Great space, very well equipped, gorgeous location opposite the lake. Definitely recommend for a large group wanting a base in Wānaka. Warm and clean. Check in was delayed due to cleaner not being finished, but just killed a couple of extra hours in wanaka. Note paddle boards not available over winter

Beautiful home in an awesome location

We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Wanaka. The home is in a great spot and very close to the lake and local shops are an easy walk away. The house is well maintained and was great for the 9 of us. The home is very warm inside and a great layout for large groups. The host was very responsive and helped us with any questions we had.

Family stay

We had an absolutely wonderful stay. A group of 6 adults with children all under 4. The property was very clean, comfortable and had everything we needed, and more! Emily was extremely easy to communicate with and helpful. We were sad to leave and could easily have stayed longer. Definitely recommend!

Wonderful spacious home in a great location

Our group consisting of four couples enjoyed three nights in this lovely spacious home which was located opposite the lake within easy walking distance to town. We appreciated the welcome hamper and the well stocked kitchen as well as the comfortable beds and the three lovely bathrooms. The home is clearly much loved by the family who owns it and provided us with the perfect base to enjoy the end of our holiday. Many thanks to Emily and her family for our great stay.

We really enjoyed our weekend stay to celebrate a family big birthday. The house was bright and attractive, clean and warm, and had excellent bedrooms and bathrooms for our family, as well as great living spaces for different ages to get together, especially when extra family popped in to celebrate with us. The location was perfect for a lake front walk or time with the kids at the playground. The kids loved the table tennis in the garage.We had one glitch - the fridge had been turned off at the wall and although we turned on the switch, the freezer took particularly long to freeze food, so our ice cream etc was still runny when we needed it later in the evening. Emily was very helpful when we made contact and fortunately everything was working well by the morning. Many thanks for a lovely stay.
