We spent 4 days at Susan's place and found it a perfect base for exploring the Te Anau/Fiordland NP region. The house was easy to find in a quiet neighborhood just a couple minutes drive to the center of town or the lake. It is a stylishly/calmly furnished and laid out space and immaculately clean. We never tired of the fabulous view of the mountains behind Lake Te Anau - good in all weathers. It was easy to get to all the local activities including Milford sound kayaking, hiking local trails, etc. Though we were only two, the house would have been quite spacious for four, with nice shared spaces and patio with bbq. Susan was a communicative and friendly host, who supplied some local tips on where to find groceries etc. We'd happily use this home base again if in the area, as well as recommend it to others.
