About this property

The Lake House - Wharewaka Point Bach

The Lake House in Wharewaka sounds like a fantastic holiday home for families visiting Taupō. With three bedrooms and two bathrooms, there's plenty of space for everyone to relax and unwind. The spacious living area, complete with a large heat pump, ensures that guests can stay comfortable no matter the season.

One of the highlights of this home is its stunning views of the lake, which can be enjoyed from the deck while sipping on a morning coffee or enjoying a meal prepared in the fully equipped kitchen. The views of Mount Tauhara from the kitchen are an added bonus, making meal preparation a scenic experience.

For those who love water activities, the Lake House is less than 1km from the popular swimming beach at Wharewaka point, providing easy access to the lake for swimming, fishing, kayaking, and more.

It's important to note that the Lake House is a classic kiwi bach without Wi-Fi, making it the perfect retreat for those looking to disconnect from the digital world and enjoy quality time with their loved ones. The Garage in some images is not available.

Overall, the Lake House in Wharewaka is a great option for families looking for a comfortable and convenient home base during their Taupō getaway.

Fab family retreat
House was spacious and very well equipped for our family holiday. Plenty of warm blankets. Heatpump was wonderful and kept upstairs toasty warm. Downstairs did get chilly overnight but there were plenty of blankets available. Would recommend highly, and will be looking to come back again. A great place to base ourselves.
