A stop on a 4 week tour of south island
Read the property description and it sums it up really well. The property is in a fantastic location and if you are lucky like us and have good weather sitting outside on the terrace is great. Sitting inside is great too. The bbq was out of gas so we did not use it but the kitchen was great. Look closely and it needs some care but look at the view and it is all good.

What an amazing place
Just the place we needed for our adult family trip to Queenstown. The home was spacious and comfortable for the 6 of us while being a short distance from town. The house had everything we needed for the weekend and the views and sunsets are simply stunning. Would definitely come back.

Exceptional
The view from the deck is incredible. You could stay there all day just starring into the distance. The houses accommodated the 5 of us perfectly. The parking of the car was a little difficult down the steep driveway but apart from this it was brilliant

The View!
The view was absolutely amazing! Like the description says, it is an older house and the driveway is a bit tricky, but because we knew that ahead of time (from the description and an email from the property manager) we knew what we booked and the house worked perfectly for our group.

Central with great views and everything we needed. Communication with the host was very difficult as she did not reply to messages.

Magnificent views
The property has the best views of the lake and surrounding mountains. There was plenty of room and kept us warm in the colder temperature. It is an older property that needs some maintenance and a deep clean. The driveway is very tricky to navigate as per the description, but we couldn’t find anywhere else to park.

Fantastic.
We had a fantastic stay here. The house itself was excellent. It was well equipped with heating for the cold weather (heaters in every bedroom, heated blankets, heat pump in the living room and a fireplace). The house was in a great location, you could walk into town within 20mins along a path accessible from the house that runs around the river or it is a short drive into town. I hope to come back again!
