Our stay was very good and we had everything we needed - check-in was easy and the house had all the necessities. Just a a couple things to note: there are technically two bathrooms but one is somewhat of a converted laundry room, so small and doesn't have a tub or shower (meaning just one shower for the house overall). Also, the house does have a lake view, but it is mostly obstructed by another house directly between the listing and the lake - the view from part of the deck is lovely, but not that you will not have a full-on lake view. We didn't make it out to use the kayaks, but it would be a short and easy walk to get them down to the lake! Last, the house was very quiet on a quiet street, so easy for sleeping and such. But, it is a 10-15 minute drive from Rotorua proper and the closest food/restaurant option we saw was a McDonald's about a 15 minute walk away - so, wouldn't recommend unless you have a vehicle! Parking was very easy, and there is additional street parking.
