Possum Lodge

Take it easy at our scenic lakeside lodge. Our space is hidden away in the wee slice of paradise where the Waiau River meets Lake Manapouri. It's a wonderland for nature and wilderness lovers, nestled into a breathtaking Beech forest, and right on the edge of Fiordland National Park. Beautiful birds fill the trees above. Fantastic fish fill the river and lake below. Humble and historical, the accomodation is basic and the property has been a campground for over 100 years.

Both the lake and river are just a stone's throw away. Everything in the Manapouri Township is very walkable and bikeable. Take a 5-minute stroll down the river, under the Beech tree canopy, and you will find RealNZ's Doubtful Sound terminal. We can highly recommend taking a trip from there.

The main Manapouri beach is a 5-10 minutes walk around the lake and the local bar, cafe, restaurant, and shop are a 3-minute walk up the track.

The mighty Kepler Track is a short drive, and Te Anau too.

The maximum stay is 31 days.
Check in between 2pm to 9pm, check out until 10am.
