Thank you for your review! We're so glad the house worked well for your family get-together. It's great to hear you enjoyed the space and the convenient location. We’d love to welcome you back anytime!
House was nice and comfy, but does need some maintenance outside. Windows need a clean, dirty sills and maybe a good dusting inside as a little musty but might be the old curtains need replacing. Otherwise we had a nice relaxing and comfortable stay. Good location a bit of a longer walk than we wanted.
Our stay was perfect. Great space to chill out like being at home. Nice private areas inside and out. Had everything we could have needed.I Would stay again.

The kitchen was away from the dining and there was a railing for my wife to use to go from the kitchen and lounge and bedrooms. We also loved the door separating the lounge and kitchen from the bedrooms We loved your lemon and mandarin trees.It was Great being close to the center of Taupo. Thank you

Awesome little house, Very Central and very cosy, very quiet and nicely furnished, perfect place for a getaway.
Since I have found this place I don't look any further when staying in Taupo. As the title says a lovely home when away from home.

Thank you, Dean.
We are glad you enjoyed your stay and hope to host you again soon.
Came to Taupo for the Berm Buster motorcycle event over 2 days, this was an awesome place to stay, especially the location, and the fact it had a double garage to store the bikes in was a winner for sure. Highly recommend.
