About this property

Waitahanui Lake House - Lake Taupo Holiday Home

This bright and sunny classic Kiwi bach is the perfect family-friendly base on the water's edge. Welcome to the Waitahanui Lake House!

After a day of fly fishing or kayaking, cool off under the outdoor shower and relax with a drink seated on the lovely timber deck, with lake views.

Enjoy the company of family with table tennis, DVD’s, Freeview, and Sky TV.

This four-bedroom, two-bathroom holiday-home sleeps 10 people over two floors, with separate living and kitchen areas. Bedding supplied is one king bed, two queens, one single and two sets of bunks.

Amenities include a Smart TV, BBQ, heat pump, and laundry facilities.

The fully fenced section is located right on State Highway One with just a short walk to the lakes edge. Make sure of the off-street space that can accommodate a boat up to 7m.

Located roughly 15 minutes' drive south from the town of Taupo itself, or half an hour north from Turangi, conveniences are not far away.  

This is an excellent accommodation option in a beautiful setting with abundant options for activity, or just chilling out.

Please note that there are kayaks available for guest use, but guests must supply their own life jackets.

Please note a bond may be charged at certain times of the year. One of our team members will contact you if this is required for your booking.
