Corena's place was a comfy homely space for my family and I to enjoy. Location was great. Kitchen was well equipped though we would've loved to have used the bbq facilities. Maybe replace the double mattress in the end room and batch in the near future but otherwise a beautiful spacious home with cosy family vibes. We would love to stay again in the future and would highly recommend this home to others. Thank you for a most enjoyable stay.

The house was good. Convenient to town and near restaurants and shops. Listing said 2 bathrooms. It was but one was outside which they failed to mention. Also beds were extremely uncomfortable. Other than that it was fine and we would stay there again if they got new mattresses.

Our group of four friends have been coming for an annual 'girls weekend' for more years than we can remember. We find the house warm, clean, convenient and ideally situated for the lakeside and the town. Also centrally located for our travels from Whanganui, Bay of Plenty and Hamilton.Just perfect - we will be backThank you Reena
