Why they chose this property

When we go to the lake, all of our everyday stress falls away. Tarawera reminds us life is beautiful. It's a place filled with fond memories, shared with people who matter to us.

Walk around the lake or go for a swim. Mountain biking at Redwoods is world class - you can start on Tarawera Rd at the new Tawa carpark. Rotorua town centre is about 20 mins away - close enough for day visits and far enough to feel you are back amongst tress and birds.

What makes this property unique

Excellent place to relax and unwind with family and friends.
