Lovely Getaway

A charming, accommodating place to stay - it had everything we needed for a large group. Incredibly close to the lake, and a short trip into Rotorua. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here.

Family time

We loved our stay at this property. What wasn’t modernised was charming but the large updated kitchen was so good, as was the two bathrooms. We could dine at any of the three areas & the barbecue we used as well The children loved the lake front & jetty, great for down time

VOGELENZANG

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Great location and the new kitchen, bathrooms etc were excellent. Can see that it is a well loved family location, we hope to return again next year. The boats in storage looked superb, used to race a Paper Tiger years ago, next year will be bring paddleboards down and model yachts. Great location for mountain biking and exploring the area. Thank you.

Great holiday house

Great homely holiday house with everything you could need. Great amenities and beautiful location right across from the lake. The only warning i would give parents with young ones is becareful of the glass doors. We had 3 little ones run straight in to them and hurt themselves because there is no safety stickers on them and they are super clear. I'd recommend this place for a nice family getaway.

One room, two centuries

Can't fault the location, but the house was strange. Partially renovated but the living/dining was still original and not in a good way. It was very dark and not very welcoming. Would probably stay again though just because of the location.

Great place

This house has the most amazing view and if you want to get away for some R & R, it's the perfect spot. The kitchen and two bathrooms are designed for a large group and work very well. Our only difficulty was not having a phone number to ring while we were there. The air conditioner was difficult to work and it would have helped to be able to ask someone about it.

Wonderful stay.

We had a great stay. The location is beautiful, so quiet and you basically have the whole lake to yourself. The house feels so homely and with the configuration of the beds it’s really comfortable for families. Thanks for having us
