Thank you for being part of our kaitiaki and sustainability journey – we are learning and applying as much knowledge as we can to this forest and sharing the fruits of our labour with the world. Nestled in the heart of the Utakura Valley, Reset Retreat is set on 25-acres of private forest with several kilometers of hiking trails that are yours to explore. The forest is home to many Northland Brown Kiwis which you will (hopefully) hear calling throughout the night. If you are lucky, you might even get the opportunity to see one in the wild if you take a night walk on our forest trails. You will have your own covered balcony and outdoor cooking space (pictured), your own entry and room (pictured), and private ensuite with shower. We have worked hard as Kaitiaki of this land over the last three years, working alongside the Northland Council on pest control and reforestation. As a result (alongside Kiwis) you can also see Titiwai/glow worms, Kererū, Tui, Tomtits, we have spotted longtailed bats outside our house on dusk, Ruru, Riroriro, Cave and Tree Wetas, the rare and gorgeous, large, green Puriri Moths, Piwakawakas, Peacocks, and a host of other native and non-native animals, insects and plants. We are delighted to have you as our guest and share the magic of this valley with you. Reset Retreat is fully off-grid – that means our power comes from the sun, our water comes from the rain, our internet comes from Starlink satellites and our heat comes from our fireplace (with a heat transfer system that disperses the heat throughout the house). Guest access You can access your guest house immediately upon arrival and will find a key inside should you wish to lock up when you leave. Other things to note The house is down a 1.5 km metal/gravel driveway. 2WD vehicles are absolutely fine, but it is up to the driver's comfort level whether they like to drive on gravel roads.
