Travelocity Verified Review
"Very clean room, spacious, sunny and stunning views from bedroom. Very clean and well serviced kitchenette. Was wheel chair unit so large bathroom and plenty of space for a wheel chair user. Pet friendly with doggie friends for our old boy. Very clean outside re no animal droppings, even with the two resident chooks. No animal smell in units at all. Units well aired. Owners friendly and super helpful re places to see, to eat, shop hours for groceries. So handy to town and Lake Matheson with walkway right outside to both. Stunning views of Mts Tasman and Cook. Want to go back for a week at least next time."
