Ideal vacation rental for couples
Spruce Hus is the perfect place for an extended stay if you want a balance of scenery, outdoor activity and easy access to town without the hassle of getting caught in local rush hours. John and Anita were perfect hosts and provided thorough and accurate information re the property and local sights, activities and dining options.

Home from home for 2
Spruce Hus was spotlessly clean, comfortable and we'll stocked with everything we needed for a 7 nights stay. Our hosts were extremely helpful, friendly and welcoming without being at all intrusive. Extensive very welcome breakfast supplies were provided. We enjoyed staying in this area, good for walks, the water taxi to town and just a few kilometers to the centre of Queenstown. We enjoyed the calmer suburban atmosphere in this location. A wonderful restful holiday, highly recommend Spruce Hus and thank you again to our lovely hosts.

Cozy space with a 20 minute drive from downtown Queenstown
We very much enjoyed our stay! The place was clean and included all of the basics plus a nice surprise of baked goods from the owners. There were enough dishes to cook up a meal for 2 people. We used the in unit clothes washer and dryer (the dryer was located in the garage which was about a 10 second walk from the front door). The neighborhood was high-end with many modern houses and had some construction happening during the day. A 2 minute walk toward the back of the property led to the lake shore with beautiful views and a walking path that met up with the trail around Jack's Point Golf course. The house is a 20 to 30 minute drive into Queenstown, depending on traffic, and about 10 minutes from the airport.

Great place to stay
Everything was lovely, quiet and private - a home away from home. Full kitchen facilities meant we were able to cook meals easily. Thanks for the fruit, cake and trail mix. Didn't need to do laundry, but terrific that washing and drying was available.

Incredible stay!!!
What a beautiful home to stay in, we had everything we needed even some beautiful homemade banana loaf and ginger marmalade for my morning toast. Our hosts were so lovely and kind, cleaning up and refreshing the place half way through our stay. We enjoyed most our time in this lovely location since it was so cold outside and so warm inside, all we wanted to do was snuggle up and watch tv with a home-cooked meal. Mountain view is actually something else! Waking up in the morning with a cup of tea, looking at that view- WOOOOW! Highly recommend!!!
