Sue is a fantastic host. The check in and check out info was really helpful. The property is great with a fantastic view of the lake. The boat ramp is less than a minute away and we also used the bach mooring when we came back from skiing for lunch. Sue also left us some coffee pods to use in the coffee machine which was a nice touch. Definitely recommend this property for families looking to relax close to the lake.

Next to SH 30 across the lake. 45 mins to tarawera fall and 15 mins to soda spring . No internet, but we felt like we needed a break from our phone. We went for a row with kayak. We will be back again next summer .

super lake front location

Very nice location--easy to travel to all activity spots. Nice small and warm house, highly recommended. Even there is no internet, but that can keep the children out of all the devices.

Easter Fun

The bach is in a great location with easy access and had everything we needed for a great stay. We spent our days playing on the lake and then sat on the deck at night watching the sunset. It was a great way to spend Easter. Would definitely come back.
