Great place to stay
We were a group of five adults who came to Taupo for the Across the Lake swim. It was great to stay near the start of the swim. The house is well equipped, super clean, has a beautiful view and is really well set up for a group. There are bedrooms and lounges on both floors so it would work for families too. Having two full bathrooms was also great. Highly recommend this as a place to stay in Taupo.

Paradise by the lake
We had family visiting us from overseas and wanted to show them what an awesome coubtty we live in. The bach was everything we wanted, sunrises and sunsets on the deck. Plenty of parking, enough space for everyone, clean with plenty of cleaning supplies, close to Taupo central and water and beds were comfy...

Awesome spot
Awesome spot. Nice tidy house. Heaps of parking behind house as we had multiple cars as well as a tandem car trailer. Only down side was the very creaky beds. We had baby in porta cot so the creaky beds woke her every time you moved. Otherwise we had a good stay. Cheers
