Great Relaxation Spot
Such a great place to relax and chillout for a week. Great views across the lake and to the mountains, particularly from the spa which was such a treat. It was great having the wood fire which we used a couple of times. Loved that it was close to Queenstown and far from the maddening tourists. Loved the fresh herbs to cook with. Definitely recommend to all and we have booked in again for 2025.

Jason has an incredible cottage just outside of Queenstown. It was clean and inviting with a wood burning fire for the cold days and a gorgeous deck for the sunny days. Perfect for two couples!

Views to die for and so clean
This is a property on the more expensive end but when we arrived we really felt like it was value for money. The views are stunning and the property is very nicely decorated with quality linens and fittings. Treats on arrival were also a lovely touch. Thanks so much for sharing this fabulous piece of Queenstown with us. Easy drive to Qtown for dinners and enjoyed a sunrise at Moke Lake due to close location. 5 stars.

We've been staying in the cottage for a week, and enjoyed every day! Has great views from the 'living room' and also from the main bedroom. Location is great too, far away from the hustle-bustle in Queenstown but close enough to be able to visit it in just a short ~10 mins drive. Would stay there again. Absolutely!

Unbelievable beautiful and peaceful
Jason's place is like a little pocket of heaven. Not far out of Queenstown with lots of peace and quiet. Stunning view from porch and from the huge upstairs window. Lovely in the hot tub in the evening. With a view over the garden to the lake... Snow capped mountains in the distance. Check in was super easy. Would love to stay there again. Thank you !

Cozy Cottage Hideaway
A home away from home. A wonderful reprieve from the hustle and bustle of Queenstown yet only 10 minutes down the road. The best of both worlds. When not relaxing in the hot tub, reading by the fire, or enjoying the every changing landscape, we enjoyed some much needed home cooking prepared in the well equipped kitchen. We really appreciated the welcome goodies - thank you.

Perfect Getaway
A very good American friend of mine told me when he ever finds a wonderful place he never divulges to anyone where it is as next time you go it’s full of Americans!! Well I’m telling everyone because it should be shared by everyone. Lovely fireplace, superb beds, lovely views and incredible private. Cooked dinner on the BBQ and enjoyed the wine on the super great chairs. Go you won’t be disappointed and the special welcome message and wonderful gifts were a real treat. Thanks you Jason & Scott for sharing your beautiful home.

Perfect get away 🧖‍♀️🏡🍾
I am so happy I chose this place for celebrating my 30th with few of my girlfriends. Place was very tidy. We found little notice from owner on the glass front door what was very cute. As a compliment was great to get a bottle of Procecco, chocolate Lint and some bread! Place had 2 beds (bedroom upstairs) and bed downstairs near staircase (beautiful spot). Bathroom was pretty big, no bath but good shower. We appreciate amazing outdoor spot with table on the deck with a view on the lake. Very important to read all information in book on the table in the kitchen as it says all instructions and how to use and clean spa (so easy). It was very good place for get away. Thanks for owners to putting love into it 👍

Last few nights in NZ
We booked this property for our last few nights in South Island NZ. Wanted something out of town and on way to Glenorchy. This cottage ticked every box we wanted. Immediately felt like a home away from home. Absolutely everything you could possibly need. Amazing views. Quiet location. Super cute and comfy cottage. Lovely outdoor spa with views. Property exactly as per website. Super comfy bed too!! Would love to have had more days there.
