    Lakeside location

    Past guests say …

    Beautiful private wee place, outdoor bath is amazing, love how it’s pet friendly and fenced off, had a great stay.

    Corina – Jan 2022

    Outstanding accommodation in such a top spot in the beautiful Tekapo! Whilst there is no view from the property you are literally a 20 second stroll to the lake frontage so the location is second to none. The cottage itself was funky, well equipped, warm and just charming and the communication and help from Discover Tekapo was great. Dog friendly with a fully fenced garden and the perfect location for walkies at any time of the day!

    Jenn – Nov 2021

    Great spacious house with a lovely garden space. 100 metres from the lake. Really quiet. Wood burner was nice to have and the outdoor bath. Really good and only 10 / 15 minutes walk to town. Highly recommended!

    Stephen – Jan 2023

    This is a beautiful home in a fantastic location. Felt like a home away from home. Great for our family of 5 (with 3 tall adult children). Would highly recommend.

    Jeannine – Jan 2023

    Great place- we loved our stay. Neat, fresh and modern house in a great location. Beautiful bath under the stars.

    Rose – Mar 2022

    Perfect place to stay in Tekapo, Lake is just down the driveway! This will be the spot my family stays for future trips
