    This very spacious and comfortable house is also located at a very convenient location at Lake Tekapo. We can easily see how this would be the perfect vacation house for families and close friends to all gather and enjoy the beautiful lake together.

    "Little Birch" was a wonderful vacation home for us. Modern furnishings, good WiFi, very well equipped, flooded with light and clean. The location is also ideal: walking distance to the famous chapel on the lake, as well as to all the restaurants in the village. Nevertheless, it was quiet at night. A clear recommendation from us.

    It could’ve been a nice stay, but I happened to catch them out by chance. THEY DON’T CHANGE THE BEDDING BETWEEN GUESTS. And according to Greg, owner of Book Tekapo, ‘every holiday home company in New Zealand’ does this. Apparently its industry standard to not fully change bedding between bookings. Book Tekapo manage over 50 holiday properties in the area, so beware if you’re looking around Lake Tekapo. Please read more below!

    Thank you very much for hosting us -- we really enjoyed our stay! The place is gorgeous -- it feels just like a holiday home. The view of the lake is fantastic. It's very clean and warm -- I see some reviews say the house is too cold; the tip is to use the heatpump as instructed because in really cold environment turning the heatpumps higher may cause the heater to not perform well.
