“Undeatable location and view, with comfort and amenities”
Location and view are unbeatable. A very short flat walk into town; directly across to lakeside park; and 50m to public bus stop to several locations incl to and from airport and remarkable shops. Also can catch bus to arrowtown and lake eyres from town. Being so close to everything saved time and money on car hire. (Hired car for one day only - there is parking). Stunning view; seating arranged to make most of this. Very good amenities with extras like small bbq, Sandwich grill, coffee pod machine etc . Comfortable bedding and having two nice bathrooms with showers upstairs is handy.

“Great location with super easy parking. Older art-deco style but lovely none the less. Loved it!”
The location was perfect. Short easy walk along the waterfront to restaurants and other attractions. I loved how easy it was to park out front. The view from the lounge room was so beautiful. We stayed at four holiday venues around NZ this holiday and Lodges 1 was my teenage daughters favourite. She loved the retro feel of the place. We all loved the quaint cottage feel.

“A beautiful holiday home”
It was located in the heart of Queenstown in front of the beautiful Lake Wakatipu. The lakefront views were stunning. The home was very comfortable and had all the conveniences to cook and make ourselves at home. The staff were helpful and contactable throughout the booking and stay.

“Cozy lodge close to town center”
The location is excellent, just a Couple of minutes walking to all restaurants. My parents love to sit on the couches in front of the window facing the spectacular Lake Wakatipu.
