Ebel and Maxine were perfect hosts and wonderful folks, and it was our pleasure to spend our evenings with them while enjoying the beautiful mountain backdrop of Lake Te Anau! They were beyond accommodating with our toddler, who had his own room, porta-cot, and run of the toy chest. We essentially had access to the entire house and were given our own space in the kitchen and refrigerator, plus use of the laundry in the garage. We were encouraged to treat the house like our own home but would have had plenty of space even if we had been confined to our wing (2BR/large 1BA) of the house. The only drawback was that it was unusually hot during our stay, though we eventually cooled down thanks to our hosts taking pity on us and turning on the air conditioning...which is -not- a common convenience in NZ! Overall, we had everything we needed and felt like we were staying with family (but less awkward!). Would recommend in a heartbeat.
