The most beautiful view from the house over the lake and on to the mountain, it was so peaceful and serene! The house was well equipped and very comfortable, such a great stay, thanks!

Beautiful location, everything we needed. Amazing views of the lake. Check in easy. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily book this property again.
When we go to the lake, all of our everyday stress falls away. Tarawera reminds us life is beautiful. It's a place filled with fond memories, shared with people who matter to us.
Walk around the lake or go for a swim. Mountain biking at Redwoods is world class - you can start on Tarawera Rd at the new Tawa carpark. Rotorua town centre is about 20 mins away - close enough for day visits and far enough to feel you are back amongst tress and birds.
What makes this property unique
Excellent place to relax and unwind with family and friends.
