This was the most beautiful, well organised, thoughtful, and relaxing accomodation that we have ever stayed in. It was like walking into a family home, and we felt so welcome and looked after by the hosts Megan and David. The house was spacious, clean, well equipped, warm, and comfortable, and we felt right at home immediately. The views and proximity to the lake were outstanding. Thank you for a wonderful stay, we would love to return one day.

Great place in amazing location

The house was perfect for our family holiday. Very tidy and plenty of space. Communication from property manager was great, making our trip very easy. The location is awesome if you are into the outdoors, with skiing, fishing and walks in the many national parks close by.

Ohau paradise

Great location. Great property. Great holiday. Very impressed with info supplied in case of civil defence emergency etc. Although communication about entry to premises could be better from Bookabach and informing guests that the water is not safe to drink unless boiled would be beneficial allowing guests to buy bottled water before arrival.

Lovely spacious house in quiet neighborhood

Our group of 4 really enjoyed this rental. It is in a quiet neighborhood with a beautiful view of Lake Ohau. At night it was dark enough to see thousands of stars. This home is quite spacious. There are two main living rooms. The kitchen is large and well stocked. There are three comfortable bedrooms. We really enjoyed the large wrap around porch.

Great family Bach.

Perfect location for boating/fishing/water skiing. Great views of the lake and the house was well positioned to still be able to sit outside in the wind. Great communication from the owner/manager for an easy fun holiday.

Fantastic views in Ohay

Great stay, gorgeous views, easy check-in, and well stocked. Property manager made a reservation for us at the Lake Ohau Lodge with good food/wine and a wonderful view of Mt. Cook. Easy scenic drive to Lake Tekapo, Lake Pukaki, clay cliffs, and through Lindis Pass. Very much enjoyed our stay and highly recommend this place.
