About this property
Rainbow Family Retreat - Two dwellings
23 Rainbow Drive is two dwellings on the one private secure site only a 100m from the lake edge via an access way off nearby Oregan Drive.
The 4 bedroom rear house is an entertainers dream with open plan living and great indoor/outdoor flow onto a large rear private and sun-filled deck. The house is well insulated and toasty warm with heat pump and panel wall heaters throughout the house. A large garage area also provides a rumpus room for the kids on wet or cold days and when they need to burn some energy! (This property sleeps 4 Adults and 4 Children. Any additional adults and children can utilise the seperate 2bdm cottage for the additional adult/children charge).
The 2 bedroom cottage on the front of the property is a cute and cozy separate home that provides options for additional family or friends that may be invited to stay - Great for family reunions or sporting groups / events.
Rainbow Point has the nearby Dairy for all your essentials and kid treats, along with the fantastic fish and chip shop for takeaway night. The Ploughmans restaurant will cater for your night out and all of these are just a short walk away. Being so close to the lake and Lions walkway may mean that a walk to town along the lake front becomes a regular venture for your morning coffee.
Plenty of off street parking for vehicles or boats and secured behind gates for that peace of mind. Special conditions: • Use of both houses will incur additional adult charges over standard 4 adult allowance for the 4bdm house as per pricing schedule. • Use of the separate 2bdm cottage is available for the additional adult/children charge as listed. • Deck not suitable for very small children
Extras: Cleaning (Required, NZ$95.00 per house); Linen (Optional, NZ$25.00 per person);

Lovely place felt very homely and relaxing lost power in front house but was on again when we returned from dinner, only downfall was the bed in front room was very uncomfortable other than that no complaints, thank you for having us
Straightforward communication and an excellent location for an extended family holiday. Short walk to the lake and very conveniently located to local dairy, takeaway bar and supermarket. Well set up kitchen and laundry. Outdoors areas good for family.
This is a lovely property - very easy walk down to the lake and to local shops - nice pub, fish and chip and dairy close by. The new Woolworths is also a 1 minute drive away. The home was spacious for 5 of us - there is ample room and a nice covered deck. Host was great in terms of easy communication and flexibility. Overall a great stay and would recommend to others
We had two families stay here and it was great! Lots of room, communication with the host was great and very accommodating to us. Sky Sport was a super bonus so we could watch the Rugby!
We all had a brilliant time, staying at rainbow retreat. There was plenty of space for everyone, the open plan style leading to the outdoor are was perfect for the family to enjoy the sun together. Great location! Would definitely book again
Great weekend, short walking distance to lake, quiet area. Good size for group or large families. Could do with another chair in lounge, new frypan and coffee machine but apart from that very suitabke and had a very enjoyable stay.
Had a great stay for the week , perfect location for peace and quiet , close to supermarket and short walk to the lake . Would definitely stay here again and bring more people as there is loads of room !
Thanks
