Easy access into the accommodation. Great setup. Hosts live attached to the accommodation. Didnt see them or hear them and i hope likewise from us. River view magical. And you can do a walk along it from the back door.

The accomodation was as described, comfortable lounge and bed, clean bathroom. Beautiful views from the accomodation and can walk down closer to the river from the property. Owners had the heat pump on for our arrival so nice and warm. Quiet and relaxing yet only minutes into town.

The view from the living area was spectacular, looking at the Waikato River. The accommodation was self contained with a roomy entry, leading into the large bedroom and separate bathroom. The living, kitchen/dining area was large, homely and clean. The area was secluded and quiet. Thank you to Sandra and Lance

This home was perfect for our attendance at a 3-day conference, being just a few minutes' drive from the center of Taupo but feeling miles away from the bustle, with beautiful river views and access to walking trails. The home is comfortable, presented well, and felt very clean. Hosts very welcoming and communication easy.

We loved our stay here. Everything we needed for a few nights. The property was clean, tidy, well stocked and comfortable. Incredible location, the river just down the hill and the lake a few minutes drive away. It adjoins the owners home and another cottage but youd never know, it was very well soundproofed. Nice quiet neighbourhood but close to everything we needed. Lance and Sandy are absolutely lovely, so kind and helpful, wonderful hosts. We can't wait to come back!

A pleasant property & location about 5 minutes drive from Taupo center. Good size of lounge, bedroom and bathroom. Modern and nicely equipped. Cooking facilities were limited to a small oven/grill and microwave, but sufficient to make a cooked breakfast. If we return to Taupo we would stay here again.

Property is warm and comfortable but needed a decent table and chairs as they were a bit flimsy. Also parking is a long walk to the door, which isn’t ideal for my elderly mother (not suitable for disabled) Also unfortunately, next door there was a baby crying throughout the night, which suggest thin walls! Also suggest you bring your own towels

Great little cottage only a few minutes from the centre of town and with postcard views out over Waikato river. The view really is as good as the photos in the listing! And a very short walk from your back door down to the river itself. A great little space for our stay, just what we were after.

Beautifully appointed unit, very clean and homely. Warm with heat pump and plush carpet. Basic cooking facilities but more than enough for a weekend. Spacious living area, lovely deck (for the summer) and amazing view of the river. Hosts very approachable and helpful. We would highly recommend.

On arrival, we were very impressed with the cleanliness of the unit. The unit was very modern with a beautifully dressed comfy bed. The view from the deck was stunning. Easy access for walking to Spa Park and my teen loved the MTB trails nearby. We will definitely be back, great value for money. Thank you 😊

The cottage was lovely and clean and the views were amazing which made for a very enjoyable stay. Would certainly look at this property again in going back to Taupo. As an added bonus the fresh honey delivered by a neighbour was gorgeous.
