Stayed Nov 19, 2025We had a wonderful stay! The house is so comfortable and had everything we could want. The garden makes it feel very private. I loved how close we were to the Redwood Forest trails. Highly recommend!

Stayed Oct 16, 2025This is by far one of my all time favorite VRBO accommodations! Such a beautiful home with everything you need to feel right at home. The location is perfect to access all of the surrounding activities and to the downtown area. Kristin was a wonderful host. I’d highly recommend a stay here!

Stayed Nov 30, 2024Perfect getaway location with easy access to all that Rotorua has to offer. Wake to the sound of birds chirping in the morning / evening. Best if one has personal vehicle to get to activities but Uber is also an option. Wonderful hosts. Met my every expectation and that of my adult family.

Stayed Oct 25, 2024Great place for a break, has everything you need ++. It was cosy but large enough for us to spread out and the outdoor area was perfect for socialising at the end of a busy day. Easy access to the Redwoods for walks and biking. Safe and secure storage for bikes. We will be back! Thanks

Stayed Oct 2, 2024We had such a lovely stay! It was the perfect spot for our family of 5. The home was lovely and quiet (great for our day napper 2 yr old) and the location was fantastic for quick trips to the red woods and the kids loved the spa pool. Unfortunately the weather wasn't great, so we couldn't use the lovely backyard outdoor area to its full advantage. Kristin was amazing to deal with, she was always quick to get back to me with any questions I had and is super, super friendly. A big Thanks!
