Kick back and relax in the heart of The Cairns Alpine Resort in understated style with your own Lodge Just a stone’s throw from the lake and Tekapo township and under the world’s best night sky, The Cairns huts are close enough to walk and bike everywhere but secluded enough from the crowds to be your own sanctuary. Built with an aesthetic inspired by the classic Mackenzie region musterers hut, and with the amenities you’d expect of a modern home, The Cairns Alpine Lodges give you the best of both worlds for your ultimate Tekapo experience. All huts are fitted out with a modern open-plan kitchen, a warm fireplace and heat pump, bathrooms with bathtub, a large verandah, and sleeping for five guests across two comfortable rooms. The interiors feature copious amounts of local timber and the lodges are built to let in large amounts of natural light, making them feel airy and spacious, while remaining cozy and homely at the same time, you’ll have the best seat in town to take in the southern night sky. The lodges are carefully positioned together to ensure a perfect mix of community and privacy.
