Canopy Camping Escapes | The Yards Karāpiro

This beautifully decorated tiny home features a fully equipped kitchen, cosy bedroom with an ensuite bathroom and space to simply chill. But the real luxury lies outside—soak in the outdoor bath under the stars, unwind in the Panorama Sauna, or gather around the outdoor fire to toast marshmallows. Wander the property’s walkways alongside tranquil ponds, climb to the top for sunrise views, or relax on the large front deck with your morning coffee. Challenge friends to kubb (a lawn game) or corn hole, fire up the Weber BBQ, and let the peace and quiet work its magic. Just a five-minute walk from Lake Karāpiro and less than ten minutes' drive from Cambridge, you’re perfectly positioned to explore—or stay put and soak in the serenity.
