A blockwork shoebox with a ply interior, but has a great verandah with a picnic table. Notable that the toilet door is clear glass.

Beautiful weather and good company Temuka Tramping club members. We also enjoyed staying the night at the Growler Hut, awesome location. Left on time in the morning as the weather was coming in.
