About this property

Stunning mountain & lake views -Sunny quiet home

A quiet peaceful location with all day sun and restful lake and mountain views. You can truly be in sunshine all day, summer and winter. Down a long driveway, this is a private quiet location with a flat lawn for children to play.
Newly renovated with a fully equipped kitchen, two lounge areas and an outdoor deck to relax on and take in the views. Two new bathrooms and a laundry.
Our home is suitable for a couple, families or a group of friends.

A quiet, relaxing and spacious home with stunning views.
Refer to my other listing next door 1539069 , providing the unique opportunity for two families to holiday together but independently.

The whole home is for guest use.

Situated just at the beginning of the Kelvin Heights Peninsula, this home is perfectly positioned for water views, trails and is very convenient to Queenstown central. Its quiet and private setting in full sun all year. You can walk a few minutes down to the beach for a swim and sunbathe or ride/ walk the network of trails to Queenstown and Arrowtown. Walk along the waterfront trail for less than 10 minutes to the Hilton Hotel for a range of restaurants, maybe a spa treatment or evening cocktails.
Take a water taxi across or drive 15 minutes to the buzz of Queenstown central or 20 minutes to the quaintness of historic Arrowtown. Convenient to the Airport and Remarkables Park shopping centre (3km). The cottage is minutes from both Queenstown and Jack Point golf course, close to Coronet Peak and even closer to Remarkables ski area. Queenstown area has an abundance of things to do and this crib provides a convenient and relaxing weekend or holiday base.

This is located in suburban area so a rental car is recommended. There is a bus service and a water taxi to Queenstown central but the service is not frequent.

Perfect spot for a family...beautiful location
We were thoroughly impressed with our stay here. Fiona was very helpful and easy to communicate with. The property is comfy & clean and location is perfect! In a quiet suburb, away from the hustle & bustle of downtown Queenstown but didn't feel too far away. The garden was stunning and so relaxing with exquisite views. Very clean and catered for all our needs, great kitchen! The only downside was the house got very hot by the afternoon so we needed to keep all blinds & curtains closed through the day but that didn't bother us because we were out exploring all day and it meant that we had great weather. So all in all I would definitely recommend this property and we would definitely stay again next time we're in Queenstown.

Peace away from the crowd
Our 9 days at the property were peaceful and the house has everything you need. It is well positioned as a base for towns such as Kingston, Glenorchy, Wanaka day trips or further afield. It was warm and comfortable.

Perfect long term stay
We were looking for somewhere comfortable for our family of 4 to live, work and home school from for a couple of months and we hit the jackpot with this house! With plenty of room for us all (you could easily have 6 or more people staying), it is light, bright and homey, with gorgeous interiors and a beautiful view. Cannot fault it. Fiona was a pleasure to deal with, going above and beyond to make sure we had a great stay. 10 out of 10!

Exceptional Home Rental
Our stay was exceptional from the moment we arrived until we unfortunately had to leave; and believe me teenage girls can be hard to impress but we were all overwhelmed by our experience staying here . The premises was exactly as described and depicted in the photos - the actual views no photo can do justice they are simply breathtaking. Fiona was fantastic to deal with - prompt replies, no issue a big deal, welcoming and appreciative of taking care of her beautiful home. The home is airy, sun filled, the linen of exceptional quality, the kitchen fully decked out, great location only a short drive from the airport, Queenstown, shopping centres, public transport, Frankton trial, The Remarkables drive, but at the same time so private and quiet. We could not fault our stay at this gorgeous home at all and we do our utmost to return one day again as we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves so much. Thank you Fiona for helping to make our adventure such a memorable one :)

Great homestay near Queenstown
Beautiful views and light filled house. We enjoyed eating out and cooking at home for our family. Queenstown restaurants and attractions close by. Local supermarket provided great fresh groceries. A barbecue would come in very handy.

Top shelf and highly recommended!
Beautifully updated, well appointed and very clean rental with phenomenal views of the lake and mountains! The owner’s pride of ownership shows from the level of thought provided to ensure guests enjoy their stay. A handy (and updated) guidance document was provided with recommendations for items ranging from dining to walking/running trails, as well as essential info on how to operate the Wi-Fi/TV/washer and dryer. The only minor negatives were that the mattresses were a bit firm for our liking, and that the steep and narrow driveway can make ingress/egress difficult depending on your vehicle type (we had an eight-passenger van). Still, we would highly recommend this rental!

Lovely home-away-from-home with beautiful lake views
Thank you Fi for opening your beautiful house to our family on our recent visit to Queenstown. You have been meticulous in your recent renovations of the home, as well as the provisions you have on hand for guests. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Kelvin Heights - beautiful location, great amenities, good communication and immaculate throughout.
