Jacksons represents over 135 years of West Coast history of hospitality, gold mining and logging.

In the 1860's, the Jackson brothers Adam and Michael built the first hotel as a stage coach stop for travellers to rest and shelter from the West Coast rain, flash floods on the Taramakau River and the alpine snow.

The stage has long since gone, and so has Jacksons Hotel which was built in 1910 by Harry Jackson (Michael's son). Today it is called the Jackson Historic Tavern, 600 metres from our holiday retreat, where guests love to have a drink, sample the tasty menu, and immerse themselves in history and memorabilia with the help of friendly staff.
