Tucked away in a quiet corner - you don't want to leave

Perfect! Just footsteps down to the lake, ample parking, lovely neighbors and very responsive property management. The hosts even left a welcome gift of wine and chocolates for us :)Groceries, coffee shop and brew pub all within (extended) walking distance. The trail down at the lake takes you straight into town.

Nice quiet getaway nar Taupo

Nice comfortable quiet place to stay near Taupo within easy reach of the Town and the lake. In 2023, would benefit from internet connectivity especially if, like me, you have two bored teenagers and the weather isn't good like it was on our stay.
