Korimako Ridge - Lake Hawea Holiday Home
Just one street back from stunning Lake Hāwea, tucked high on the lake moraine, Korimako Ridge is a peaceful, well-located retreat—perfect for families seeking relaxation and adventure year-round.
The open-plan living, dining, and kitchen areas flow seamlessly through bifold doors onto sun-soaked decks and a private courtyard, creating effortless indoor–outdoor living. Enjoy family barbecues in the sheltered courtyard or unwind after a day of exploring.
In winter, return from the slopes to a warm and inviting home, ideal for relaxing and recharging.
The garden is a haven for native birdlife, including bellbirds (korimako), and features neighbouring apricot and cherry trees.
You’ll have easy access to a local café, hotel restaurant, supermarket, and the Lake Hāwea Community Centre, which includes a library, tennis courts, playground, and cricket pitch.
Take a short stroll to the lake for swimming, boating, or water sports, or explore nearby walking and biking tracks along the Lake Hāwea and Hāwea River, leading to Albert Town and the popular Pembroke Patisserie.
Well positioned for day trips to Wānaka, Cromwell, Makarora, and the Blue Pools, as well as adventures towards the West Coast. In winter, Treble Cone and Cardrona ski fields are within easy reach, with Queenstown just over an hour away.

We stayed in the house for two nights. It’s clean, however the Wi-Fi didn’t work at all! It’s very inconvenient. We contacted the service team several times but still not work. No hot water for the first day. No hair dryer.
