Craig was awesome! As soon as we pulled up in the shuttle from the airport, he came out to greet us, and welcomed us onto his deck to take in the breathtaking view of Queenstown and Lake Wakatipu. It was stunning! The room we rented was just as described; basic, but perfect for our needs. The small refrigerator was useful for storing a couple of beers, leftovers, some breakfast foods, and milk for our coffee/tea. The rental is on a quiet, residential street. It was nice to be able to come home in the evening, enjoy the view, and know you aren't going to be kept up by street noise or people wandering home from the bar at 2am. The 'fitness inspiring hill' you need to scale isn't as bad as you might think...we even came to welcome it after the many vacation indulgences!
