Liked: Cleanliness
The fridge was not functioning when we arrived. It had apparently been switched off for cleaning and not switched on again. The bed lacked electric blankets. This strikes us as strange given that Tekapo is reported as being the coldest town in the country... The unit was a little bit tired and in need of new paint and fittings e.g. the toilet roll holder. On the plus side, the spa pool was great and the outlook onto a small park, pleasant.

Very nicely located in a tranquil corner near the famous Church and very photogenic Lake Tekapo. Within walking distance to the main strip and very close to the Tekapo Springs. The place itself was very comfortable with TV Wifi, full kitchen and laundry machine -- ideal for a family of four who want to spend a week by the lake. I hope to come again when the weather

the wooden house itself is the parts of scenery
Lake Tekapo Cottages is a group of small cabin in the woods by the lake, very close to The Church of the Good Shepherd. The interior and exterior of the cabin are well managed, and the interior of the cabin is clean and tidy.
