phone (from which you can make unlimited toll calls to national landlines, but not calls to cell phones or international calls please), wireless broadband, boat ramp down the road, a proper mooring outside the lodge for a boat, sky TV via the internet, auto washing machine etc. It’s clean and dry.  You’ll love the sun, the views, and the feeling of privacy and isolation. It’s best described as a character large-classic-kiwi bach, ideal for kids and large families or reunions and weddings. CAN SLEEP UP TO 23 PEOPLE!  In total, there are beds for 12 people at present. Upstairs there is a double bed in two rooms, a queen in another, and a set of bunks in another. Downstairs there is a set of bunks in one room, and a couch that unfolds and turns into a comfortable double bed in the lounge.   Enjoy the open fires during winter. These use bio fuel so there is no mess or fuss with wood. On the those mid-winter days, the Lodge will be toasty and cosy! There are mattresses for a further 16 people (150mm thick and covered so they are not ‘budget’) for extras. If there are even more people coming to stay, there is a double airbed and a single airbed. We’ve tried to cater for 23 people (it’s very tight though!)  since the DOC hut at Cape Brett only sleeps 23 as well.  There are pop...
