Lovely place to stay in Lake Tekapo. Beautiful view of the lake and mountains behind. Comfortable bed & living area. Large kitchen and nice shower. Easy walk into town (about 10-15 mins).

Alpine Rest is a lovely house with gorgeous views of Lake Tekapo! It’s in a quiet neighborhood but close to the shops. The house has everything you need and is very comfortable.

Just a 3 min drive into the town centre, lake and Church of Good Shepherd. Walk to the end of the road and there’s a nice quiet hiking trail (Cowan’s Hill) which is away from all the main tourist spots in Lake Tekapo.
