We loved staying here and wish it could have been for longer! Wanaka is a gen of a town and we loved staying in Lou'a lovely apartment. We were lucky to meet three of the puppies before they go off to their new homes, but even without them there are the chickens and adult dogs plus the beautiful garden to enjoy. From the house it's about a 20 minute stroll down to the lake and town. The view from the lake is breathtaking. This might have been our favorite stop on our trip. Highly recommend!
