“The house was perfect for our party of 8!”
The location is amazing!
The location is amazing!

Christine “I wish to thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us and our family.”
We celebrated our 50th Wedding Anniversary on 18th April 2025 where we enjoyed a lovely dinner cooked by our daughter and son. The home was lovely and warm, plenty of space for 5 adults and 3 grandkids. The views looking out over the lake to the mountains are stunning. I even managed to get a sunrise with a sun burst on Wednesday morning. We all loved waking to the sheep in the paddocks, geese flying, ducks in the lake, even enjoyed a visit from a Harrier Hawk. Simply lovely 6 nights. (we even manage to trap a field mouse in the kitchen, much to the grandkids delight.) I wish to thank you again. A very magical week. Warm Regards Christine and Tony Webb
- Christine, April 2025Allyson “Amazing place with amazing views would definitely book again, only negative I ...”
Amazing place with amazing views would definitely book again, only negative I have is the main door handle is not working great from the moment we hot there, it's missing screws and the handle on the inside kept coming off sometimes it took a good minutes to hey it shut properly
- Allyson, April 2025Andrew “Views are stunning, house inside really only fits 8 people though as dining table, sofas etc.”
a few issues in house like en-suite door broken, wrong door code for entry given initially, communication poor. Really should have tv in lounge and master bedroom as tv room is rediculous
- Andrew, October 2024Emma “We rented the Lake house for 4 nights with a group of 10 and did walks with Trips and Tramps in the area.”
It was a massive hit with everyone and really contributed to it being a great holiday. The position is stunning, the facilities were great and we were fortunate with beautiful weather. We hired a car so we could get into town to shop etc. The isolation on the edge of town was a bit part of the appeal. The changing landscape and water views were incredible. The only item that needs attention is the bath plug ! Couldn't get it to stop letting water through and therefore the post hike soak with salts was tricky, this is an easy fix. Other feedback was that towels to use for lake swim/spa use would be fantastic.
- Emma, March 2024Julie “Fantastic house!”
! 10/10
- Julie, March 2024Sheng Yuan “Perfect accommodation by the lake side.”
Very new and is nicely furnished. With ample space for the whole family and is super comfortable. Wish we get to stay longer there.
- Sheng Yuan, December 2023Lynaire “Fabulous property - very well equiped, spacious, clean, room for everyone, everything we needed.”
We were a mature group of 10 adults and we had a great time together. Lovely setting, and fabulous indoor and outdoor areas to gather as a group. Superb with 3 bathrooms.
- Lynaire, November 2023Careen “Amazing experience and great view.”
Five star to cleanliness and amenities. All of us enjoyed our stay.
- Careen, July 2023Jane “This property was amazing!”
Such a massive space with all the facilities you need, the spa was the extra icing on the cake. We all loved our stay! Only thing I would say was that the cleaners waiting outside for an hour or so before we had to leave was a wee bit annoying but otherwise a good stay!
- Jane, June 2023Thank you for taking the time to review your stay and we are delighted you enjoyed your stay in this ideally located Bach. In regards to check out, the property Manager (local) walks her dogs locally so this is why her car was present but we would never move a guest on until check out time of 10 am. On this occasion she just happened to be parked close by so sorry for any confusion this may have caused on checkout. Again, it was great to see you enjoyed your stay and we hope to see you back again soon. Bachcare
Lydia “Such a stunning location, the photos don't do it justice.”
We were lucky to have beautiful weather, and we thoroughly enjoyed sitting on the deck, staring at the magical view, appreciating the silence. The kitchen was very well equipped, and the bedrooms were really comfortable. Would definitely stay again. Make sure you let Bachcare know in advance if you want to check in early - we arrived an hour early (we didn't know what time we would arrive as we were travelling from Queenstown by car), and the property manager wouldn't (couldn't?) give us early access.
- Lydia, March 2023Barb “We loved our stay in this spacious home!”
Modern, relaxing space that was better than expected!
- Barb, March 2023Robin “A wonderful house for the 12 of us with fabulous views.”
Just a couple of comments - Some luggage racks in bedrooms and clothes hooks on back of doors for bedrooms without wardrobes would be great. Thankfully we did not use Spa Pool first night. A man came around first morning to drain Spa Pool as it evidently had "glass" in it. A note left inside on table to be read upon arrival of this fact would have been good. As it turned out no one got cut feet.
- Robin, March 2023Rohan “Fantastic stay.”
Really comfortable house with everything we needed. It worked out really well even with a group of 12 adults it still felt like we had enough space. Couldn't ask for a better view, i could definitely have spent all day just sitting on the couch or in the spa enjoying the views of the mountains across the lake. It was also a great house for exercise...being the furthest house from town in the entire development!! If you had a couple of bikes at the property it would be absolutely amazing
- Rohan, February 2023Paul “Could do with another bathroom”
- Paul, November 2022Aaron “Awesome house would definitely stay again.”
- Aaron, October 2022Aneita “A beautiful home with beautiful views.”
Our large group had a great stay at this property. It was clean and had plenty of space for everyone to be comfortable.
- Aneita, September 2022Teri “Stunning house!”
So roomy and absolutely perfect for large groups looking for a retreat.
- Teri, September 2022rachael “This is a beautiful home with stunning views of Lake Te Anau.”
The property manager was wonderful, and the home was equipped with everything we needed for our stay. I would definitely stay there again and highly recommend it.
- rachael, August 2022Tom “We loved our stay in the lake house.”
The main lounge/kitchen area was great and we loved that there wasn’t a TV in that section. The views were also way more spectacular than we expected - maybe some more photos of that in the listing?! We would have liked to have seen a coffee machine (nespresso or equivalent) but otherwise found the house/kitchen very well stocked and loved our time there.
- Tom, August 2022Lisa “We had such a wonderful time at the house in Te Anau!”
We were a large group and it was wonderful to have so much space indoors and out, and especially such a well-equipped kitchen to cater for all of us. The spa was a lovely bonus, and the view of the lake and mountains with direct access to the lakeside walking track were just great. We hope to be back again.
- Lisa, June 2022Jalyssa “ABSOLUTELY STUNNING!”
Highly, highly recommend! Great for large families/groups. It was well equipped. Seriously heaven on earth. Amazing space outside for the kids and family to all spread out. Amazing walks/views right on your backyard. We will be back! And for a bit longer too. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
- Jalyssa, May 2022Louise “Terrific house to enjoy with your family … awesome spa, under the stars (in the evening) to recap the days activities.”
Thanks.
- Louise, April 2022Julie “This house was stunning.”
Right on the lakefront and you could walk right out onto tracks. The place was clean and spacious. Excellent views of the mountains.
- Julie, March 2022Kylie “Awesome house with great amenities and a gorgeous view.”
So much room and the house is so cozy.
- Kylie, October 2021Will “This is a wonderful spot, next to the lakeside walking track with amazing surrounding views.”
The house is first class with plenty of bedrooms for different sleeping arrangements. Very warm interior with spaces to escape if needed. There is a huge outdoor space and a spa pool to enjoy the spectacular scenery. Highly recommended!
- Will, October 2021Suze “Stunning. On every level.”
Beautiful place in a beautiful location.
- Suze, April 2021Jude “Oustanding house and host in an outstanding location.”
We stayed 2 nights, but could easily have spent 5 nights here.
- Jude, March 2021Charles “A beautiful property, great layout and everything you could need.”
Beautiful views, easy to find and beautifully presented.
- Charles, December 2020Fleur “A wonderful house that I'd be happy to return to again and again!”
- Fleur, October 2020Kelly “The Lake House in Te Anau is a superb home.”
Beautiful furnishings, stunning scenery and so much room. This is the second time we have stayed and we'll be back again. 10/10
- Kelly, October 2020Quintan “Beautiful modern home with all the amenities.”
- Quintan, October 2020Steven “WOW! This place is amazing.”
Very new and modern with everything you could possibly need and more to make your stay as hassle free as possible. The rooms are large and airy and beds are very comfortable. Kitchen is modern with dishwasher, double oven and scullery to hide the mess away. Heating is also very good and the views amazing!! We had a group of 10 of us staying and the house was well equipped to cope with so many. The spa outside is a great touch too. Thanks :-)
- Steven, March 2020Fleur “A stunning property with gorgeous views right across to Mt Luxmore and the Murchison range.”
Peaceful and secluded while also being close to town, the best of rural and urban all in one.
- Fleur, December 2019Kelly “This house is perfection.”
Spacious, beautifully furnished and with a view that couldn't be beat. Just a wonderful house that we can't wait to stay in again.
- Kelly, October 2019John “This is a fantastic property, it has everything you would need for a short or long term stay, apart from a high chair and cot for our baby which we had to pay extra for, it would have been nice to have these items included rather than being a paid extra.”
The views of the lake and mountains from the main living area and bedrooms are superb. Te Anau itself is an interesting place and is a great base to explore the region.
- John, October 2019Hannah “Stunning home with a view to die for!”
!! We will be back!!!
