Concert weekend

Great location, and a beautiful house, had everything we needed and not too far from Taupō.The house was very hot and could do with air conditioning in the summer months. Wifi would have been a bonus. Overall, experience was good, great communication with the host, responding quickly.

Awesome House for Families

This house is so well set up for families - lots of space and the comfiest beds we've ever come across in a hired house! The communication with the property manager was clear and timely. A great place to stay in summer or winter.

Clean and comfy!

The property was very clean, with lots of sleeping options. I can imagine a couple of families staying comfortably in this home. The kitchen is great, and there are plenty of vessels for cooking in. We would absolutely stay here again!

Absolutely Wonderful

Amazing home with the perfect set up for families and couples. Lovely clean home with a warm feel to it, we didn't want to leave! Great communication with Ross. Short 10 min walk to lakefront/marina. Suggest stopping in at Licorice Cafe, doing the short Motuoapa Lookout walk, and driving 10-15 mins north to Bullipoint picnic stop. We will definitely be coming back!!

Enjoyable stay

There were only two of us on this visit but it would be perfect for two families - a bathroom, master bedroom and bunk room at each end separated by the living area. Comfy beds.

Wi-Fi-disappointment

As we fully understand the owners idea of wanting to have a bach with no internet and instead focus on the company and all the amazing things to do in the area, it did give us quite a problem not being able to go on line during our stay. Coming from abroad we don’t have access to internet (w/o paying a fortune) and all the planning of activities became a hassle. Nice layout of the house. Functional. Spacious. We recommend it but be aware of the lack of Wi-Fi.
