## About the hotel
Huka Lodge began in 1924 as a fisherman's camp of white canvas tents along the Waikato River, growing over a century into one of New Zealand's most celebrated luxury lodges. Its twenty guest suites and two owners' cottages sit within seventeen acres of gardens along the river, near Lake Taupo on the North Island. The lodge's setting and its history as an angler's retreat still shape its quiet, understated style of hospitality.
