Response from VrboOwner on 2 August 2022
Thanks for the review. Unfortunately the fire place is not meant for burning rubbish and plastics. That`s why you had problems with the fire box because you were trying to burn your excess rubbish which caused a terrible smoke in the house. In future if you rent a holiday home and you not not sure about anything its best to ask. We also have a heat pump in the house so if you are not familiar with the fire the heat pump heats the house efficient because we have the heat transfer to the whole house

Big spacious house in a great location

We had a great time in Wharewaka. The location's close to Taupo central but also convenient to the lake. While it's not lakeside, it has a foot and cycle path with no major roads to cross. We had a toddler on a bike and he was fine on the walk down. Overall, I highly recommend the place ... particularly if you have large numbers in your group!
