Excellent property which we thoroughly enjoyed. Lots of kitchen facilities making it very easy to eat meals for the big family gatherings. Entertainment for the kids with the trampoline and spa (in winter) and close proximity to the shops and the lake. Highly recommend!

I was very pleased that the owners had worked extremely hard to overcome renovation delays and presented the property in the best working order possible. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would reccommend this property to anyone. All our initial queries were answered and made our stay comfortable. Thank you Tessa.

Post lockdown Family get together

This house was the perfect location for our family to come together from Auckland and Wellington. It was very cozy on a cold winter weekend. The large dining table was perfect for large family dinners. The garden and outdoor areas are also lovely, especially the sunny outdoor dining area. I would definitely recommend this to any large family group.

Fabulous Spacious & Private

We loved our stay! Large private home, perfect for an extended family/group, with lots of different spaces for relaxing. Great outside entertainment area, good central heating, and everything you need to cater for a group. Fully fenced so perfect for the doggos. Good off street parking. Highly recommend. Would love to return again.

Wedding Party Accomodation

Tessa's home was the most PERFECT location for myself and my bridal party to stay before and after my wedding. She was so lovely, responsive and her house was warm, welcoming and beautifully decorated. And the garden is stunning. I couldn't recommend this property enough. Emily x

Wonderful property!

Recently spent a long weekend with extended family (7 adults/2 kids) in Taupo, and am so grateful we picked this house. Wonderfully set up and close to all city centre attractions. Tessa (host) was also great with communications, and always answered any queries immediately. Thank you Tessa - your home is truly wonderful and exceeded our expectations. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a place where family can be together while also having space to themselves :)
