Whare Marie - Direct Redwoods Trail Access!

Rotorua, Bay of Plenty Region, New Zealand

Summary:brbrTucked away in a peaceful, tree-surrounded setting, this warm and welcoming three-bedroom retreat offers complete privacy and a true escape from the busy world. With no immediate neighbours in sight, you’ll enjoy birdsong, fresh air, and a calm atmosphere, yet you’re just minutes from Rotorua’s world-class outdoor attractions. A standout feature is the direct access to the famous Redwoods Forest mountain biking network. A private track leads from the property down to the road, where you can join the trails from that point, making this an exceptional base for riders, walkers, and outdoor lovers.brbrbrbrThe Space:brbrInside, the home has a cosy feel with rich timber walls, soft carpet underfoot, and plenty of natural light. The comfortable lounge is perfect for relaxing after a day outdoors, whether you’re warming up in winter or keeping cool in summer thanks to the heat pump. Large windows frame the surrounding greenery, creating a peaceful indoor-outdoor connection and reinforcing the sense of privacy that makes this property so special.brbrbrbrThe fully equipped kitchen makes it easy to prepare meals at home, from a quick breakfast before hitting the trails to a relaxed dinner after a day of adventure. The cosy dining area sits beside large windows overlooking the garden, providing a tranquil setting to enjoy meals while taking in the greenery outside.brbrbrbrThe home comfortably sleeps up to five guests across three bedrooms, making it ideal for families, couples travelling together, or small groups of friends who want space to unwind without losing that warm, homely feel.brbrbrbrThis property is a rare find for mountain bikers and outdoor enthusiasts. You can ride directly from the property to access the Redwoods trail network, return home to a quiet and private setting, and securely store bikes and gear off-street. With ample room for vehicles and a boat, it also works perfectly for guests bringing extra equipment for exploring the region.brbrbrbrStep outside and you’ll find yourself immersed in nature, surrounded by mature trees and lush greenery. It’s an ideal place for morning coffee, evening drinks, or simply relaxing in peaceful surroundings after a day of adventure. Whether you’re visiting for world-class biking, outdoor activities, or a quiet escape, this private forest retreat offers the perfect base for your Rotorua stay.brbrbrbrGuest Access:brbrYou'll have access to the whole property during your stay including the single garage to store bikes and toys. Mid-way up the driveway is also a large parking area if you have your boat which is private from the road and visible from the house.brbrbrbrThe Neighborhood:brbrLocated on the edge of one of Rotorua’s most desirable outdoor areas, this property sits in a quiet, semi-rural setting surrounded by greenery and lifestyle properties. The famous Whakarewarewa Forest (Redwoods) is just moments away and offers world-class mountain biking, walking, and running trails, as well as the renowned Redwoods Treewalk. Despite the peaceful surroundings, you’re still within easy driving distance of supermarkets, cafes, restaurants, and Rotorua’s main attractions including lakes, geothermal parks, and adventure activities. This is the perfect location for guests who want the best of both worlds — a tranquil retreat with easy access to everything Rotorua has to offer.brbrbrbrGetting Around:brbrA car is recommended to make the most of your stay, as the property is set in a quiet area away from public transport routes. Most of Rotorua’s attractions, shopping areas, and dining precincts are within a short drive. For mountain bikers and outdoor enthusiasts, one of the biggest advantages of this location is the ability to access the Redwoods trail network nearby, meaning you can spend more time riding and less time driving. Taxis and ride-share services operate in the area if needed, but having your own vehicle will provide the greatest convenience.brbrbrbrOther Things to Note:brbrThis is a rural farm cottage located on a working lifestyle farm block with farm animals, horses, cattle, sheep. Usual farm hazards exist if guests are outside of the cottage garden area. We are located on the opposite side of Tarawera Road to one of the Mountain Bike Forest entrances - if accessing the forest from the Cottage, extreme caution crossing the road is important - it is a busy road with fast moving vehicles.brbrbrbrInteraction with Guests:brbrWe'll be available by phone, message or text during your stay and can pop in for personal assistance if required.

Boat Shed Bay | Private Jetty, Lake Tarawera Views

Rotorua, Bay of Plenty Region, New Zealand

Summary:brbrStep off the jetty and swim in Lake Tarawera. Tie your boat to the shared private jetty. Watch Mount Tarawera turn gold at sunset from the dining table. Boat Shed Bay is a four-bedroom lakefront home sleeping ten, with 180° views across the lake, a private jetty, gas fire, Starlink WiFi, and direct lake access. Twenty minutes from Rotorua, it's the kind of place you'll want to book again before you've even left.brbrbrbrThe Space:brbrStep through the glass doors and the view stops you — 180° of Lake Tarawera, nothing between you and the water but the deck rail. That's the first thing guests notice at Boat Shed Bay, and it doesn't get old.brbrbrbrThe home spans two levels and sleeps ten across four bedrooms. Upstairs, the master bedroom has a king bed and bedroom two has a queen bed. Downstairs, bedroom three has two sets of bunks and bedroom four has a queen bed combining to give families or two travelling couples their own separate areas. Two well-appointed bathrooms serve the house — the main bathroom upstairs with shower and toilet and a second bathroom downstairs.brbrbrbrThe kitchen, dining, and living area span the full width of the upper floor, all facing the water. The kitchen is fully equipped for group cooking with gas hob, dishwasher & coffee machine. The dining table seats eight with an uninterrupted view of the lake — and when the evening cools, the gas fire in the dining room is where everyone ends up. The lounge opens onto the deck, with a wall-mounted Smart TV running on Starlink so streaming is reliable and fast.brbrbrbrOutside, a BBQ is set up on the deck for long summer evenings. A bush-lined path leads from the property down to your own private jetty which is shared with the neighbours — swim off the end, cast a line for trout, or leave the boat tied up and use it as your base for the week. Lake Tarawera is one of the clearest in the region. The bush wraps around three sides of the property, giving Boat Shed Bay a private, tucked-away feel that is hard to find this close to Rotorua. A laundry with washer and dryer is available downstairs also.brbrbrbrGuest Access:brbrYou have exclusive use of the full property: both levels of the home, the deck, the BBQ, the bush path, and the shared private jetty. The garage is reserved for the owner's belongings and is not accessible during your stay. Self check-in is via key safe — full access details are sent before arrival.brbrbrbrThe Neighborhood:brbrLake Tarawera sits 20 minutes southeast of Rotorua and operates at a different pace entirely. The lake community is small and unhurried — neighbours leave boats at jetties, the water is calm in the morning, and evenings are genuinely quiet.brbrbrbrFrom the property: the Boat Shed Bay Boat Ramp is a short drive (100m) for launching your own vessel. Hot Water Beach is a 15-minute boat trip across the lake — guests dig their own natural thermal spa in the sand, a bucket-list experience found nowhere else in New Zealand. The Buried Village of Te Wairoa, preserved from the 1886 eruption of Mount Tarawera, is worth an hour of anyone's time and is just a short drive away.brbrbrbrBack in Rotorua, the full Bay of Plenty offering is within reach: Wai Ariki Hot Springs and Spa, the Redwoods Whakarewarewa Forest for mountain biking and walking, Polynesian Spa on the Rotorua lakefront, and the geothermal parks of Wai-O-Tapu and Waimangu. The city has plenty of cafes, restaurants, and supermarkets for stocking up before heading back to the lake.brbrbrbrGetting Around:brbrA car is essential at Boat Shed Bay. The property is approximately 20 minutes from Rotorua CBD and around 25 minutes from Rotorua Airport. Off-street parking is available on-site and trailer parking is available on the roadside grass area next to the garage. Once you're settled at the lake, most of the best local activities are on the water — bring a kayak, hire one locally, or launch from Boat Shed Bay if you're trailering a boat. The nearest shops are in Rotorua; there is no dairy or petrol station at the lake, so stock up before you arrive.brbrbrbrOther Things to Note:brbrOur jetty - each jetty is privately owned and generally shared by two properties. To find our jetty, head down the bush path and turn right when you get to the lake. Ours is the third jetty with the small ramp and long white bumpers on the side of the jetty. If you are tying your boat up there, please use the south side of the jetty (the one furtherest away from the house).brbrbrbrInteraction with Guests:brbrWe'll be available by message, phone call, or email during your stay. We can also pop around for personal assistance if needed.

Just 20 mins from Rotorua - the perfect NZ family escape.brbrbrbrThe Space:brbrPerched directly on the edge of Lake Rotoiti at Okere Falls, this beautifully presented holiday home delivers one of the most spectacular settings in the Rotorua Lakes region. From the moment you arrive through the gated entrance, the vast blue expanse of the lake stretches out behind the house - and it never gets old.brbrbrbrInside, the open-plan kitchen, dining and living area is the heart of the home. The chef's kitchen is genuinely impressive: a large marble-look island bench with four bar stools, a professional 6-burner dual-oven gas range with black rangehood and mirrored splashback, and full-height white cabinetry with every appliance you could need. Pendant lighting sets the mood, while oversized windows and sliding doors frame the lake at every turn. The dining table seats six, and the living area features a generous L-shaped sectional sofa, a log burner with guard for cooler evenings, a heat pump for year-round comfort, and a large flat-screen TV.brbrbrbrThe home has three bedrooms, all freshly appointed. The master bedroom features a king bed with a luxe navy velvet headboard and a direct lake view through its window - wake up to the water every morning. The second bedroom also has a king bed with matching navy headboard and dresser. The third bedroom is set up as a twin, with two single beds - ideal for kids or extra guests. The bathroom is a highlight: a stylish freestanding soaking bath, a large rain shower with a black-framed sliding glass door, a backlit round mirror, and a floating timber vanity. Linen and towels are provided.brbrbrbrOutside is where this property really shines. The large timber deck wraps across the rear of the house and features frameless glass balustrade so nothing interrupts the lake view. There's a Weber BBQ, a picnic-style dining table with bench seating, a market umbrella, and plenty of space to sprawl in the sun. Steps lead down to a generous lawn that slopes gently to the lake's edge, where two kayaks are ready to launch. A full-size trampoline and a children's swing set complete the picture for families. The double garage includes internal laundry facilities (washer and dryer), plus a large additional storage/workshop space.brbrbrbrGuest Access:brbrGuests have exclusive use of the entire property: the main house, double garage, full laundry, all outdoor areas including the timber deck, lawn, and garden.
