I can absolutely recommend this place..it was delightful and very reasonably priced, possibly because it is not on the waterfront, but the cabin and service well and truly makes up for it's less than prime position. Could have stayed there for much longer.

Good hotel for an overnight stay There is everything you need for cooking. Very friendly staff. Of the minuses, I would note the proximity to the road (noisy at night), There is a grill outside, but it is dirty and impossible to cook on.

Clean and comfortable and at a good location. Outdoor area is super spacious with enough space to comfortably park two large cars. Ray was kind and helpful. A couple of issues has to be highlighted. It was advertised on a website that rhymes with cooking. The listing there said 2 bathrooms. However, neither bathroom has a sit down toilet. Of the two bathrooms, only one has a sink to brush your teeth and it doesn’t have a mirror above it. The mirror is behind and to the side. The property can house up to 8 guests in 3 comfortable bedrooms but there is only ONE sit down toilet in a separate room and really cold in winter. If you have to go at night, probably need to wear a jacket. Ray said that the website doesn’t allow him to accurately reflect the facilities. That’s really unfortunate and it could prove to be a real uncomfortable surprise if a large group turns up at this particular unit.

Cozy, comfortable and clean. The cottage was a great base for our Milford Sound tour; it wasn't fancy but it had everything we needed. It was a short walk into town to go out to eat or take a walk to the lake. We ended up taking the Cruise Milford tour out of Te Anau (which left from the Birchwood Cottages) and we were happy with the choice. We're not really tour bus people and we were a little hesitant about the bus tour portion but it turned out to be on a small bus/large van that didn't feel crowded, but felt personal and informative with time enough for short walks including the Foreshore Walk at Milford Sound.

Our compact but perfectly formed one bedroom cottage met our every need. Great space and great location. Cosy and comfortable. And a huge thank you to Ray who went above and beyond in assisting us with an unexpected medical issue. FYI Fiordland Tours runs from here and, if you stay at the cottages, there's a discount for the tour!
Response from Property: Tank you for your wonderful review. You were a pleasure to host, and we hope to see you back here another time. Regards Ray

We stayed at Birchwood on our way out of Milford Sound. Located just a few minutes from the town center, it has great access just off the main Milford road. The cottage was clean, spacious, and comfortable and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this quiet little town. Highly recommended to all other travelers.
Response from Property: Thank you for your review. We are stoked you found our cottages to be convenient, and comfortable. We would love to host you again in future.
