Owen River Lodge is a contemporary 5 star rated fishing lodge which opened in November 2003. We are located in the Owen Valley near Murchison, in the Nelson Lakes district of the South Island of New Zealand. This unique location places us right in the middle of the best brown trout fishery in the world. The lodge is situated 2 kilometres down a country lane from the main highway, a leisurely 90 minute drive from Nelson or approximately 3.5 hours from Christchurch. We love to spoil our guests, allowing them to immerse themselves in the luxurious, warm and inviting ambiance that is Owen River Lodge. Forget about the outside world - come and soak up the stylish, warm and relaxed environment of Owen River Lodge. The views from the Lodge and guest cottage suites are breathtaking, with sensational outlooks to the Owen River, the valley, Mount Owen & Kahurangi National Park. The lodge sits on the bank of the Owen River and with almost a kilometre of river frontage, it is an ideal locale for that quiet after-dinner cast during the evening rise. Guest Accommodation To achieve the highest levels of privacy, the luxuriously appointed guest cottages are located in the gardens, just a short stroll from the main Lodge building. The cottages enjoy stunning views of the river, the valley and the mountains beyond, with the delightful sound of the river in the background. Each guest cottage can be configured with either a king-size double bed or twin king-size single beds. There are 6 cottages, giving us a total capacity of 12 guests. The cottages feature original Australasian fine art works and 100 year old recycled Oregon beams and woodwork. Each guest cottage suite is equipped with reverse cycle air conditioning, an electronic safe, ironing facilities, an alarm clock, mini bar (stocked with complimentary soft drinks & premium fruit juices) and tea & coffee making facilities. All suites have an ensuite bathroom equipped with oversized towels, bathrobes, a hairdryer and, of course, shower gels, body lotion, shampoo and conditioner. Facilities The lodge has two guest lounge areas. One of these is equipped with a TV/video player and DVD player as well as a Notebook PC for you to check e-mails etc. For the technologically obsessed we have a WiFi wireless network with satellite delivered broadband. The main lodge building includes the dining room, lounge room, sitting room, lodge shop, fly tying area and of course, the bar. In the lodge grounds, just past our organic herb and vegetable gardens you will find the massage/therapy room & our outdoor jacuzzi/spa. Dining at Owen River Lodge The food at Owen River Lodge could best be described as stunning. We use the very best of fresh, locally sourced produce, much of which is right out of the lodge's own garden. The tariff includes all meals and non alcoholic beverages. We feature the very best of local, fresh New Zealand produce, prepared with lots of TLC. The end result is great tasting food with simple, clean flavours. The lodge is first and foremost a fly fishing lodge, however the Nelson/Marlborough region has a myriad of things to do for non-fishing guests. Our priority is to offer our guests generous, friendly and unpretentious hospitality. We aim to provide you with the very best holiday/vacation possible. We would like you to think of our lodge as your own private fishing club. The lodge is situated on 16 acres of gardens and farmland. It's a relaxing place to unwind from the stresses of modern life - whether you fish or not! The lodge has won numerous accolades:
