Riverside Homestead

Property was exceptional with balcony overlooking beautiful plantings leading down to a river. Located in a very quiet area but easily accessible to Bay of Islands. Very clean and great attention to every detail. Highly recommended!!!

Nothing to dislike. Hosts were phenomenal with great homemade-cooked breakfast, top notch wines, securing tickets to local events, ferries and restaurants. Extremely accommodating and knowledgeable about the area.

The property is absolutely gorgeous, it’s like stepping inside a private collection of memorabilia from all over the world and times. To not mention the tranquil view at the back of the house facing the river. Micheal and Chris had a spotless taste in decorating their beautiful house. They have a long list of recommended restaurants nearby, super helpful in organizing your day and make the holiday the best one. Our favorite thou, we must say, was the ginger cat, the sweetest ever.

Honestly nothing we didn’t like, highly recommended.

Really cool house and garden. Michael and Chris were very helpful and friendly. Very good Breakfast served on private balcony, perfect 😊

Wonderful hospitality in a beautiful home with stunning garden and views.

Leaving!

Friendly, informative hosts; lovely views from balcony where breakfast with delicious homemade breads was served.

Lovely homely feel. Michael and Chris have attention to detail. Home decorated very well, rooms have beautiful river view. Breakfast was outstanding. Good location.

We stayed for two nights at the Riverside Homestead while visiting Bay of Islands and a day trip out to Cape Reinga. What a wonderful stay - the house is one of the most peaceful places we have stayed at. Michael and Chris have exceptional attention to details, from calming music when entering the room to an excellent breakfast on the balcony while enjoying the fantastic views down to the river. Everything at breakfast was home made as well! Great location to some nice restaurants, breweries and to the treaty ground. We will definitely recommend friends and family to stay here!
