A very lovely cabin just a few metres from stunning Lake Tekapo. The cabin itself feels very spacious with bedroom, bathroom, and open living area/kitchen. Would highly recommend!

Lovely place to stay – it felt really cosy and comfortable. Great location for exploring the lake and watching the stars!

We enjoyed it so much we stayed an extra night. Great little cabin. We really enjoyed reading on the big window seat and the electric blankets (a wonder after some late night star gazing). Short walk from the lake and town.

Beautiful home that was perfect for our Lake Tekapo getaway. I loved staying here and will definitely stay her again! From the fireplace, to the wall to wall windows, it was cozy and just what we were looking for.

Awesome little spot just a stones throw from the lake and an easy stroll into the village. The accommodation was lovely – fireplace added that little romantic touch. No complaints here 🙂 5 star! (and even more stars in the sky if you get a clear night!)

Lovely place for a get away. Great communication with the team even when the road was closed! Highly recommend! Our pup loved being able to explore the area, and it was lovely to know he was secure in the backyard. Will certainly stay again!
