Our room had a view of the lake and the lake is beautiful, particularly in the early morning. The room was very well furnished with some antique furniture and a huge bed.

Reception helped us arrange the dark skies tour. Reception also supplied us with the kitchen supplies.

Theres a nice lawn with a lake view at the back of the motel rooms which is a lovely spot to finish the day with a good book and cold drink. Otherwise, we had a friendly welcome on our arrival, a nice walk along the lake and everything we could want from a motel room.

Room was huge, comfortable and affordable with free parking. Everything I needed and loved being right beside the lake, whilst also convenient for Mt Cook National Park, Lake Tekapo and restaurants in town. It felt very safe, relaxed and family friendly.

Lake Ruataniwha Holiday Park was a great choice for our family. The kids had a blast playing in the playground with other kids and exploring the park grounds and the lake. We were surprised by the Rosehip cottage in the best way. The cottage is very spacious with two separate bedrooms, a generous size bathroom and the washing machine was very convenient. We’d definitely stay again and recommend to anyone.

Quirky and fun place. The room was nice. Kitchen facilities were a little lacking but overall good. Bathroom was nice and clean.

We stayed in one of the cubes and it was perfect for the three of us (2 kids, 1 adult). Very close to the kitchen and bathrooms. The only thing I would add is a bigger fridge in the kitchen!
