Ideal place to stay in Taupo

Very convenient location, lake view, close to town centre and many Taupo attractions. Warm, comfortable modern house, with everything needed for an enjoyable holiday. Lots of room, too: 4 bedrooms & 2 bathrooms. This was our third time in this house: that says something about its suitability.
