House was nice and comfy, but does need some maintenance outside. Windows need a clean, dirty sills and maybe a good dusting inside as a little musty but might be the old curtains need replacing. Otherwise we had a nice relaxing and comfortable stay. Good location a bit of a longer walk than we wanted.

Came to Taupo for the Berm Buster motorcycle event over 2 days, this was an awesome place to stay, especially the location, and the fact it had a double garage to store the bikes in was a winner for sure. Highly recommend.
