Great location, friendly host
We stayed three nights with friends as we were all competing in an event nearby. Really convenient location. Quiet spot, friendly host, appreciated the fresh bread and local produce from the fruit trees! For colder nights, a heater will be appreciated. Nice linen, and everything else we needed was provided. Its good to get ‘off the grid’ and this was an ideal quiet spot.

Beautiful location, awesome hosts
Stunning location with tonnes of privacy. Natural hot springs 15mins drive, 30mins from town centre - perfect spot with lots to do. Thank you to our host Emma - very approachable & easy to contact, able to provide lots of information about the area and must-see spots. Will be back again to explore more of the area 😁

Perfect stop on the way to Rotorua from Taupo
Emma has a really nice, clean and tidy place. And she was available for our late check in. Nothing was a problem for her and communication was great. Ideal if you are heading north to Rotorua, need a good, simple place to stay and would rather stay somewhere in the country. Would definitely come back again.

Wonderful spot to explore
The cabin was really spacious and clean, bed super comfortable. Hosts were lovely and really helpful. Cabin is located on their property however is private. This was a great spot to explore the lakes, rivers and thermal spots around the district. Check out the local tavern while you are there. Recommend

Cute batch in the middle of nowhere
We had a lovely stay at this batch in Lake Rerewhakaaitu. I believe we were the first guests to stay there, as its a newly listed property. We were 2 adults, 1 child. The property was as per the pictures. It was clean and spacious. Emma talked about a few things that she is looking to add to the place which will make a difference. Emma was very flexible around our check in and out time which was very much appreciated. A really really nice touch from Emma included a loaf of freshly baked bread left at our door in the middle of our stay. It was delicious! My 6 year old wouldn't sleep on the camp stretcher but your child may be more easy going :) If you want a quiet getaway or have stuff on in the area, highly recommended.
