About this house rental

Summary

This is a classic Kiwi holiday home — spacious, comfortable, and perfect for slowing down together. Enjoy sweeping views of Lake Wakatipu and the surrounding mountains, with mornings spent over a cuppa and evenings watching the light fade over the lake.



Just a relaxed 20-minute walk to town, it’s close to everything yet still feels like a true family getaway.



The Space

This is a two-storey family holiday home with classic bach character and a relaxed, homely feel. It’s a place to slow down and spend time together, with big lake and mountain views. Queenstown Gardens and the town centre are both within walking distance.



Layout: The house is over two levels. One bedroom is on the lower level, and the other three bedrooms are upstairs, reached by an internal staircase.

Bedrooms: Four bedrooms, two with lake and mountain views.

Bathrooms: Two bathrooms, both with walk-in showers.

Living areas: A cosy open-plan living area with a fireplace and heat pump for cooler evenings.

Kitchen: A well-stocked family kitchen with fridge/freezer, oven, cooktop, dishwasher, microwave and coffee machine.

Balcony: The deck has four chairs and looks out over the lake. On the entrance side of the house there is an outdoor table with six chairs and a yard.



Standard configuration:

Bedroom 1: Queen (upstairs)

Bedroom 2: Queen (upstairs)

Bedroom 3: Two single beds (upstairs)

Bedroom 4: Queen (ground floor)



Guest Access

The Neighbourhood

Bask in endless sunshine while soaking in panoramic vistas of the serene lake and majestic mountains. Plus, enjoy the added convenience of being within easy walking distance to town.



Getting Around

Distance from nearest supermarket: FreshChoice Queenstown, 64 Gorge Road — 2.0 km

Other Things to Note / Good to Know

Stairs: internal and external: External stairs from driveway; internal staircase to second level

Water: Runs on a hot water cylinder (2 tanks here each 180L) with a set amount, so larger groups should space out showers. If the hot water runs out, please allow 3–4 hours for the tank to reheat

Power: Running too many appliances at once may trip the power

Fire alarm: Sensitive, so please take care when cooking and have the extraction fan turned on

Extra linen and a mid-stay clean are available for a fee.

Baby Bundle (portacot, high chair, baby bath) is available on request for NZD $50.



Please make all requests at least 3 days before arrival — later requests incur an additional NZD $10 call-out fee.



The first round of amenities is complimentary. If you're staying more than 5 days, we'd recommend picking up extra during your stay.

The views from the living area are absolutely amazing. The location is very convenient to town, and the property is maintained impeccably, is perfectly clean and in great shape. The only thing we noted is that the twin beds in one bedroom are in need of being replaced and the kitchen is a bit dated, but still perfectly clean and very usable. We were extremely happy with this property and would come back again in a heartbeat.
