Loved the sunset views from the deck! The place is an ideal-rest stop or introduction to Taupo. It’s a 15min leisurely walk along the lake path to the popular 2 Mile Bay Sailing Club. Or stop at one of at least three hotel restaurants/bars within 2mins of the house. Angela was great to deal with, and although we didn’t need to contact her during our stay, she made herself available throughout. Bring your togs…the lakeshore is just across the road.
