Lovely hosts, very clean and relatively new facilities, comfortable beds, well-kitted kitchen, and a pretty good view of the mountains and deer (in the paddock) across the road from the cottages. Manapouri is about 15 minutes drive from Te Anau, is lovely and quiet, and is where the boats for Doubtful Sound leave from. We had a lovely couple of... More

Who could ask for more! We arrived to enjoy Autumn leaves, snow on the mountain peaks and the full moon over Lake Manapouri. In addition we discovered wonderful and generous hospitality, spacious accommodation and a setting that was more than magic. We are glad that we discovered such a wonderful place which was central to Milford and Doubtful Sounds and... More

This clean, modern cottage is really excellent value. It is relatively new, rooms are comfortable, with heater, tv, and well-equipped kitchen and washing area. But, what really takes the cake here, is the million-dollar mountain view from the porch, on which we enjoyed a perfect sunset while we were there. There is also a big, and I mean BIG, field... More

I'm so glad we found this property! It's so nice staying here, much nicer than anywhere we saw in Te Anau. The thing we liked best is the big deck that catches the last of the evening sun - the mountain views are just gorgeous! Plus you can eat outside on the big picnic table and enjoy the views. The...

These are well equipped, immaculate, and new self contained cottages slightly outside of lake manapouri.the best part was a washer and dryer that helped us wash our clothes mid way through our vacation. We loved having 2 separate bedrooms as well as our own picnic table to enable us to dine outside as the sun was setting. Jen was helpful... More

These two cottages have been built by Zeb and are extremely well designed and comfortable. We stayed three nights in order to visit both Doubtful and Milford Sounds. The location is absolutely ideal for Doubtful Sound and as we were driving to Milford it made little difference that we were not in Te Anau for that trip. Zeb was extremely... More

The two of us shared one of the two bedroom cottages for three nights. While there is nothing fancy about the cottage, it is new, comfortable, very clean and has everything you need. Having the laundry included was appreciated also. Not knowing the area we were concerned that we needed to be in Te Anua to experience the Milford Sound.... More

We had a fantastic two night stay. One of the best places we stayed in NZ. To say that this cottage is clean, is an understatement, it is spotless. Zeb and Janice have done an absolute fantastic job. Everyone comments on how great the beds are - they are very comfortable and you will not be disappointed staying at this... More
