This house is brand new, beautiful, and spotless! It is a simple and elegant design with an open kitchen/dining/living area. All the furnishings and finishes are fresh and new. We were very comfortable. It takes about 20 minutes to walk to town, but it was great to be within a block of the lake. It was not as fully stocked with kitchenware as some other houses and the hosts were relatively slow to respond to communications on checkin day, but we would highly recommend this house to anyone looking for a home base in Te Anau.
