Wonderful stay

Davids rustic cabin is a fantastic spot. Take two lefts and you’re at the lake, perfect for kids to play around. The cabin itself is so cozy, spacious, it’s all there. Thanks for the stay

Great simple bach, would benefit from a deep prodessional clean as feels very lived in. Bur a great nostalgia trip to the 80's with the decor and a wonderful location. Games room downstairs was a hit.

We had a wonderful stay on this property. It was warm, cosy, spacious and wonderfully equipped for our family. The kids enjoyed time lakeside, alongside some great food at Okere Falls store. Highly recommend, we will be back! Easy staycation option from Tauranga.
