Loved our stay in the cottage. Very comfortable and well equipped. We came to the Queenstown area to cycle the trails and the bonus was direct access to the Twin Rivers Trail right next to the cottages.

Very beautiful property with everything that you ever need. Fantastic view of the Queenstown Airport is a must-stay for aviation geeks. Even if you are not, be prepared to be stunned by the beautiful sunset.

Great place with an amazing view - almost worth coming here just for the view. Nice and quiet area, far better than being in the overly touristy centre of Queenstown itself. Easy access to the airport and to a shopping area that includes a Woolworths. You do need to know that it's right under the flight path for the airport. The first flights are at 7am and the last around 9pm. They were never a problem though.

Everything was great, but the cottage heating system did not work the entire time we were there. Called as asked for assistance and someone came and fiddle with the system for a while, but couldn't get the heat to work so he left and referred us to the user manual which did no good. Otherwise, highly recommended (but not when it's cold outside.)

The cottage was perfect for what we required. Once cleaned it was great. The cleaner's do a great job. Having use of a good washing machine and dryer was fantastic. Shower was brilliant. Can't fault this cottage and we were able to email anything we felt needed to be addressed. Kitchen had ample clean cooking facilities, although a non-stick fry pan should be provided. Trying to clean the one provided was a mission. Highly recommended 👌

Pretty and comfortable. Only one concern is that the cleaning staff were walking in front of our room which has large windows and this reduced our privacy at that time.

This place was super nice with all modern amenities, even air conditioning! AIR CONDITIONING!! The only concern for staying here would be that its near an airport. That wasn't an issue for the wife and I because we love planes, but the sound could be a turn off for others. Otherwise, this place is super comfortable and we stayed there multiple nights and felt right at home. This place has beautiful views and was very spacious. The shower was one of the best I had the pleasure of using in our twelve day honeymoon, staying in a new place almost every night. Stay here if you are in the area, you won't regret it!
