Very spacious house for a family or a small group of friends. We loved the quiet neighborhood with excellent access to the lake as well as lots of nice walks/runs. Magnificent view of the lake which we were glued to during our late winter visit- huge windows in a lovely warm living area makes for a cozy place to relax. Bedrooms and bathrooms were spotless and comfortable with nice linens included. Kitchen was large and mostly well equipped for simple meals. Lots of stairs between the entry way, living area and bedrooms which could be tricky for little kids and those with mobility issues. A bit pricey compared to other Taupō properties but still a very nice home in a pretty location just outside of town. Would return.
