“Great way to stay at Fox Glacier”
Cosy, good fit out cabins that are well located & managed by very friendly staff; at the price point, it is great value with comfortable beds, good kitchen space and warm. Highly recommend the night time glow worm tour conducted by the site manager if it is running.
