About this house rental
Located in a fantastic position at the northern edge of town, in a quiet beach access culdesac and close to the wharf for hours of water fun for the kids we present our beloved log cabin for you to enjoy as we do.
Being cosy and comfortable, the cabin comprises of a master bedroom with Queen bed, a guest room with two singles, single fold up bed also available for use, we also boast a caravan out the back containing a single bed. There is of course a T.V and DVD incase you forgot to bring a book.
The section is flat of reasonable size and the culdesac provides a great circuit for kids to ride their bikes and play ball around the tree planted centre island. There is a hot outdoor shower for sandy bodies and gas bbq for a well earned kiwi cookup.
Special conditions:
Pets outside only
NOTE: Under Kiwi bach tradition you are expected to: Clean the house and do the dishes before you leave; Bring your own linen (towels/sheets/tea towels);

property is set in an amazing area, walking distance to town, wharf and beach. Had everything we needed for a great holiday. A lawn big enough to play games on. Great communication with property owner. Will stay again.

Maybe it was not our priority at the time of booking (we had a wedding to attend), but we think this place is undersold on the listing. It is CLOSE to the beach and jetty - a perfect location right near the Whangamata town centre and anything that matters. Everything worked, no endless instructions and dos and don'ts. We would happily stay at this property again and who wouldn't like to try a log cabin experience!

great spot but very dirty. TV did not work and had no response all weekend from owners to try and rectify. Did not use sove as so dirty, we even cleand the top and under elements just so we did not have to look at it. We took photos as soon as we got there to show hoe bad. Also photos to show it was way cleaner when we left. Two good bedrooms but third with single bed was basically a bed in a hallway. Very disappointed when other family paid the same, in a very nice are also but beautiful home that was spotless and well appointed. Both pet friendly.
