Meet Your Host

As a hosted lodge, we pride ourselves on creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere for our guests. Your stay with us is more than just accommodation - it’s an invitation to experience the wonders of Lake Brunner and its surroundings through the eyes of those who know it best. We’re here to share not just our lodge, but also the unique stories, hidden gems, and untamed beauty of this remarkable region.

Kia ora! I’m Brenda Lynch, your host at Lake Brunner Eco Lodge. It’s my privilege and passion to welcome guests to this little slice of paradise on New Zealand’s stunning West Coast.

With a newly found passion for hospitality and a deep love for nature, I’ve dedicated myself to creating a lodge where guests can unwind, recharge, and connect with the environment.

When you stay at Lake Brunner Eco Lodge, you’re not just a guest - you’re part of our extended family. I look forward to welcoming you, sharing stories over a glass of wine, and helping create memories that last a lifetime.
