Brand new luxury off-grid cabin in absolute wilderness nestled on the edge of a private lake fed by a pristine mountain stream - 3 minutes drive from Franz Josef Glacier village. Enjoy 30 acres of private land to roam complete with river access. Sensational views of snow-capped mountains, the lake, glacier, Fritz Falls & rainforest. Super King bed, sunsets, outdoor stone bath, cedar barrel sauna with panoramic window & nature's swimming pool on your doorstep. Experience luxury amidst nature. Welcome to our luxury off-the-grid eco-cabin, a secluded paradise nestled in the heart of the Southern Alps on the West Coast of New Zealand. Here you'll have the best of both worlds - complete tranquility yet only a 3-minute drive from vibrant Franz Josef Glacier township where a plethora of tourist attractions, hikes, tours, luxury spa, cafes, bars and restaurants await. Our property spans 30 acres of natural wilderness with the cabin itself perched on the edge of a private lake fed by a pristine mountain stream. A haven of luxury, comfort and ultimate unwinding. Enjoy panoramic views of snow-capped mountains, the glacier, the majestic Fritz waterfall, sensational sunsets and lush rainforest from every aspect of the cabin which features large picture frame windows. Imagine waking up each morning with fresh coffee in hand as you take in the mirror reflections of nature's grandeur and the fresh mountain air that surrounds you. The lake is swimmable in summer or for a cold plunge after having a sauna. As night falls, the gentle sound of the mountain stream that feeds the lake will lull you to sleep. Inside, the cabin is tastefully decorated with brass fittings, a stone-carved basin, stone benchtops and a fully tiled bathroom. A brand-new leather lounge suite perfectly positioned to enjoy the West Coast's sensational sunsets and mirror lake reflections through the huge picture frame window. In the colder months, cozy up beside the roaring fire. A full stock of wood and fire starting materials will be provided and both fires will be set for you ready to light prior to your arrival. The cabin features full ranch sliders from both the living space and the bedroom, which houses a superior super king bed adorned with quality organic linen. These open onto a large covered deck, where an oversized outdoor stone bath awaits on the lake's edge. For relaxation, sink into the oversized outdoor bean bags, soak away worries in the outdoor bath and let life stresses melt away in our wood-fired cedar barrel sauna with a panoramic fisheye window. From here, you can soak in the stunning views across the lake, sunsets, and mountains. The cabin has a full kitchen, however, as we rely 100% on solar energy (the sun) for power - you do need to be conscious of power use when it is raining or overcast. We ask that you do not use the oven for cooking and just use the gas stove hob for cooking. If it is really sunny weather and good forecast the oven may be able to be used upon request (you can check in with us and we will check the power levels for you). Immerse yourself in nature. Our cabin promises a stay like no other, where every day is a postcard-perfect experience - even on a stormy day it is truly magical. We look forward to welcoming you to your wilderness retreat.
