This place is a real gem! Amanda and James were lovely hosts as was their little fluffball Charlie Bear - very friendly pup who stopped by for a short hello. The room and upstairs patio had beautiful views of Lake Taupo. The room was very comfy and modern with a nice breakfast, fridge, and coffee set up. Incredibly thoughtful, Amanda provided us champagne and a thoughtful note as my husband and I were traveling for our honeymoon. Top notch hosts!!!
