Perfect Location Old School Bach

The location of this property is awesome. Right across from lake. Takes ten seconds and you are at the water. House was clean and was your classic kiwi bach. We will definitely be booking again. Was great you could have pets and was loads of room for outdoor games on the yard. Thanks

Disliked: Communication

1. communication with property manager2. missing usual essentials - see below

A nice property, but some essentials which are usually provided with this kind of accommodation were missing: - dish detergent (I decanted some from a friend staying nearby, so there's some there now) - hand-wash / soap - paper towels (I found the BBQ was covered in fat & bits of food - had to use toilet paper to wipe clean) - salt & other condiments There may be other items I've forgotten. The house smelt very musty when I arrived, particularly the lower level and there were wet towels in the washing machine. Other than that, my stay was very pleasant.

Very comfortable, well furnished, clean and beautiful surroundings! A fenced property would be helpful to families with small children (and a dog) But certainly not a major issue. Proximity to the Lake front is great! We have rebooked this property for a week in January and are so looking forward to another stay!!!
