If you are after a family size house with plenty of room, views to die for, a one minute walk to the lake(if you walk slow) and close proximity to everything Queenstown and surrounds have to offer this is the house for you. The hosts were fantastic, extremely easy to deal with and readily available to help with everything. We would highly recommend this house and hosts to anyone planning a Queenstown trip.
