We have experienced some of the finest accommodations in New Zealand, and Riverrun is the one we would come back to first. Wanaka is, of course, hard to beat, but Riverun is also a beautiful place unto itself, and Meg Taylor is a wonderful hostess. The feeling you have at Riverrun is that you have just been invited into someone's... More

I'm in the travel industry, and I rarely write reviews as a result, but I feel compelled to comment on what a wonderful stay we had at Riverrun Lodge in Wanaka.
