Very comfortable and handy to the lake. The house has been fitted out stylishly but retained its bach charm. A short distance from SH1 and the Wharewaka shopping centre.

Great place to stay! We had a group of 8 and the bach was perfect for us — plenty of space, comfortable, and in a great location close to the lake.Communication with the host was excellent from start to finish. They were very easy to deal with, responsive, and made everything straightforward.A great spot for families or larger groups looking for somewhere relaxed and convenient to stay in Taupō. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again. Highly recommend
