comfortable place with all the comforts you need to enjoy the starry wonders tekapo has to offer. the GPS directions may be a little off reaching the place, telling you to take a dirt road (please dont). get your groceries from 4square before heading up to the house cos you're gonna comfortable enough you may not wanna leave. chameleon stargazing is the best option for a great star gazing experience and its pretty close to the house (you'll need to drive tho). definitely able to get great shots of the milky way even from the house using a phone camera, just keep the curtains drawn!
