The Bivy is comfortable, spacious and quiet. If you want to go to Te Anau but prefer to avoid the tour buses - head to Manapouri! 10 minutes or so down the road, the Bivy is ideal for a couple of days, near to the Doubtful Sound cruises, short (and long) walks around Lake Manapouri, and 1 minute from a general store and the Church cafe/restaurant for great pub food and atmosphere. Thanks Carolyn!
