The unit was newly renovated and clean. It is about 15 mins out of Rotorua, which suited us just fine as we are used to being out in the quiet countryside. Hell's gates is nearby which is a bonus also. However some more information about the property would have been nice, we hadn't googled Lakes Ranch so were under the impression that we were arriving at a cute farm stay with hot tub near the cabin. Which turned out to be a run down christian camp. The cabins are in a blackout spot for reception, but there is a little bit outside. Unfortunately we were not made aware that work is currently being done on the hot pool until we had booked which is obviously one of the reasons we had chosen this airbnb. We didn't see the hot pool on our stay, I assume it was near the swimming pool which was in a dodgy looking half finished concrete compound that I was not brave enough to go near. Overall the stay was ok, the cabins are nicely done and have everything you need.
