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.
