Mitzi & Dan
Nearly 150 years old, this is a special place, offering good old fashion hospitality in a quaint charming location. We help travellers by providing a homely base to experience the best of the region so that they unwind and make amazing memories.
100% KIWI owned and operated, small family run business. We are a married couple with 2 children, and have been working in hospitality all our lives. When we are not hosting guests we also love to travel and explore the world, to date we have visited over 50 countries! Come stay and let us showcase our region like a local.
The main thing our guests love is the quiet location, with the Shotover river, walking and cycling tracks right on our doorstep. Yet we are still only 5 minutes drive from Queenstown Airport.
