Frequently asked questions
Carpark and Pay Station – Transport options from our carpark.
Where are you located?
The Hawthorne Drive Carpark is located east of the Remarkables Park Town Centre and starts near the Ramada Hotel in Frankton, Queenstown.
Go past the Remarkables Park Town Centre and continue on Hawthorne Drive. Turn right onto Cherry Blossom Avenue, then left on Golden Elm or Crab Apple Lane. Each entry point is identified with a large blue parking sign.
If this car park is full, we have an ‘overflow’ car park on Red Oaks Drive near Game Over. Which is also identified by a large blue parking sign at the entry
Is your Location Map the best to use?
Yes the Hawthorne Drive Carpark & Red Oaks Drive Carpark are positioned amongst a new and ever growing development area of Frankton, Queenstown, so often online maps
i.e. Google aren’t up to date or correct.
Each of our seven (7) entry points to our parking locations are identified by a large blue parking sign!

Where are the onsite Pay Stations located?
They are located near to the entry and exit points of the car parks.
They all have a large RED sign above them that reads PAY HERE
Will there be a car space available when I arrive to your parking facility?
No guarantees as we are a public car park available to many users however, we have over 600 spaces and have filled them all in our 10+ years of operation.
We will always have space for your vehicle, as long as you use our Location Map to find one of our six (6) parking areas with seven (7) entry points.
Do you have a shuttle service?
NO – Why?
- We are only a 1.2km flat walk from the Hawthorne Drive Carpark to the Queenstown Airport, call it a healthy option.
- We want to keep our prices as competitive as possible; a shuttle would add more cost to us, which in turn would increase our daily parking rates
