Kara's place was perfect as a base to explore the area. We only stayed for a few nights, but we would have happily stayed for longer. It's exactly as it looks in the pictures. The location is also great. It's a little bit out of Turangi, so it's nice and quiet, but close enough to town that it's only a few minutes away by car.
Communication was fantastic. Kara provided such clear check-in instructions, house rules and also some really useful local tips, which we really appreciated.
I'd definitely recommend this as a place to stay.
