Darren's place is Amazing! It's a new house, nicely designed and sparkly clean. Darren was a great host, he greeted us as we arrived, was quick to answer and help with anything we needed, and even went as far as to help us find a babysitter!! There's nothing to do in walking distance, but it's only ~8 minutes drive to Wanaka which is lovely. We stayed for 4 nights and enjoyed our stay very much. We definitely recommend!
