I was in Te Anau to do a few a few of the Great Walks so I used Red Tussock as a base for when I was in town. They stored my luggage for free while I was on the tracks and I was able to get early check in when I returned which I was very grateful for. I stayed in two types of rooms during my three stays. One room was in the newer building and was very modern. One room was in the older building. Both were spacious and comfortable and I would be happy to stay in either room again. Both of my rooms had a kitchen or kitchenette that were fully stocked with utensils and pots/pans etc. Loved that they provided real milk too. Staff were friendly from all my interactions. It is a 10ish min walk into the town centre which I enjoyed walking along the lake. Would definitely recommend staying at Red Tussock!
