10/10 Exceptional

This place was so nice. The view over the mountain right behind was great, as well as being close to Fox glacier, whether to go for a hike close by, or get a great viewpoint over it. The whole area is so peaceful. The person who takes care of the place was also really friendly, and this makes the difference!!
