Susan and Rory have created a lovely upstairs space for guests. The view of the lake, a private deck to sit out with a glass of wine, comfortable bed, compact and useful kitchen area gave us a home base from which to explore Rotorua.
They are friendly, gracious, welcoming hosts that go out of their way to be helpful. If the weather had cooperated, we would have taken them up on the offer of kayaks to use on the lake.
Since we had a car, I was happy being a little out of town but close to the lake.
