Located right in front of the edge of Lake Tekapo, convenient for a stroll down the lake. Well maintained properties consist of several locations within a walking distance from the main reception office.

Everything was amazing considering the price paid. Only suggestion I could make is to potentially add some form of heating to the bathrooms for outside cabins. A -9⁰ morning nearly had my cheeks frozen to the toilet seat 🚽 ❄️
