Host profile image
We are a family of 4 who love to escape to the Mackenzie country to enjoy this majestic area. When we found this gem of a property, we were excited that we could share our beautiful space with people who want a lovely space to stay in, in this magnificent area of the world.

Why they chose this property

For 15 years our family has enjoyed the beautiful lakes of the Mackenzie area and sitting watching the water, or clouds and amazing skies that the area has to offer. Twizel too has some great little shops and restaurants that we highly encourage you to check out!

What makes this property unique

This property is a like a tiny home, with a modern, beautiful feel. It is both private and quiet, but still right in the centre of town. The outdoor garden with barbeque and outdoor bath is a great place to sit out and watch the stars, without having to travel a step! Enjoy
