About this property

Little Blue Lake House

Little blue lake house
Across the road from the reserve and a short walk to the beautiful lake front. Relax in comfort on the large deck with peeps of lake views. A perfect place to unwind with family and friends. Lots of off-street parking for cars and the boat. Two of the bedrooms are in the main house with the third being a large outside room, perfect for 2 families sharing a holiday to maintain their own space, or for older children.
Old school Bach with board games and puzzles to share, and a TV that is only to run the extensive DVD collection, Cricket, Molkky, and Kubb available for outside fun as well as Frisbees for the Frisbee golf course across the road.
Please be aware linen/pillows and towels are not provided during your stay. All beds have just a clean mattress protector on.

A great property in a great location.We really enjoyed our stay in this bach - it is the quintessential great NZ bach.The property was very clean and well maintained. It has a nice front and back lawn and room to relax in.The appliances are in excellent condition, the beds comfortable, and a lovely working log burner for the chilly evenings. The home is within easy walking distance to the shops and the lakeside reserve, and the hosts are quick to respond to any questions.I would absolutely stay here again.

Great little bach, good condition for it's age, and it was great there were so many bed options. The kitchen was well stocked with enough plates and cutlery for a larger group (there were 6 of us) and good sized bowls and pots. We appreciated the heaters, it was cold while we stayed. Will stay again if we are coming back to work in the area. Thanks.
