I had a wonderful time time staying at the Lakefront Lodge. The location is fantastic, right on the lake! And very close to town with all the restaurants and shopping. Dion was a great host, wonderful hospitality, made sure I had everything I need. This place offers the rare combination of hospitality and flexibility that comes from a warm host and the privacy that comes with staying at a hotel. It was really great, I’ll definitely be staying here again when I go back to Lake Taupo.
