About this house rental
Come stay in our bright and spacious modern home located just 5 minutes from the town of Franz Josef in the heart of glacier country!
Take in the impeccable glacier country mountains and views of Lake Mapourika while lounging on the large deck or open the sliding doors and enjoy from the comfort of inside. This is a perfect 3 bedroom home away from home for family and friends.
To fully experience Glacier Country, you need to immerse yourself in the landscape. It is not until you make footprints on a high alpine snow field, journey deep into the towering rainforests, explore the blue ice caves of the glaciers, tackle a trout on a beautiful lake, jetboat up a glacial river, or contemplate the mountain reflections in Lake Matheson that you will truly encounter our wilderness.
Choose from Glacier Country adventures, including guided glacier walks, kayaking, kiwi encounters, quad biking, clay target shooting, off-road buggies, tandem skydiving and white-water rafting. There is also a range of scenic flights (helicopter or fixed wing, with or without snow landings), horse treks, hot pools, boat trips, kayaking and more. The diverse range of activities in and around Franz Josef is available all year round.
Make our beautiful home yours for your next holiday!
Extras: Cleaning (Required, NZ$40.00 per night); Linen (included);

10 / 10Outstanding·May 2026
This property was gorgeous! We only stayed one night and wished we were staying longer as the house was set up so nicely and it was beautiful. Also, communication and assistance from the host was amazing. When we return, we definitely would stay here again. Exceptional!

The house was clean and a good layout for the 6 of us.
10 / 10Outstanding·Feb 2026
Place was just right for the three of us. Very convenient to town, kitchen well equipped, nice and quiet at night, was able to open the windows and survive the night under super thick bed clothes fit for artic winters as are most places these days
6 / 10Average·Mar 2025
The property manager was totally unresponsive. Multiple attempts to communicate through Brbo and email went unresponsive. We had some issues with the stove, lack of kitchen supplies, minimal outside furniture, not very comfortable common spaces. Only positive features are the open kitchen and mountain view.
