Fran’s place is a remarkable gem with crisp views of the cyan waters of Lake Hawea. We found the bed rejuvenating after full days of exploring the mountains and lakes of the Southern Alps. Fran was an accommodating and kind host who made us feel at home. The ablutions were clean and hot water was excellent. It is close to conveniences like the sumptuous Hawea Store. This cozy space is a wonderful spot for a holiday.
