About this house rental
This holiday home may comfortably accommodate 14 guests, but please be advised there are to be no parties held here.
Just minutes from Lake Okareka on tranquil farmland sits The Red Barn - a modern, purpose-built home fit to host your next quiet and relaxing group getaway to this stunning Bay of Plenty holiday spot.
With plenty of parking for both cars and boats, and a secure garden shed to store equipment, The Red Barn is an ideal facility for holiday makers who want a quiet and peaceful place to return to at the end of the day's adventures.
Whether you’re here to enjoy the excellent hiking, biking, fishing and boating, or you’re supporting or participating in a local sporting event, The Red Barn has everything you need. There are even two kayaks and three mountain bikes available for you to use at your leisure!
When it’s time to retreat indoors, a huge open-plan living-dining space invites you to sit back and relax. There’s more than enough seating for everyone to be part of the conversation, or gather round the Smart TV for a quiet movie night. Pour yourself your favourite holiday drink, and take advantage of the complimentary WIFI to post your latest holiday snaps!
A well-equipped kitchen offers everything you need to self-cater your holiday, and with two fridge-freezers there is plenty of space to store all the favourites you’ve brought from home. Dine at the table big enough for everyone to share a meal together, or fire up the BBQ and dine alfresco on the shaded deck.
The young, and young at heart, in your group will enjoy sunny days on the large grassy section. Stage a backyard footy or cricket match, or simply enjoy the tranquility of having this beautifully kept expanse of land all to yourself.
At the end of the day’s adventures, three bedrooms plus mezzanine bedroom offer everyone a place to lay their head. The rooms feature a combination of queen and bunk beds, and there is even a port-a-cot available for use. There are also two sofa beds in the living area, should you be looking for a little extra space or privacy in the bedrooms.
Two full bathrooms, and two additional toilets provide ample conveniences for everyone. The wet floor shower in one of the bathrooms provides disability access if required.
The Red Barn is situated just 400m from the beach and 3km from the boat ramp, making it an ideal spot to enjoy fishing and swimming on your holiday. The forest for hiking and biking is just 4km from your home away from home, and if you’d like to check out the multitude of activities in Rotorua, it’s just a 12km drive into town.
Bring everyone together for a quiet and relaxing Rotorua getaway. The Red Barn at Lake Okareka is ready and waiting!

Fabulous location and stunning home. We were able to accommodate our team with ease. The home was peaceful and relaxing. We could relax at the lakes before heading back the the Red Barn. The covered outdoor area added a addition room and we could all eat together. Spacious well equipped kitchen, two bathrooms and laundry with direct access to back door and clothes line was fabulous. Having two fridges is such a blessing. Would be great for a family stay and team. Would definitely recommend and stay again with my family. Easy access to Rotorua and within walking distance to the lake. Don’t hesitate. You won’t be disappointed. Relax and enjoy
