环境非常好,独立house,克制看普卡基湖,天气好能看到点库克山
La vue est magnifique sur le lac ! Le logement est très bien aménagé et confortable. Tout était super !
Beautiful lake views. Steep but well formed path down to the lakeside. Excellent water pressure. Shampoo, conditioner and body wash provided. Comfortable beds Plunger coffee provided Code given for access so no issues with arrival time variability.
ur host exceeded all of our expectations. The accommodation met all of our needs perfectly, and every message we sent was answered promptly. The host was always kind, helpful, and willing to assist us whenever we needed anything. We are truly grateful for all the help and hospitality during our stay. The place was comfortable, well-maintained, and made our trip so much more enjoyable. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this accommodation to anyone visiting the area. Thank you so much for everything!
Love the location with stunning views of the lake and the cottage was cosy, clean and comfy.
Premium location, incredible full view of Lake Pukaki. Right on Mount Cook road, easy to navigate. The property is large, comfortable, and totally undisturbed.
The lake view, so beautiful
Nothing, may be no dishwasher and washing machine
地理位置非常棒
環境乾淨
浴缸似乎無法使用,儲水約一小時持續漏水無法泡澡,比較可惜。無洗衣機設備。
The view from above the Lake was spectacular. Facilities were great and had everything you needed to prepare meals. Very peaceful and relaxing, but still very close to Mt Cook
Die Lage war wunderbar, einsam und absolut privat und doch zentral zu unseren geplanten Zielen um den Mount Cook gelegen. Das Haus war riesig und mit allem ausgestattet, was wir brauchten.
Das Doppelbett war sehr durchgelegen und damit zu zweit sehr unbequem. Das hätten wir leider keine Woche ausgehalten.
度假屋的位置非常棒,独享Pukaki湖畔的风景,客厅和饭厅面积大,设施齐全。离Twizel10分钟车程,购物回来做饭非常方便,厨具齐全。洗衣机和烘干机是旅行中的好帮手。在库克山徒步后回来修整非常惬意。
Lovely place. Good facilities. Gorgeous view of the lake.
House right beside the cottage, so not as isolated as expected. Also water sprinklers activity impacted on ability to sit out & enjoy the garden& view, host did turn off after I requested same.
Gorgeous location, well equipped kitchen
Listing had indicated laundry which we understood to be a washer but that was incorrect. Also there was a mouse which was caught but still took some of the charm or of the stay
住宿地點距離道路有一段距離,因此附近非常的親近大自然,周遭全是草皮以及樹木,並且於夜晚時刻完全沒有任何的光害,走出房源可以看到滿天的星空,運氣好一點甚至可以看到銀河! 另外從照片上看房源似乎離湖邊很近,但其實需要走約莫15-20分鐘的碎石路才能抵達湖邊(需要沿著房源後方徑直走下去)
住宿費用真的挺貴的
位置,房间设施都很满意。早上还拍到了绝美日出。
木质房子,晚上确实会有吱吱响声,但影响不大。
We loved the remote and beautiful location of the cottage. If was tastefully furnished and very comfortable. We picked boysenberries on the path down to the lake which were delicious. The night skies were superb.
Nothing, it was perfect for us.
房屋非常好,风景很美
除了两个卫生间同时出热水会相互影响以外,其他都很完美
就在pukaki湖边,非常安静!离twizel小镇十分钟路程,买东西很方便,周围有个薰衣草农场,有空可以去打卡,冰激凌很不错。到库克山国家公园大概40分钟路程,也很方便,途中的peter's lookout堪称完美!当然最最最印象深刻的就是主人家的金毛Hari,很很很友善的狗狗,每天晚饭时刻总会来,大概是牛排的香味吧,哈哈,最后天我们退房,甚至来欢送我们!爱狗人士必须入住!

Le cadre et la vue sont exceptionnels !! La maison est bien équipée et propre, la literie est confortable et le jardin est magnifique.
La maison craque beaucoup, surtout la nuit. Ça peut être assez suprenant et gênant.

Very nice and quiet place to relax. There is the House and the Cottage. We stayed at the smaller Cottage and it was perfect for us. The lake view was spectacular. Nice to meet the friendly dog Hari. Had fresh salmon sashimi lunch at Twizel. Visit to Mt Cook and hike at Hooker Valley Trail was so beautiful. Dropped by at The Heritage Hotel for some nice snack and coffee.
None
Location. Stunning views and facing the lake
There are 8 of us. 1. Toilet rolls were only 3 rolls. 2. Garbage plastic bags were only 4 pieces. Have to ask for extra pieces 3. A dog was wondering outside of the house. We are allergic to dogs
This is a very well presented lake side House with only one other cottage in close proximity. There was plenty of space (especially as we were only a couple) with outstanding veiws across the lake from the kitchen, lounge and 2 of the main Bedrooms. Kitchen was lager enough with an island with all you need to cook a meal. Both bathroom and shower room are reasonably large and to a high standard. Although we did have an issue with one of the drains not flowing, but was quickly sorted once we highlighted to the owner. The price does reflect the quality and location of the property but is definitely worth it.
Nothing to speak of, if you're looking for a place where you can just walk to the shops and local restaurants then this is not for you. It is a remote location and that is what makes this special
The location, comfortable beds, well stocked kitchen, amazing views
Nothing
The view was superb. Great view of the lake. Great garden to walk around in. Great big space. Loved the light coming through the living room windows. How the windows framed the lake. It was like a postcard. Well equipped. Had everything we needed. We stayed in the House. If you like peace and quiet, this is the place for you. Didn't need to go to Mount John observatory to do star gazing (and pay $$$ for it). We could see the stars right from the porch (weather permitting). Great big TV with lots of channels. Kids liked it. Hari the dog (golden retriever) is super cute. He likes belly rubs. Gives very irresistible puppy dog eyes. I think he mainly comes by around dinner time (hoping for a snack). But don't feed him! Location is great if you want to go to Mount Cook area often for hiking. Also near to Twizel (for supermarkets, restaurants). Better than the very crowded and touristy Lake Tekapo. Owners also own the lavender farm down the road. The lavendar farm is worth a visit. Products are all manufactured there. Would stay here again.
Had to get used to the creaking in the wood structure. It is natural but for city folk like us it just needed some getting use to. My advice is to embrace it and embrace being close to nature.
The location. It was very clean. The TV channels and Wi-Fi were excellent
The sensor light outside the main Bedroom came on during the night and was quite disturbing
Kitchen well equipped
各方面都不错,真心喜欢,有机会还会再来
Amazing location, beautiful property, close enough to town but felt very removed and private
We didn’t get to meet Hari :(
Location is exceptionally good and beautiful
Facilities are minimal compared to the cost.
Remote cottage overlooking the lake was quiet and quite stunning views. The cottage is located nicely between Mt Cook village, Twizel and Tekapo so a great base to explore the area. Cottage was spacious and comfortable.
Awesome view lovely house great night sky!
Absolutely stunning location and a perfect place to relax. The house is beautifully designed, spacious, and incredibly comfortable, with everything you need for a peaceful stay. Waking up to the panoramic views of Lake Pukaki and the surrounding mountains was a real highlight — truly unforgettable. We loved the quiet, private setting and the feeling of being surrounded by nature while still enjoying all the modern comforts.
Lake Pukaki ist nicht besonders bekannt, aber sehr schön. Das Cottage liegt direkt am See, ist gut ausgestattet und sehr geräumig

湖边的木屋别墅真的太美了,风景没得说,周围还能看见好多野兔;house有四个房间,空间还行,两间临湖两间面花园,厨房设施齐全,做好早晚餐在露台上享用非常惬意,还有他们可爱的小狗Hari会在日落后和主人散步经过,难忘的经历
都很好
A little slice of heaven.
Views are the main point of this stay. That's the main thing I really love about it. Also love the majestic golden retriever that visits us whenever it wishes !
Nothing really
景真的太讚了,所有的用品都配備齊全 床也非常舒服,廁所有兩間很足夠 每天有人泡澡,熱水也都沒有用完
電力似乎不穩定,好幾個房間的燈或插座突然無法啟用
The lake views were amazing. The house was nice and clean. Kitchen had everything you needed. Peaceful location. Easy drive to Aoraki/Mount Cook National park.
Nothing not to like when you have a view like that of the lake.
Breathtaking view, peace and quiet
Stunning view, quiet area

地段幽静,设施齐全,房间够大,床很多可以睡很多人,停车方便
油烟机是坏的
Perfect location for exploring Mt Cook and the surrounding area. Close enough to Twizel to restock on supplies or go out for dinner but giving the perfect wilderness experience. Super comfortable beds, great shower, good cooking facilities, warm (we stayed during winter) and perfect for a family getaway. Loved it.
Ever so slight chlorine smell when we first arrived.
Brilliant location, quiet, lots of space, well appointed & awesome lake views. In addition, it was handy to Twizel for shopping & not too far to Tekapo for dinner or a visit and of course a beautiful drive into Mt Cook Village. We stopped by the airport & took a helicopter flight!
Some curtains missing in the smaller bedrooms. The location was private, but you don't want to be thinking about it. Although we thoroughly enjoyed the cottage the picture shown by Books.com was of the house next door which I feel is misleading.
Beautiful outlook right by the lake, clean and warm, had everything we needed.
The lake view is excellent, the surrounding is quiet and private.
There are two guys come and knock the other day morning when we were having breakfast, around 9:30 am if I remember correctly. They claim that they're here to measure the size for new window or something. Although they did not enter the room, but it's still kind of disturbing, would be nice if we've been noticed in advance.
The location and the views are amazing. Beautiful sunsets and lovely night sky views. 40 minutes to Mount Cook, 40 minutes to Lake Tekapo and 20 minutes to Twizel.
We spent the month travelling across New Zealand, and this was the most expensive accommodation we booked, and it was not good value for money. We don't mind spending, when it is worth it. The property was basic, no decor. Absolutely no storage facilities, no wardrobes to even hang up some clothes which we even had in the cheapest accommodation. The single beds were uncomfortable, there was also a door leading outside from one of the twin rooms that did not lock. Our friends were a little uncomfortable with this, especially as we arrived at night. We called our hosts and asked for help, as we had many issues when we arrived. The owner arrived and he just laughed when we mentioned the door and said he didn't know where the key was but told us it would be fine as we were in the middle of nowhere. We also couldn't get the TV to work, which he eventually fixed but the issue with that is that they have very outdated facilities so it doesn't work properly. The photos make it look very private, but we had other guests walking right along our property at night and through the day, we didn't realise that was another property so close as the photos made it look very secluded. The bedrooms felt unclean, cobwebs and spiders. There were holes in the walls. The electric clearly needs looking at, as we weren't allowed to use the toaster and kettle at the same time, which is just ridiculous when you are paying so much for a property. The outside lights didn't work which was very difficult when we arrived at night. Again we reported this and we were just told they didn't know and the caretaker was away, so it just wasn't dealt with. We didn't find the owner the most helpful, and there were ridiculous rules that were only sent to us after we could no longer cancel, even telling us how to sleep in the bed to save them washing.
The cottage location is magical, the view is stunning, the peace and quiet was unmatched. Sunset, full moon rising over the mountains and reflecting on the lake, sunrise over the mountains, such an array of natural wonders. The cottage was well equipped, well presented and comfortable. The heating worked perfectly and the beds were comfortable with nice thick blankets. Drinking a hot cuppa while watching the lake was blissful. The shower had a good flow and plenty of hot water. Room for improvement? Possibly a few sharp knives for chopping and a few small bowls, for those who like to make their own dinner. Overall a fabulous property I would recommend.
Perfect location, the cottage had everything you need. We will definitely stay here again! Loved it!
Nothing!
Extraordinary location on a lake with serene atmosphere. Immaculate cottage. Very comfortable. Owner super helpful when I had a flat tire on a Sunday and no local repair/assistance businesses were open. She arranged for 2 men from her ranch to drive 20 miles to help me. Can’t thank them enough.
Great location to get some secluded time. And stunning views of moonrise and sunrise. I liked that the bathrooms felt nicer /upgraded. Easy to get to Twizel for food or groceries.
My mistake, but I didn't realize it would take 40 minutes to get to My Cook village / hiking.
Beautiful location. Very secluded. Nicely appointed. The kitchen is well equipped
Easy to locate the house

Great location for getting to the valley trail. Beautiful lake view. Clean. Comfortable beds. Roomy. Incredible water pressure.
Too close to other house. I could hear everything said on their deck since it is on the cottage side. This really took away from being out in the country. Missing the little extras like ziplock bags, and plastic wrap. Minimal decorating.
Comfortable beds, great view, and convenient location between Twizel, Tekapo, and Mt Cook. Good fishing only 7 min from the accomm by the dam.
We thought it was located a bit closer to the water, it is elevated which has its perks... like the view. But is a heft hike to the waters edge.
The location was perfect. Secluded. We'll appointed and cared for property. Sitting outside on the deck star gazing.
Amazing location. Super clean. Had everything needed in the house. Kids loved the beach.
Stay with out of the world views. Photos do not do justice and need to be experienced in real. Loved everything about it. Tamara was very helpful to stay In touch n keep me posted to assist with checkin.
The garden was beautiful, the house a right size for us, the location - splendid. We had unequalled views of Lake Town (Lake Pukaki) and it was a dream fulfilled. We would love to come back. The kitchen was well equipped and the staff, very friendly and welcoming.

Location was good, bathroom was nice. Did let us use washer next door, no working dryer
No grill, no laundry.
We stayed for 2 nights. Lakeview is superb with serene waters of lake pukaki The property is big and you can take long walks & play with kids. The rooms are well furnished, large & airy and has a big bathroom with a bathtub ( helps after a trek ) and a nice kitchen. Heaters in all rooms and nice comfortable sofas. We got an early check in thanks to the hosts and a slightly late checkout also. Must visit for your Mount cook trip as aptly placed for mount cook and tekapo ( 40 km odd )
All was what was described.... But yes a dishwasher & washing machine will help for longer srays
Absolute perfect location. A beautiful, well appointed home.
Views are even better than the pictures. Bath tub was really nice. Kitchen was provided with every thing we needed for cooking. Comfortable parking. There’s a path to reach the beautiful lake. It’s so quiet. The garden is very well maintained.
In general, it looks like an old house that hasn’t been renewed lately. Furniture with clear signs of wear, windows that didn’t close properly and were not clean, etc. Very expensive for what you get. We asked them to use the other’s house laundry since it wasn’t occupied and the entrance is independent from the rest of the house but they just said “I’m afraid not.” Probably one of those gestures that makes the difference.
Excellent lake view nicely tucked away at the lake edge away from all the noise but only 1/2 drive away from mnt Cook hikes. Good heating and very clean cabin.
The location is absolutely stunning, peaceful and the cottage had everything we needed for our stay.

The views are amazing great spot to just sit back relax and enjoy the view after walking the hooker valley track.
An extra roll of toilet paper would have been good
The lake views were exceptional. A real cottage feel, cosy beds and the shower was awesome. Loved our visits from a friendly dog named Hari! But again, the views were world class, such a privilege to wake up to.
Views are unmatched, cottage was lovely to stay in. Each room had a radiator heater and the living room a split system, the bathroom had underfloor heating and a heated towel rail as well as a gas heater wall fan. Exceptionally cosy place to stay. All the grounds were incredibly cared for. Would recommend this stay to absolutely everyone.
There was some long hair left in the bath, as well as the shower drain wouldn’t drain, so I had to pop the tile drain cover off and it was matted with hair. Didn’t affect our stay at all but a small detail gone missed by the cleaning staff. You are maybe 10 metres away from the house / cottage and other guests so the night sky depends on your neighbours turning the outside lights off when they go to bed.
The views are really stunning.. Clear check in instructions, easy to drive. A quiet but cozy place, beautiful sunrise and night sky. The bed and sofa is comfortable, kitchen is fully equipped.

The lake view. We had the most exceptional weather. The house was very clean and tidy. The kitchen had everything we needed and the bathroom was a great size. Beds were comfortable. A really great well looked after cottage.
Just a stunning location
An amazing house right on the edge of Lake Pukaki. Fantastic views. Well appointed with all the facilities you could want. Great kitchen equipment etc. Plenty of parking, laundry facilities. Huge lounge. Coffee and tea left for us which was great.
Really can’t think of anything that could have been better.
A quiet place overlooking the lake. Very comfortable and clean. Only 30 mins to Mt Cook National park. Great sunrise!
So amazing scene~ Nice owner~fully equipment in kitchen ~ Very clean and comfortable 👍
No
Fantastic location, lovely cottage!!
Incredible view Lovely grass area Spacious loving area
A clearer path to the lake would be appreciated
Upon arrival, the host quickly responded to any questions. The location was absolutely stunning set upon a hill overlooking Lake Pukaki. The home was very comfortable and the kitchen was well supplied with pots and pans, a few cooking oils and seasonings so we were able to have a wonderful home cooked meal a week into our journey through New Zealand. It was a wonderful place to stay as it was a 45 minute drive to Mt. Cook where we hiked to Lake Hooker. We were able to come back, relax and enjoy the evening. This is a perfect location for travelers to recover, hike, do laundry and have a family cooked meal. We were also impressed by the wood craftsmanship in the home.

The view from the property was spectacular, absolutely beautiful. The house was very well equipped and very comfortable.
