Classic Kiwi Bach – Walk to Town & Lakes
Classic Kiwi Bach..
Just a 2-minute stroll to town, this 3-bedroom bach is the perfect base for your Mackenzie Country escape. Enjoy a sunny deck, child-friendly section, heat pump, free WiFi, and all the essentials.
Close to lakes, fishing spots, cafes, fairy forest, Omarama’s Clay Cliffs & pools, star gazing, scenic walks, pump track, and Tekapo. Relax or explore!
Note: This is not a full time air bnb, it is a private owned family bach/crib, available at certain times of the year when we are not requiring it, it is quirky and is set up simple.. kiwi, with all the basics!

住屋外觀，前、後花園很漂亮，停車位充足，足夠停泊三輛車，屋內設施則略為殘舊，櫃內有很多雜物存放，浴室沒有浴簾，每次洗澡後地面很濕，洗衣機有點髒，其他床褥、廚房用具還可以，不過屋主Summer很好，每次查詢都很快回覆，且主動介紹附近景點和餐廳。

Spacious inside with a great backyard. Walkable to all we wanted in town and an easy drive to Aoraki/Mount Cook National Park. Kudos to the host who was helpful and responsive.
