Our family of three had a wonderful stay with Yvonne and Gary. Their home was nice and cozy during the chilly nights. We enjoyed a varied and filling breakfast every day--Yvonne is a great cook! They were very knowledgeable about all the nearby attractions and great storytellers. Their home is a quick ten minute drive from downtown Taupo and is spotlessy clean. The bathroom setup was great, toilet separate from shower/bath, lovely and plentiful toiletries, and the towel warmer was terrific to ward off the winter chill. Thank you for your extra care for and attention to our son, he loved playing with N and your great toy selection! It was wonderful to spend quality time together on our last night in Taupo.
