The sections are situated at Lake Rotoiti, and, with the exception of Sections 1 to 8 and 18, which have frontage to main highway, all have a commanding view of the lake. All sections are good building-sites. As Section 18 is situated at the junction of the main highway and Black Valley Road, it is regarded as being suitable for a business-site. This lake is a well-known holiday resort, and is rapidly becoming popular for holiday-makers, campers, and sportsmen. The main highway from Blenheim to West Coast passes the township, and access is therefore by good metalled motor-road. Top-house Post-office is five miles distant. The back portions of Sections 40 to 47 and 49 to 58 are in bush, and consequently are eminently suitable for residential purposes.
