Liz is a great host. She helped us park and had our key for us when we arrived! She helped us plan our day offering several suggestions of things to do and see. Gave us dinner and breakfast recommendations. Unit is beautiful with everything you might need for your stay. Property is below her home in a quiet residential area. Beautiful yard. Taupo is beautiful. We would have been very happy having more days there. Rented bike at Torpedo 7 sports shop in town and enjoyed a very nice ride along the lake shoreline. Enjoyed nice lunch at the Two Mile Bay Sailing Club bar/restaurant literally right on/over the lake.
