Our Happy Place

Over our quiet road from the lake is our very comfortable and recently refurbed well appointed 2 storied house with (2 TV's and Netflix) 2 living areas, upstairs and downstairs. Great for the Kids! 2 dbl bedrooms upstairs, and bunkroom downstairs with 4 bunk beds and 2 extra mattresses. Large outside deck with great views. Close to 3 boat ramps and ski lanes at the picturesque and quieter end of Lake Taupo. Great fishing either from boat or fly fish the famed Tauranga Taupo (3 min drive) or Tongariro Rivers (15 minute drive). Tokaanu hot pools are 20 mins away. Taupo town is a 25 minute drive North with all the town has to offer. Taupo Motorsport park is an easy 35 minutes. Wairakei golf and hot pools 40 mins North. Mt Ruapehu is 1 hours drive, and call in at Tokaanu hot pools on your way back. We use hotel grade linen for your comfort and hygiene.
