“Exceptional Experience”
I stayed at River Haven for a few days of fantastic fishing and eating. Scotty has a way of making you feel like you're fishing with an old friend, except that your old friend is going to put you on more big fish than any actual old friend could or would. His guiding skills are without a doubt the best I've ever experienced in 30 some years of fishing.
When you're not on the river, the hospitality is fantastic. The food is excellent, as is the beer selection. The rooms and property were magical!
I can't imagine a more authentic, fulfilling destination for a NZ fishing trip... I will definitely be going back.
