Top class hospitality from the sweetest hosts. Landing in this remote corner of the planet and being warmly welcomed by Liz and her staff as if we just stepped into their personal living room was a real treat. Antique wood burning stoves and reclaimed nautical light fixtures set the tone for a restful evening with a home cooked meal painstakingly prepared by the hostess herself. We were all seated at a long farmhouse style dinner table with hand written menus and designated seating assignments to encourage mingling amongst guests at this family style dinner. It was so great to hear and share stories as we met travelers from around the world. Accommodations were equally warm and welcoming with private cabins and shared bathing facilities that are top notch with all the perfect high end designer soaps including a stunning sauna to top things off. We enjoyed every moment of our stay at The Great Glenorchy Alpine Camp.

We absolutely loved our stay here. We were pleasantly surprised with the authenticity of the lodge and the accommodation - the photos just do not reflect how special it is. Doug and Liz were incredible hosts, making a very warm and family-like environment. We had one of the best meals of our lives gathered round the dining table with the other guests, then toasting marshmallows on the outdoor fire. We made friends with another guest who we are still in contact with now. Our cabin was everything we dreamed of and more with its own log burner, heated underflooring in the bathroom and a very cosy vibe with the wind blowing outside! We even woke up to fresh snow capped mountains. Our only regret is staying for just the one night - we will 100% be back, booking mountaineering excursions whilst we are there too, Thanks so much Doug and Liz - we'll be back!

We had a wonderful evening staying here. The rooms are so cosy and lovely having your own fireplace. Great food and company. Love the set up and as a local from Queenstown we can't wait to go back. I would highly recommend a visit to Glenorchy and staying at this location.

This place is awesome. The hosts were really friendly and helpful. Great accommodation, the fires are awesome, the food was amazing including the complimentary breakfast! And there are great facilities for cleaning and drying gear and clothes - which is especially useful if you have been on a mission in the hills). I highly recommend this place and will be back
