First, the property is absolutely stunning. From the moment you walk into the main lodge, it's tough not to get overwhelmed by the view of the lake through the giant windows. We stayed in one of the cabins, which was nice and private and beautifully constructed, with a cute loft area. My favorite aspects of the lodge were the outdoor private hot tubs, which are free to use and have spectacular views of the lake. Super relaxing. The lodge has arranged plants and rocks so that you feel like you're completely alone outside, at one with nature, while soaking in the hot water. I also really appreciated the friendly and social vibe among the clientele, which was encouraged by the managers through the way that they positioned the furniture. Before and after dinner, there were common areas where guests could get to know each other over wine and snacks. The service was great. We especially appreciated Michelle from South Africa. The staff was also helpful in giving advice about our drive to Milford Sound. The area around the lodge isn't the kind of place where you could easily go exploring on you own without a car. But, except for our day trip to Milford Sound, there was no reason to leave this gorgeous sanctuary.
