On the shores of Lake Hawea, just 15 minutes from Wanaka, Lake Hawea Station is a BCorp working sheep and cattle farm committed to combating climate change and building biodiversity - they’ve set themselves the ambitious goal of 10 times carbon positivity in 10 years - and are well on the way to achieving this.
Lake Hawea Station’s inspirational owners have opened their property to guests with a choice of self-contained accommodation options for couples, friends and families – and, happily for guests of Lake Hawea Station, a commitment to sustainability does not compromise comfort.
The jewel in the crown is without doubt the contemporary three-bedroom glass-walled ‘Lake House’, complete with outdoor hot tub enjoying panoramic Lake Hawea and Southern Alps views. The Lake House also offers comfortable indoor and outdoor living and dining spaces, warmed by indoor and outdoor fires.


Like all Lake Hawea Station accommodation, the Lake House has a full kitchen, a carefully curated library and a collection of thoughtful touches to make guests feel at home. Breakfast provisions and BBQ dinner hampers can be provided and Wanaka’s world-class dining options are only a short drive away.
Resident guides invite guests to connect with nature through high-country outdoor adventures – on foot, e-bike or by 4WD drive. See regenerative farming in action or contribute to the property’s conservation efforts; try your hand at fishing or simply enjoy the unhurried pace and untamed surrounds. Queenstown adventures are also just 90 minutes from Lake Hawea Station.
Lake Hawea Station’s other accommodation options: the two-bedroom former shepherd’s hut ‘Packhorse Cottage’, the compact and cosy ‘Homespur Cottage’ and the ‘Little L’ tiny-house for two – can be booked separately or together for exclusive-use of the property.

many many many thanks!!!!!!"

Planning a 7 week trip is daunting enough without the complications of COVID cancellations, rebookings, and closures. Yet every connection, every transportation detail, every accommodation, every meal, everything was flawless.
We can't thank Southern Crossings enough for making this trip all, and more, than we had imagined. You allowed us to see the best of your countries: the people, the beauty, the culture. Five stars, a blue ribbon, and a gold medal to everyone at Southern Crossings!"
