The perfect location in Queenstown!
Beautifully appointed private residence with exceptional views of Lake Wakatipu and surrounding mountains. Easy walk to town and botanical gardens. It was nice to have off street parking too. The house was well equipped, we even enjoyed the gas fireplace on chilly mornings. Quiet neighborhood, excellent sleeping! A great home base for excursions to Wanaka, Glenorchy, and Milford Sound. We enjoyed our stay very much--I highly recommend this place!
