We booked the house to get the grown kids down from Auckland, while we came up from Wellington together for a weekend. Lovely location! Only shame was the spa wasn't quite what I was hoping for. But the other facilities were useful and we had a fantastic time.
The overall condition of the house is old, in need of a major overhaul, paint is coming off the window sills. The overall decor is old, in need of a major upgrade
The house smell damp when we first entered.
The spa pool was not very inviting, due to the gardens being overgrown and un tended.
Overall impressions are not very good, would not recommend this house.
We would not go out on the upper deck as these were a real fall hazard, moss build up, and bad decking.
Needs a lot of work to be bought up to a reasonable standard
We had an awesome weekend here. The place is so close to the lake! Spa was awesome after a long day and the rooms are well appointed. The kitchen has everything you need and we loved the bbq and outdoor areas. Thank you.
Great bach in a great location. Access to all the toys (kayaks, etc...) was a nice bonus. And the spa after the Tongariro crossing was fantastic...
