Fantastic Lakeside Bach

We, as a group of friends, stayed in the main house. It was wonderful and cosy, place was clean, beds comfortable and the view was incredible. Communication with Jo was very friendly and we had all the information that we needed for our stay. We loved it and would stay again.

Fantastic bach in a beautiful location, right on Kinloch's lakefront reserve. Lovely and tidy with plenty of space in the bunkroom / garage. Perfect for our group riding some of the Great Lake Trails. Thanks very much for a great stay.

Lake front paradise

Comfortable, well equipped, traditional Kiwi batch. Stunning location, front row lake views and walking/cycling trails on the doorstep. We loved the Whangamata stream walk and fairy dell. The owner Jo was very helpful and lovely to deal with.

The Perfect Location

We loved this bach stay. The location right on the reserve that backs straight onto the lake is amazing. We loved playing in the back yard with our kids with the wonderful view of the lake and mountains. The bach is in original condition but nice and homely. Communication was clear and made it really easy to check in and check out. We’ll definitely be planning to stay here again.
