  • Our stay in the cabin at Pinewoods exceeded expectations. Our cabin was spacious and comfortable, with a kitchenette. Proximity to Queenstown was great, only a 10-15 minute walk so we didn’t have to worry about parking. We’ll be back.

  • Love the their chalet apartment with the view of the mountains! Location is perfect too if you don’t mind walking a little bit to town. Lovely ladies in the reception as well. Shame we couldn’t stay longer!
