Trailside Escape - Lake Taupo Holiday Home
With dual ensuites, warm open-plan living, and a practical layout ideal for families or friends, it’s the perfect base for exploring the Central Plateau.
Step onto a sunny outdoor area and savour a morning coffee or unwind after a day on the lake or mountain. The open-plan living space welcomes guests with a cosy, laid-back atmosphere, whether you’re settling in with a book, enjoying a movie, or sharing stories from the day. The dining area brings everyone together, while the galley-style kitchen makes preparing and serving meals a breeze.
Comfort continues across two well-appointed bedrooms, each with its own ensuite for privacy and convenience. A heat pump provides year-round comfort, and a full range of practical touches—from laundry facilities to entertainment options—ensures an easy, enjoyable stay.
From this handy Tūrangi location, guests can quickly reach the ski fields via SH47, soak in the Tokaanu Thermal Pools, or launch the boat from nearby Tokaanu or Kuratau ramps for a day on the water. With scenic walks, world-class trout fishing, and Taupō’s shops and eateries all within reach, Trailside Escape is perfectly placed for adventure, relaxation, and everything in between. Please note that there are other dwellings on site.
Please note there is boat parking for a boat up to 5.5 metres on a single axel trailer
