All good
Front door dead lock needs attention. Doors in master bedroom need serious fixing. We just find it strange that we pay for a clean of the property, yet we are required to vacuum. We also have to remove our rubbish and no rubbish bin is provided this is nota very good thing to require when we pay to stay ….we suppose some people are very dirty so perhaps a slightly different approach like pay more for cleaning or less if you clean. We still had a great time thx again

Our 3 night getaway
Our experience renting this property was pretty good. We all enjoyed our stay and having walking distance to the lake was so great. Plenty of room for outside games and plenty of room out on the deck to have a bbq and enjoy snacks and dinner out on.

About the host

Hosted by BERNARD LILBURN

Host profile image
Our family love this area, and all that it offers. We are keen boat people and our children all waterski, and we enjoy the lake and its great fishing! It is as busy as you want it to be!

Why they chose this property

My Family had a childhood in a family Bach in this street. We just love the area and all that it offers. The family still have the Bach and we have bought this house in the same street for our family, as have all my siblings.
Life here is great, and we have neighbours who are friendly, helpful and sociable.
There are great views from the deck up and down the lake, and we enjoy our outdoor living, being sheltered from the breeze that often sends lakefront people indoors!
We love Waitetoko and surrounds.
It is our Happy Place.

What makes this property unique

Handy to either Taupo or Turangi. Whakapapa (Mt Ruapehu) is an hours drive and the Sky Waka Gondola is a must do and see.
Hot pools at Tokaanu are an easy 20 minute drive.
Easy access to river fishing with the Tongariro, Tauranga Taupo, and Hinemaia all close by.
There are 3 boat ramps close by, but the new ramps at Motuoapa are the best, especially if the lake is low.
