The house was very clean and extremely well appointed. Everything we could need was available. Very tastefully decorated. Host was very helpful and responded quickly to enquiries. Highly recommend if you are stopping over in Hamilton.
This house has been beautifully put together with superb attention to detail. It was immaculate throughout and had absolutely everything we could want. Our hosts were super quick to respond when messaged. Location was excellent, so close to the lake, hospital, and town. Quite possibly this was the best part of our stay in Hamilton!

Thanks for your review Peter. We very much appreciate it! Cheers Aaron
The entire house was recently, beautifully remodeled from top to bottom. Bathrooms were modern and very functional. Private outdoor bathtub was an uncommon treat. Kitchen was very nicely equipped. House was on a very busy street, but front yard fence and electric security gate provided privacy and deadened street noise. Nice deck off the back of the house with a view looking east. House was less than 200 meters to Hamilton Lake, which has a beautiful 2.4 mile walking path around the lake. We would highly recommend this home.

About the host
Hosted by Aaron
Petra and I decided that being work optional before we were 50 sounded like a great idea. So, when we sold our business last year, we were able to achieve that dream. That sounds great but after a bit of travel, a lot of sleeping in and watching netflix we decided we should be a bit more productive. That's how Lemon Tree Cottage came about. We purchased a house at auction situated 3 minutes from Waikato Hospital and went about renovating it. Petra renovated like she was moving in so we blew the budget by 20%. The house you are about to stay in was purchased at auction 12 months later in 2025 and guess what? We blew the budget again on redoing the driveway and putting in the retaining wall to give you some usable flat lawn for kids to be able to run around on. Neither were budgeted for! The end result however is something we believe you will enjoy!
Why they chose this property
We enjoy the Lakes suburb because of its easy access to the CBD, hospital, lake and roading that gets you out of Hamilton fairly quickly. Getting to the airport easily is also a bonus. From a personal point of view we actually own 3 houses on this street with a view to one day moving into one of them.
What makes this property unique
Apart from being close to the Hospital and Lake our cottage is a short drive (or walk to be fair) to the CBD. What makes it special is our limited addition Dr Seuss artwork in the house......well at least that's what we think!
