Tussock Cottage

Forty metres above the Frankton arm of Lake Wakatipu, Tussock Cottage at 48 Rutherford Road delivers an intimate stay rated 9.8 across 96 guest reviews — one of Queenstown's highest scores for a self-contained property.

The cottage sits within the tussock grassland belt characteristic of the Remarkables foothills, placing guests outside the crowded lakefront precinct while keeping Queenstown town centre roughly ten minutes by car. Frankton's grocery stores and the Queenstown Events Centre are closer still.

Queenstown Airport sits under five kilometres from Rutherford Road — a practical detail for guests arriving late or departing early without the congestion of the central hotel strip.
