We were delighted to stay in this beautiful home. It was so lovely to be right on the lakeside with stunning views. The house was very well equipped with everything you needed. The furniture and beds were comfortable. We would love to return

Amazing views great location
We stayed for 3 nights. Bach was warm and cosy and had everything we needed for a great family holiday. Great lakefront location with an easy walk to sailing club for breakfast and dinner. Supermarket close by and a short drive to Taupo town.

Fantastic Location
Location was great right on the Lakefront and Lake Walk with gorgeous views and lovely afternoon sun. Perfect for walks and bike rides. Two Mile Sailing Club with yummy food & drink options and dog-friendly with relaxed vibes is a nice short walk away too. Check-in was easy and good communication with host.

Perfect for stress relief
With a few stressful weeks of relocating my parents to a rest home this was the perfect break away. Far better than expected, the home is spacious, very well equipment and comfortable, including the beds. The location was perfect, especially being on the Lake. This will be at the top of my list for my next NZ break away.

Great spot
Perfect location. Short walk to lakeside cafe and right beside lakeside walk and cycle way. Having the lawnmowing , weedeating and leaf blowing being done while we were there was very loud and felt intrusive, with the worker not hesitating to look through the window at us. Other than that would totally recommend the spot. Very expensive for 2 'gold card' people, but it was absolute lakeside and a treat for us.

Magical place
Waking up to the lakeshore is an amazing experience, this took me back to our family Bach in Taupo in the nineties, was very cool! We all enjoyed our stay. The only thing I would say is a bit of maintenance is required. The hand shower was cable tied up which must have been previously broken and roof guttering rusting out . We were going to use the bbq but it was very dirty so we decided not to. But minor faults we really enjoyed our stay with our family

We had a wonderful stay at this property, the most amazing views, beautiful walks, close to everything. The house has plenty of room and is super cozy on those colder nights. We would definitely love to stay again next time we visit Taupo!
