Lake Stella 2 - Rock Wren
Summary:
Find your perfect spot at Lake Stella Mountain Retreat inside Mount Lyford Adventure Park. Situated at one of the best tiny homes perched on top of the North Canterbury mountains, complete with a mountain lake nestled among the mountain tundra and overlooking Amuri Basin. Where you can feel the natural elements while admiring the breathtaking views of South Island, NZ.
The Space:
Lake Stella Mountain Retreat 1 - Falcons Nest is located inside Mount Lyford Adventure Park on the South Island of New Zealand and is one of the best tiny house rentals near Amuri Basin, Kaikoura Beach, and Hanmer Springs Spa.
