Morgans Hut | Nelson Lakes National Park

One of the recent breeds of DOC huts, Morgans Hut, replaces the original National Park structure that was in serious danger of removal by flood.

Big double-glazed windows, insulation, rodent proof, large verandah, etc, and due to the distance from the river, a large water tank. Most people will appreciate the additional comfort.
