Great views from the hot tub! The cottages are in a beautiful setting and are super clean and well-kept. The art by NZ artists adds to the ambiance as does some classic pieces of furniture. Sitting in the hot tub you get great views of Lake Hayes. It is 2min onto the walking trail around the...

My favorite Queenstown accommodation The Cottages has an amazing view. I could just sit by the window all day. Very relaxing. I love it is a little bit further away from crowded Queenstown tourist area but not far if you want to go to the town or Arrowtown for good food. Perfect for families...

The cottages are very spacious, beautifully designed, and decorated. They are in a wonderful location overlooking Lake Hayes, close to both Arrowtown and Queenstown. I would recommend the cottages for a long weekend.
