Guest Reviews:

- "This is the second time we have stayed at Oraka Lodge for a week of skiing and we loved it just as much second time around. It is a top quality place with great views, super warm inside with under floor heating and a great spa for soak after a day up the slopes. Everything was perfect." - "Excellent property with all the bells and whistles you would expect at this price point. The location offers a peaceful escape without being too far from places like grocery stores and coffee shops. The house is big enough to host a large group, with bedroom placements and number of bathrooms making it feel like each person/couple has their own space. Amenities in the house were fantastic, including the speaker system, spa, gas fireplace and automatic blinds. Heaps of different sitting areas meant we could enjoy the spectacular views from different perspectives. If you stay here, I recommend you take the short walk down to the waters edge and jetty. It’s truly peaceful. The house has clearly been designed to handle the colder weather with in-floor heating and outdoor heat bars, which allowed us to spend more time enjoying the location. Deb was also an awesome host, providing some useful tips during our stay and ensuring we felt comfortable interacting with the various features of the house. Bedding was also super comfortable with luxury linen. Overall we had an amazing stay and would highly recommend."

Guest Reviews:

- "An incredible home perfect for a large family. It has everything you could ask for in a holiday home, including the Remarkables behind and Lake Wakatipu in front. The Barn is an excellent additional space. My daughter and her young family enjoyed the quiet away from the main house. We rented three houses in Lakeside Estates for our large group of Americans, Colombians and Kiwis attending our Wedding and Family Reunion. The memories we generated during our time here will stay with us forever."

The humble lakehouse
House
Kingston

Unwind and enjoy the expansive lake and mountain views at our beloved humble lake house. Revel in silence, be comforted by gentle lapping water, or perhaps soothed by crashing waves. Take all this in from the comfort of a cosy couch, a sunchair on the deck, or on a blanket at the pebbly lake shore itself.

Enjoy comfort without fussiness in this deceptively spacious abode.

The space
With a king, queen, and two single beds (plus a sneaky couple of camp stretchers if you happen to have a surprise extra guest or two), everyone will have a space to call their own.

Your comfort is important to us, so we have invested in high-quality linen, soft towels, and extra duvets for those cooler nights.

Our spacious kitchen comes well equipped with everything you should need to make home-cooked meals, basics are provided (oil, salt, pepper, coffee, tea) as well as a few more besides. If you love food as much as my family, we highly recommend stocking up on all your favorites at a supermarket before heading to Kingston. The humble lake house has a fridge, freezer, and plenty of pantry space….so don’t be shy!

Enjoy a family meal at the dining table (seats 6 adults easily) or tea and toast at the kitchen counter (3 adults).

Relax on our cosy couches, retro armchairs, or chill on a bean bag if that’s more your style. The sun-lounger is a great way to soak up the sun and the deck chairs are the best bet for that afternoon cold one.

Enjoy a family movie night, play a game, work on a jigsaw, or get lost in one of our books. A small selection of children's toys and sports equipment are also available for our younger guests.

The bathroom is generous in size with a shower, bathtub, and a heated towel rail. Toilet separate. Full laundry facilities are available.

Guest access
The house is yours alone for the duration of the stay, but you will find a fourth bedroom locked. This unadvertised room is kept as a private space.

Other things to note
We collect fresh rainwater in tanks, so please consider the water supply before using the bath or taking exceptionally long showers.

We need a new BBQ, so while one won't be available this summer, our kitchen facilities will have you covered. However, if the kids are up for an adventure just a couple of minute's walk away is a lakeside park with BBQ.......perfect for letting the kids run wild while you chat and turn sausages on a summer evening!

The main pavilion (3 bedroom self contained house ) and the garage.

Other things to note
We are uniquely able to cater for hunting and fishing parties, with helicopters able to land on the property to enable access to some of the best back country fishing / hunting and skiing in the Southern Hemisphere.

There are some unique differences about being in our country setting which may not be for everyone. We are in a rural setting which can mean snow, heat, bugs, sheep, other livestock and birds. If you are after nightclubs, parties and the choice of many restaurants then we may not be the right location for you. However, if what you're after is AMAZING mountain views out of every window, curling up in front of the fire and a night sky you’ll rave about to your friends then you've come to the right place.

While children are welcome to stay, parents should be aware that there is no fire guard around the log burner.

A note about the "neighbours": We're a lodge surrounded by fields and mountains. As such we are surrounded by wildlife all the time. While our lodge is completely vermin proof, sheep, hares, hedgehogs, field mice and birds can enter the lodge through open doors. We recommend that you keep the access doors closed at all times especially when leaving the lodge alone for periods of time, and use the windows or ducted air conditioning for airflow, in order to avoid unwanted visits :)


IMPORTANT **WEATHER POLICY**

Solitude Lodge is in a rural area, as such the roads to and from Kingston can (not common but possible) become blocked in very unusual weather events due to high amounts of snowfall. This is beyond our control. It is the guest's responsibility to keep track of upcoming weather events. In the event that unusually high snowfall is predicted and the guest chooses to relocate elsewhere, Solitude Lodge will accept a cancellation and issue a refund on any unused night if notified before checkout. A weather forecast from a reputable weather forecasting service must be used as documentation for the cancellation.

Valley view • Shampoo • Conditioner • Free washer – In building • Hot water • Cleaning products • Mountain view • Hair dryer • Bathtub • Body soap
