A secluded comfortable experience The lodge here is one dwelling with five separate rooms and a very spacious and welcoming kitchen area and lounge downstairs. The host is terrific It’s reasonably priced and ideally situated for skiers, hikers and those wanting to experience Queenstown and Arrowtown. It is a little tired in some respect such as warn carpets and drapes not quite hanging as they should but to counter that, breakfast supplies in the kitchen are generous. This place would be ideal for a number of friends or a whole family wanting to get together for an event such as a reunion.

Fine ☺ Very grand looking manor style house, extremely comfortable bed, spacious with well appointed interior. Plenty of parking! ☹ Needed some R&M with chipped paint, worn carpet and minor items needed some TLC that caught the eye

Quiet location and easy parking We stayed here for 3 nights during our tour of New Zealand. Quiet location with plenty of parking, about twenty /twenty five minutes from Queenstown Centre. A great house for a large party of guests. There are 5 rooms and lots of great communal areas, so great for a family reunion. Easy to use, convenient laundry facilities. If you are just looking for one room for a couple or a solo visit, it’s not the best as guests don’t stopover for long, so there’s a high turnover and no time to get to know anyone.

We had a wonderful stay at Queenstown Country Lodge and it worked perfectly for our large family of 15 people. The house is very spacious, with 6 bedrooms and plenty of common areas, making it comfortable for everyone to gather without feeling crowded.One thing we really appreciated was the location — about 20 minutes from Queenstown CBD. It’s close enough for easy access to town, yet far enough to enjoy a peaceful, quiet environment, which gave us a nice break from the busy tourist areas.The lodge is well-equipped with many facilities, making it ideal for big groups and extended stays. Overall, it felt like a true home away from home.The only minor downside is that the house could use some light maintenance, such as a broken door knob and a few window screens needing attention. That said, these were small issues and didn’t take away from our overall enjoyment of the stay.We would happily recommend Queenstown Country Lodge to large families or groups looking for comfort.

Świetnie położony dom - na przedmieściach Queenstown, wokół góry, cisza, spokój. Duży ogród, sporo sprzętu do grillowania i odpoczynku. Dom duży, czysty, przestronne pokoje i łazienki. Duży sklep w odległości kilku minut jazdy samochodem. Polecam.
