This was a wonderful stay: quiet, spacious, clean and comfortable. The views of the lake and mountains out of the living room were heaven. It was also nice to have a kitchen and a washer and dryer. The place is all on one level too, without any stairs through the garage so it feels easy to come and go, carting your bags and everything. We took the Doubtful Sound cruise tour which is a short 5 minute drive from the house - probably could have walked it. The tour was amazing and the relaxing stay made Manapouri our favorite stop in Southland. Highly recommend.
