Welcome to your lakeside haven!
This two-story retreat accommodates up to six guests (or seven with the ottoman bed). Upstairs, indulge in lake views from the master bedroom's queen bed, while a second bedroom offers two singles. Downstairs, another queen bedroom awaits, along with updated bathrooms for your convenience.
Relax in style with quality furnishings, a cozy log fire, and a heat pump ensuring year-round comfort. Stay entertained with free Wi-Fi and a Smart TV. Whip up culinary delights in the fully equipped kitchen, complete with laundry facilities for added convenience.
Park your car or store bikes/equipment in the lockable garage, while the secured property and fully fenced private garden offer peace of mind.

The property was fantastic, a great well maintained home. The house had all that you would need in a home a way from home. The fireplace was great on those cold winter Taupo nights. A really excellent location being close to central Taupo and cafes etc. Would definitely recommend house to others. Be My Quest Taupo were really great to deal with, excellent back up support made sure things went smoothly, really appreciated their extra effort.
