A great place to stay, right on the lake and the house had old school family holiday house warmth, so much character! Close enough to town but still a private place. Everything you need, fully equipped kitchen, laundry and comfy beds & a great view! Highly recommend!

We were a family of 5 adults that absolutely loved our stay. Comfy beds and unforgettable views of the lake. We were more than comfortable for our 9 night stay. Caroline was a pleasure to deal with and we would love to come back again.

Loved our stay, definately a cosy house right on the lake front with a motel right next door. easy walking distance to town and plenty of restaurants. Warm and inviting with a 1950s feel about it. Would definately stay again!

Amazing views great location

We stayed for 3 nights. Bach was warm and cosy and had everything we needed for a great family holiday. Great lakefront location with an easy walk to sailing club for breakfast and dinner. Supermarket close by and a short drive to Taupo town.
