Great accomodation suitable for large group
Great place to stay in Taupo. Big enough for multiple families or large group of friends, as there are 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms so everyone gets their own space. Living area is nice to hang out in, with an open plan layout and views of the lake from the balcony. Convenient location

Five male friends in Taupo for trail ride. Having five bedrooms meant we all had a room. Note, one of the group said the downstairs shower overflows. (so we just used another shower.)

Family get together
We were a family group, three sisters (94, 84, 78) one husband (85) and two daughters, so young, in their sixties! Stairs allowed easy access with two showers and toilets upstairs and two bedrooms and facilities downstairs. Well equipped kitchen. Lovely to see the afternoon sun setting over the lake in the afternoon while relaxing on the deck. Great parking. Would recommend the property to friends.

Stay @ 28
The accommodation was exactly what 6 retiree golfers from Whangarei required. It had space a plenty. Close handy to center of town a 5 minute drive. The house itself requires allot of tender love and care ( maintenance). The paint around nearly all the windows requires attention along with the ceiling with cracks and paint coming off. In saying this the house was clean tidy and spacious it met our requirements.
