What a wonderful stay we had at the Riverside cottage. It was the most wonderfully peaceful spot to arrive after over 24hrs of travel. Joanne was super friendly and we feltright at home. The cottage is just as described: One bedroom (firm bed), bath (nice hot shower), kitchen (full size fridge and freezer),and the MOSTimmaculately cared for garden right on a stream with views of the nearby hills. Simply stunning. It was a perfect location for us to tour around Rotorua and we enjoyed the most picturesque sunrise walk along the lake on a trail just a few min walk from the cottage. We absolutely would come again and highly recommend Joanne's place for any future travelers!
