My friends and I ended up getting to the house around 6pm and Jock had the perfect timing and arrived a few minutes after we did. He showed us around and let us know that if we had any questions to just let him know. There were black swans on the lake and he had a new loaf of bread for us in case we wanted to feed them. The home was very clean and quiet and was the perfect place to stay even just for the night. I would love it if we had more time and could enjoy laying out on the grass or take the kayak out but we had to leave early in the morning for a tour. Great host and I would definitely recommend it to anyone that is interested in staying in Rotorua!
