    This was a lovely property, and right on the lake as advertised. The kids loved the mornings kayaking and rowing and fishing. A lovely outlook from the deck and very clean and tidy. Great communication from the hosts. Nice and close to activities in Rotorua, the provided info was handy. Thank you :)

    Despite some bad weather mid way through the week we had a fantastic time. Hunkered down, lit fire and played games and read during rain. The bach is located so well right on the lake and clean, well provisioned and accessible. Having the boat on the jetty makes it so easy to explore the lake and all it has to offer. Loved our time at this special place.

    A wonderful stay at this fantastic lakeside home for the last week of January 25. The hosts Jim and Sherin were lovely and easy to communicate with. The house was exceptionally clean and as described. There is everything there for your stay. We take our boat and so the jetty and the mooring were great for us. The jetty is lovely and deep to jump and swimming is a short stroll across the garden. Views across the bay are lovely. We would love to be back.Thank you for sharing your piece of paradise.

    Wonderful location. The house was very well equipped for the whole family. We had a lovely stay. It was very warm and cozy house. The beds in the sleep out are more suited for children rather than adults.
