This motel as well priced and had views of the lake. Also it was close to town and the jetty. The room had everything we needed for self catering. The beds were comfortable and the room was spotless. We were only here for 1 night but would recommend this motel for a longer stay.

Owner were very helpful with all our questions and allowed us to check in early so we could come back later in the evening at our leisure. As we were traveling outside of peak season this option was available but my guess it would be different in peak season based on room availability. Location was very close to town and... More

Owners very helpful and positively reactive to comments and requests we made. Two bed Apartment was good and clean. kitchen fairly well equiped (pots/pans/utensils/ tea/coffee/sugar/washing liquid). Needed extra work surface so we brought in the garden table from the verandah. One of the bedrooms was very small and needed to have some storage, although no space in the bedroom there... More

The Red Tussock is not extraordinary: it provides what you 'd expect from a mid-range New Zealand Motel: spacious rooms with all necessities you can think of. Staff is friendly and helpful. Two 1st floor rooms have balconies on which you can enjoy the evening sun. The village center is about a 10 minute walk along the lake. It won't... More

The Red Tussock was a really good find a bit of a walk from town about 10 minutes but well worth it we paid a bit extra for a lake view which was a small lake view but none the less had a nice balconey and it was right on the beach. The owners were very helpful with booking trips... More

We stayed in the 3-bedroom apartment with 6 people. There was room for more people, though perhaps only having one bathroom limits how many people you would want to stay there. The set-up was a bit odd - the apartment was upstairs, but the door to the upstairs doesn't lock, the one downstairs does, but there is an access to... More

We had a 1st floor room at the end by the road so we had glimpses of the lake. This being part of a long tour of NZ and was probably our 20th Motel, I was very impressed. The room was tastly furnished and decorated and you felt at home. Not much traffic noise as Te Anau is not exactly... More

I had a ground floor room of a two story unit. Queen + single beds, analog tv, bathroom with shower, kitchenette, dinette table with 3 chairs, 2 other chairs. The room was spacious enough for one and the accommodation was clean. My only complaint was that the walls were paper thin and all outside noises, including traffic and upstairs tenants,... More

The room was immaculate, appeared to be newly decorated. bathroom was fab and bed most comfy of the whole trip. Kitchen accommodated our needs with good supply of equipment. The proprietor was awesome, so helpful and let us leave our car overnight when we went on the Milford Mariner. Top marks we will be back.
