We stayed for one night before before walking the Kepler great walk. We were given unit 20 which is a studio apartment which has recently been renovated. It was perfect. It was new, modern, comfortable beds, lovely sheets, good size, modern bathroom with good shower and cooking facilities of a motel unit should we have needed it. The owners were very nice as was their black labrador Bobbie. We have travelled the world but lock down has kept us local. We are a little fussy and found Red Tussock faultless.

Room tip: Unit 20 on the upstairs end
Date of stay: March 2022

We had a night either side of our Milford track holiday at Red Tussock and it’s a great base for that trip. The DOC office is across the rd so handy for shuttle drop off/pick up and to get hut passes and info. A lovely <10min lakefront stroll to the shops/food outlets. Clean, friendly, convenient place to stay.

Te Anau is an amazing place to stay and the Red Tussock Motel is in a great location. Welcoming hosts makes a difference to your stay and Paul was great. The room was amazingly spacious and modern. Huge bed and tastefully decorated. Highly recommend them for your next stay.
