Cute little “tiny house” that worked out perfectly for three adults and could accommodate a couple more if you were a family or really good friends. It had most every convenience you could hope for including a dishwasher—the last thing I want to do on vacation is wash dishes!!!
We loved how close it was to the lake and the paths around the lake. It is a beautiful area with magnificent views of the lake. It was much quieter and less touristy than Te Anau, which is exactly what we we’re looking for.
We enjoyed many meals next door at the Church. The food was fantastic and we enjoyed the locals vibe and chatting with some of the locals. Everyone we met in New Zealand was very friendly.
If you are looking for a very clean and cozy place to stay away from the bustle of Te Anau but still close to all the sights and accessible to Te Anau with a 15-30 minute drive, I would highly recommend a stay at the Bivy.
