Opened December 1999, Blanket Bay lies near the tiny settlement of Glenorchy on the northern shores of Lake Wakatipu.It takes its name from pioneer farmers a century ago who sheared their sheep on the shores of the bay under rough shelters made of blankets. Today, Blanket Bay is associated with a magical haven of peace and solitude from the outside world. The Lodge is a rare combination of unspoiled beauty, natural experiences and luxury accommodation. Built in the grand style of the finest alpine lodges, it is a helicopter ride away from Jurassic rainforests and majestic peaks.

About Queenstown:
Queenstown bears more of a resemblance to an alpine village than a thriving metropolis. On the banks of Lake Wakatipu and hemmed in by the Southern Alps, the town is in no way disadvantaged when it comes to adventurous time-passers. Helicopters show you unparalleled views or drop you in the middle of untouched powder. Frothing white water begs to be rafted, kayaked, or even surfed. Snowy peaks challenge those who enjoy strapping a board or two on their feet and descending as quickly as possible as well as those who prefer to grind out harrowing ascents. Somewhere between the dizzying heights and watery lows is a realm cherished by mountain bikers. Snaked by vast quantities of prime single track, its a fat-tire enthusiasts dream. Looking across the lake, the scene is dominated by and Queenstown defined by the jagged peaks with a rock n roll name: The Remarkables.
