About this property

The Cabin

Summary:

We’d love to welcome you to The Cabin. Our Cabin apartment offers luxury accommodation with spectacular views of The Remarkables and Lake Wakatipu. Nestled in the forest at the base of Ben Lomond, the charm of a stone cabin & log burning fireplace meets modern facilities in a panorama of natural beauty. Ideal for a couple wishing to enjoy the unique attractions of Queenstown or looking for a relaxing holiday.



The Space:

Facilities – The Cabin is a self-contained one bedroom, one bathroom apartment with full kitchen, and open plan lounge area offering luxury accommodation in a beautiful relaxing setting.



Stay warm and cozy in front of the log-burning fireplace or turn on the heat pump/air conditioner for instant warmth. The full kitchen includes fridge, dishwasher, oven, gas hob, microwave and coffee machine. The open plan lounge includes a comfy sofa, dining table for two and smart TV including Netflix and unlimited Wi-Fi.



The loft bedroom has high quality linen. Lay back and look at the stars through the roof top window or close the blind for complete privacy. The separate bathroom includes a washing machine and condenser dryer.



Step outside onto the private deck and enjoy a glass of wine by the fire pit as you soak up the views. Relax and unwind in the private oval cedar hot tub.



Location – The Cabin is nestled in the forest at the base of Ben Lomond. You’ll find it at the end of a private laneway in the local suburb of Fernhill, sharing a driveway with a private home. Just a short 9-minute drive into Queenstown and only 23-minute drive from the airport.



Guest Access:

Check in time is 3pm and check out time is 11am. This may be flexible depending on bookings.



Other Things to Note:

The Cabin shares the access with our private home. You will have your own car park in front of the cabin stairs. It's a completely separate apartment with private entrace and lock box entry. We have two friendly and well behaved German Shepherd dogs that you may see but will not have access to The Cabin.

A charming cabin with spectacular views! We were really impressed with this little gem. So many little inclusions added to make the stay feel superior. The cabin has everything you could need for a lovely stay and a lot of effort has gone into the decor. Close the cabin door and you're in your own little world. The wood fire added to the cosiness. Melanie is very quick answering messages. We would love to come back!

A Perfect Place to Unwind

Stayed in the cabin for a quick three days and thoroughly enjoyed it. The view is spectacular, easy access to Queenstown centre yet far enough away to be perfectly quiet.The cabin itself is very well appointed and provided a comfortable place to wind down after a day of exploring. Both of us enjoyed our stay and look forward to visiting again.

Wow! What a stay

We came for a long weekend getaway and our accommodation was everything it said it was and more. This place is fabulous and we highly recommend it to anyone wanting a romantic getaway or some time to simple relax and enjoy each others company. We can’t wait to come back and will certainly be telling everyone to book here when in Queenstown. Thank you for making our weekend so memorable.

So lucky to find this

This was the prefect spot for a couple to stay in Queenstown. Far enough outside the city to be quiet, close enough that it was a 5 minute drive. The views from the kitchen and deck are spectacular and has all the features for a comfortable, stress free stay.

The Perfect Queenstown Getaway

To put it simply, what you see is what you get! Cannot thank Melanie & Calvin enough for their hospitality + service, quick responses and amazing location/setup. My partner and I were there for 8 amazing nights and the view never ceased to amaze! Rain or shine, this Queenstown cabin is the perfect ideal location for a cozy retreat. Cannot wait to be back!
