Kinloch Wilderness Retreat
4.0 star property
8.2 out of 10, Very Good, (104)
"Incredible location; about 30 min from Glenorchy but a small community in its own right, quaint, with spectacular lake views. The fact that they have a restaurant, cafe, hot tub, and outdoor activities available there/nearby makes it feel like a bit of a haven. Easy access to Routeburn Track and High Country Horses, along with several other tracks; plenty to do outdoors. The accommodation was clean, comfortable, simple (I was in the budget twin). They clearly care about eco-friendly habits and...

The Headwaters Eco Lodge
5.0 star property
9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (21)
"Very expensive for the fact that you had a timed shower - 8 minutes. Smacks of why water restrictions given proximity to lake. Question - do locals have timed showers? Not sure re use of compost toilets given that septic system for whole site with recycled water system could have been effective. Food was great. Alan "

Glenorchy Lake House
4.5 star property
9.0 out of 10, Wonderful, (15)
"I could put up photos of the amazing view of Glenorchy and the surrounds but chances are that you've already seen them and are now looking for a place to stay. The Lake House is comfortable and situated very close to the lake. This is both a good thing and a bad thing. Good because it's close to walk and get a better view down the lake or up towards the mountains where sections of LoTR was filmed. Bad because there are sand flies which will happily feast upon your bare skin. Make sure you wear...

Glenorchy Lake House
Unique Modern Log Home - Stunning Mountain Views, Designed for Comfort
9.6 out of 10, Exceptional, (76)
"This was a perfect place to have my fathers 90th birthday with family. The Log house was very spacious for additional visiting family members, very warm and clean with a great outdoor area for the great grandchildren to play. The only negative part of our stay was that one of the bottom bedrooms double bed was not suitable for two people to sleep in and would benefit greatly with a mattress upgrade."
