Great stay on all accounts. The property manager was very communicative and easy to work with. The views are gorgeous! The house delivered on everything advertised and did blnot dissapoint. Perfect location out of the hustle and bustle of Rotorua but close enough to be in town on 5 minutes.

Amazing views and quaint house

We had a fabulous time here. We had no towels to begin with but that was easily fixed and everything else was in order. A beautiful spot and we loved heading down to the lake for a swim each day.

Stunning view and beautifully appointed lake house

Loved the view and huge deck to sit out and enjoy it. My girls enjoyed the huge room above the garage with tv and lounge. Open fire was a treat and we played the board games too! Thank you for sharing your awesome Lake House in Okareka.

Best Deck at Lake Okareka

Absolutely loved our stay at this property. It is by far the cleanest and most well equipped house we have stayed in at this Lake so far. Views are amazing. Plenty of parking and room the children to kick a ball etc. We will definitely be back this Summer! Thanks Norman!

It felt like home

This truly felt like a home away from home with spectacular views as an added bonus. There was everything we needed and the house was loving maintained and furnished. My youngest kids loved having their own separate house, as they called... and with a pink bathroom!!! Just a short walk to the lake, which was lovely. It was very quiet, even on a hot busy weekend when the lake was crowded it was peaceful at the house. I couldn't actually say how it could be improved- we all loved it! Thank you
