Lake houses in Lake Tekapo

We made a huge mistake when only booking this place for part of our stay. My thought was to jump around the South Island with my family at a couple stops. Had I known it was this awesome, then I would’ve booked our whole time at Anna’s. This place is exactly what my family loves. The kids will definitely be complaining about where we stay next. This property is AWESOME.

Loved our stay here. Super convenient location with lake view. Sally was really responsive and friendly as well, thanks for the amazing stay!

We really enjoyed our stay. The outdoor fire pit was wonderful, the place was very well stocked, and very peaceful.

great house and heating! we don't feel cold even though it's winter! Also very responsive host!

This place is amazing and have beautiful surroundings. A lot of thoughts put into it to make the stay comfortable for the guests. The place is unique from outside and super cozy inside. Definitely one of the highlight on our trip to South Island!

We had a wonderful stay at Jan’s place. We loved all of the details and the interesting art, books and furniture. It felt really homely and there were lots of helpful and thoughtful touches. The beds were all really comfortable with lovely fresh linen. Jan was an incredible host who really made sure that our stay was enjoyable. She was accommodating with a few last minute changes and always responded to messages promptly. We will definitely be booking a stay at Jans the next time we are in Otematata.

Nice and beautiful house. Kitchen is also perfect for preparing dinner.

This is the place brings you peaceful mind. Will definitely bring back my parents here next time. It's so quiet and private that you can only hear the birds chirping. It's like the real-life ASMR that can calm you down. I really like all the facilities that keep guests stay warm. For example, the cap in the shower room, heating pad for every bed, and aircon is also available. Also we had several animal visitors like bunnies and a cat. Very nice and cute.

Super epic location and Airbnb. It had the simple things we needed for our visit, and had a beautiful view of Mt Cook and was perfect for stargazing. We would recommend!!

Nice host, very quiet place! The householder was friendly and welcoming, and the location was peaceful—perfect for a relaxing stay. Also, I highly recommend visiting Fairlie Bakehouse for delicious treats.

We thoroughly enjoyed staying in Snowshoe Cottage, amidst stunning scenery in quiet and peaceful surrounding area and fantastic walks. We especially loved the amazing sunrise and sunset from just outside her house, virtually at the doorstep! We appreciate the comfortable furnishings and thoughtful decor throughout the house.

We had a wonderful, relaxing stay at the cottage. It was so cosy and everything had been thought of - comfortable bed, skylight for stargazing, outdoor bath and even slippers. We appreciated all the baby items that were set up and the toys and books. It’s in a great location and a short drive to so many great walks and scenic spots. Thank you Sean & Jana for creating such a special place.

Clean and cosy unit in Twizel, great hub for visiting Mt cook and Lake Tekapo. Check in was easy and Jennifer also provided a nice selection of movies and books

Absolutely loved Adele’s place. We met her when checking in and she shared great tips and recommendations for Lake Tekapo. We walked into town on a path right from the place and enjoyed the hill located so close. Unfortunately the weather didn’t allow us to stargaze but that did not stop us from enjoying our stay. We truly wish we stayed another day!

My partner and I had a fantastic time staying at this property. Not only was the location perfect, quiet and private, we also woke up to the most beautiful sunrise with snow covering the mountains. We would both highly recommend this place and would stay again in a heart beat.

The home was perfect in every way. Close enough to the town center, yet far enough way to allow quite, privacy and beautiful sun rises! Not far from Aoraki/Mt. Cook National park and good Salmon for dinner! We would stay again!

Very relaxing and well thought out, the host was very accommodating. Highly recommended a couple nights, the late checkout makes leaving so much more relaxing too.

Rowan house is super clean and tidy, this house has amazing view to mt. Dobson . Super big house and super comfy. Will be back 100%

A group of girlfriends had the best weekend here. So cozy and well catered for and we will be back very soon x absolutely loved it thanks 🙏

What a wonderful house! We arrived at the beginning of a rain storm, and we were so happy to see the heat was already on. It was a nice surprise to walk into a cozy warm house. The next morning we woke to find the mountains all around covered in snow. The views from the house were spectacular. Make sure you bring food when you come, the nearest stores are about 25-30mins away. If you’re anything like us, once you are settled in for the night you don’t want to drive an hour for dinner. The home has a nicely stocked kitchen with most things you need to cook a meal. There was plenty of firewood to keep a nice fire going all day, and the hot tub out back was quite enjoyable.

We had a wonderful stay! The place was nice and cozy, conveniently located near restaurants (within 2km), and the internet was great. It truly had everything we needed. We will definitely stay here again if we visit Twizel in the future!

Fantastic place to stay! Located close to Lake Tekapo and lots of other beautiful locations. The house is in a dark sky area and without clouds would offer spectacular views of the night sky whilst enjoying the hot tub. We had everything we needed and would highly recommend this quirky house and had great fun exploring the area and playing the games in the upstairs room. Thank you so much 😊

Adele’s place was absolutely incredible — peaceful, private, and surrounded by the beauty of nature, with sheep grazing in the nearby pasture. The outdoor tub under the stars was a magical extra! Everything was spotlessly clean and thoughtfully designed, making it the perfect way to end our New Zealand holiday. Thank you Adele!

The room was well managed in every corner, and it was helpful because it had everything I needed.The manager responded quickly to questions and responded quickly, and there was no trouble.The view was really wonderful, and it was a house I would love to stay in again.Also, there are hares in the garden It was cute.
