Fantastic house for large groups
We loved staying at this house. It is superbly set up for large groups with plenty of space and rooms. It was very clean and tidy, and had everything we needed. The managers were very easy to deal with. A great location and view topped it off. We’d recommend staying here if you are a sports or family group.

Great for big groups
We are a group of 4 families that meet in Taupo every year so finding a place like this where we can all stay together is just so great, its close to everything and big enough to hide away for some peace and quiet. Will be looking at staying again here in the future.

Comfortable venue with great views
The property was maintained well. Very suitable for 3-4 couples. Also good optional space for children. Having both an upstairs and a downstairs lounge was a bonus. However, the downstairs lounge TV did not seem to work.

Perfect house for a family gathering for 16 people from 12 - 75 :)
This was the perfect property for our family gathering. Big, comfortable, more than enough room for 16. 2 lounge areas was perfect for adults and teenager separation, more than enough seating for everyone, which we have found lacking in other properties. House is beautiful and has ample crockery, towels bedding etc for a large group.

Amazing!
Really amazing place! Beautiful home and beautiful view. We did have two problems, tons of ants and no dryer. There were a lot of ants but we contacted the owners and they said the house was going to get treated for it shortlt after our stay. There was a washer that we found quickly. We couldn’t find the dryer(as stated on the listing) for some time until we stumbled upon it down stairs. It was very old and only worked for one load. We chose this property because it said there was a washer and dryer available which our group of 16 really needed. We needed up having to hang the laundry all over the house and then eventually took it to a laundromat. Other than that this house was great.

This is a fantastic place to stay with a large group of people, there was plenty of space without feeling at all crowded. All that we needed to make our stay enjoyable and relaxing was at our fingertips. With a week long stay the plunge pool could have done with a fresh lot of water part way through our stay. The house had an amazing view of the lake and mountains. This would be a lovely warm place in the winter.

House and environment fantastic and worked well with 4 families
House and environment fantastic and worked well with 4 families. We did not feel the outside balustrade and spapool fence were childproof, our grandchild of 2 crawling through the gap by the spapool fence by the stairs. We find this was a MAJOR SAFETY issue that needs to be addressed. Other than that we could not fault it.
