Location
Goldfields Gem gives you quick access to Queenstown’s attractions without the bustle of the town centre. Goldfields Heights is a quiet residential suburb with an elevated position, which is exactly why the views are so good. It is conveniently located between Queenstown and Queenstown International Airport, and it is a great base for ski days and outdoor adventures. A car is recommended to make getting around easy.

Drive times
- Queenstown Airport (ZQN): around 10 minutes
- Queenstown Gardens: around 10 minutes

For ski days, Coronet Peak is around a 30 minute drive, The Remarkables is around a 45 minute drive, and Cardrona is around 1 hour 20 minutes.

Secure gear storage
If you are bringing outdoor gear, the property includes a secure, lockable storage shed that is ideal for skis and bikes. It can fit up to four bikes and multiple sets of skis, so your gear is protected and ready to go.

A tour of the house
As you enter the home via stairs, you will find the heart of the home on the main level. The home is split across two levels.

The combined living and dining area is likely where you will spend much of your time, with those panoramic lake and mountain views as the backdrop. There is a heat pump to keep you warm during winter evenings, and it also provides cooling in summer.

Settle in with the smart TV and Freeview. If you feel like a quiet night in, there are board games on hand for relaxed evenings. When the weather is kind, step out onto the deck and enjoy the view with a coffee in the morning or a wine in the evening.

Next to the living room is the kitchen, which is fully equipped for cooking at home. It includes an oven, gas hob, microwave, toaster, fridge, dishwasher, and a French press for that important morning coffee. You are welcome to help yourself to tea and coffee, along with a starter set of pantry basics for simple meals.

The master bedroom on the main level has a comfortable queen bed, its own heating, and an ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower. There is also a separate toilet downstairs for added convenience.

Upstairs you will find two more bedrooms. One has a queen bed. The other can be set up as a king bed or two singles, depending on what your group needs. Please tell us your preference when you book so we can have it ready for your arrival.

These upstairs rooms share a bathroom. Both bedrooms also have heating/cooling via heat pumps, so you stay comfortable year-round.

For longer stays and outdoor trips, the house includes a laundry with a washing machine and dryer, which makes it easy to keep gear and clothing fresh during your visit.

Onsite, there is free parking for two cars and unlimited Wi-Fi for all your devices.

Travelling with children
For families travelling with little ones, a high chair and portacot are available free of charge. Please let us know when you book so we can have them set up.

Local tip: Sherwood is about a 15 minute walk away via a shortcut and is a local favourite for coffee, brunch or dinner.

Goldfields Gem is set up for comfort, views, and easy access to everything Queenstown offers. We look forward to hosting you.

    Amazing place to enjoy!! Overlooking the lake from inside or the deck was perfect. Have already recommended to many others and plan to stay again. Clean, wonderful and a must!

    Communication was excellent and accommodation was fine. Best views are from the bedrooms which you don’t spend a lot of time in. We found the kitchen amenities to be very low quality for what we paid for the stay. Very cheap cutlery and cooking pans really need replacing. I understand most of your guests may not use these items but I still feel it brings the overall quality down

    Property was clean and styled as if it was for sale, most everything needed for stay was provided , host even provided booklets of suggestions for Activites, restaurants and cafes .Books games and magazines in place for anyone bored .Views from all windows, house was heated all through .Only one thing I feel needed was something in the bathroom to place your clothes when having a shower.

    This property is a spacious 3 bedrooms 2 bath hillside place with stunning mountain views. It suited our adult children and granddaughter in the upstairs and us downstairs with our own bathrooms. The kitchen is modern and has most things. (I couldn’t find a roasting dish but used a glass dish). Q’town restaurants were about 4km away but we went to Farmers Arm in Frankton and it was only 2km away and good food. Easy to use heaters and air conditioners in rooms. There is a drying rack as well as dryer so that’s always great too. Would def stay again.

    I have now stayed at this property twice with friends and it’s a fantastic base for exploring Queenstown and surrounds. We always find an excuse to head back to the house to watch the evening light over the Remarkables.

    We stayed for five nights (two adult couples) and the lodging was perfect! Of the three places we’ve stayed in Queenstown in the past year, this was by far the best. Very clean, no heavy cleaning smells or pest product smells, comfortable beds, beautiful views, and a well stocked kitchen. Extra linens and blankets were provided which was greatly appreciated. Communication with the hosts was very clear and thoughtful. The check-in and check out procedure were very easy, too. The only thing to note is that guests have to climb a set of stairs to get into the house, so if someone has mobility issues, it wouldn’t be a good choice. The neighborhood is very quiet and parking was easy. We will absolutely stay again if we are lucky enough to return to Queenstown.
