About this property

Puka Lodge (Rear dwelling) - Pukawa Bay Home

Puka Lodge (rear dwelling) is a comfortable and relaxing 3 bedroom Lockwood style Pukawa Bay holiday home. It has boat parking available and is just a short walk to the lake's edge.

Setting the ideal holiday atmosphere close to the lake, this home includes cosy and bright open-plan living. Stay snug indoors relaxing in front of the fireplace if you're planning a winter stay, or set out on an adventure with the beach and boat ramp just moments from your door!

Each of the 3 bedrooms at this Pukawa Bay accommodation is located off the hallway. Bedrooms 1 and 2 are both fitted with queen beds and bedroom 3 is fitted with 1 single bunk set and 1 single rollaway bed.

The front dwelling of Puka Lodge is also available for booking with a shared entrance through an adjoining utility area, making this a great option for an extended family group to holiday together while maintaining space and privacy!

When you are not relaxing on-site, you're within walking distance to the lake, a short drive to Tokaanu with hot pools and kayaking options, or a 40-minute drive to the ski fields!

For a summer lake getaway, or a great ski base in the winter - Rear Puka Lodge awaits!
Please note a bond may be charged at certain times of the year. One of our team members will contact you if this is required for your booking.

A great little spot
We enjoyed our stay here. Great location, the back unit is restful looking out on bush. Some noise between units but not too bad. Everything we needed.

Excellent for family groups
We stayed in the rear house, but were with a group in the front house, and the setup was great - opened up into one big house. Clean and tidy, awesome location, and lots of firewood. Might try a summer trip next time. Some extra blankets and warm sheets for winter would be nice (or bring a few extras yourself for the chilly months).
Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2020
