We spent joyful 5 nights at Sam's house, what a wonderful experience!
The house is big enough for our 3 people family, with fully equipped kitchen. There's a playground in the yard, my son loves it so much. My best favorite place is the deck, it has great view of lake Wanaka and the Treble Cone. I enjoyed time of reading books and drinking beer there in the evening - sunset time is 10:00PM in summer!
The location of this house is close to town center within a walkable distance, 5 minutes walking to the lake.
The hosts are very nice, the 2 lovely kids are impressive.
