We stayed in the studio for 3 adults with spa bath. It was very comfortable and had everything we required. We only had an overnight stay and unfortunately it was raining in the evening when we arrived so we quickly explored the area in the morning before heading up to Mt Cook. Would definitely stay there again.

The unit we stayed in was ok. When booking the description lake view with hot tub…I didn’t expect the lake to be so far away and the hot tub being a jacuzzi bath in the bathroom. We would loved to have our door open and sit and admire the view however the guest next door smoked all evening so we had to keep our doors shut unles we wanted to share the cigarettes

We were not sure what to expect with our stay here. It is mostly a holiday campground for tents and trailers, but they have 8 hotel rooms for rent. The room and bathroom were spacious with a well-equipped kitchenette. There was a nice patio with chairs and a cafe table. The beds were comfortable and the room was spotless. The campground personnel were helpful and friendly. The campground is on a lovely lake with hiking trails. Fishing is close by. The location is conveniently located near Twizel. We were pleasantly surprised by our very comfortable accommodations.

A bit basic - no coffee maker other than instant. House keeping is nothing more than new towels and dish towels. Water backed up in the bath and all sinks on our last morning. The were still full when we left. Pay a little more and stay in a nicer place.

Quirky old style overnighter
The guy at teception was friendly. The place definitely takes you back in time. Humble basic set up needing some love The shower block was quirky but awesome shower temperature and strength. The bunk beds in our cabin wrre firm and squeaky. The cabin had a bar fridge which was great. Right next to the lake.
