About this house rental
Lakeside getaway at picturesque Lake Okareka
This unique property offers small and large groups the opportunity to get away from it all and relax and enjoy the view of beautiful Lake Okareka. This property also features on my own 2 Lakes site if your preference is to deal directly and with no fees.
This recently renovated family holiday home is lovingly decorated and reflects the Dutch heritage of the owners of the property while also offering a brand new kitchen and two full modern bathrooms.
The front porch and lawn is the perfect place to relax during the day, gaze out at the water, read books and sunbathe. The private courtyard out the back has a bbq and outdoor seating area, and is great for drinks and dining in the evening.
Sleeps up to 10 people, this property offers WiFi (Fibre), heat pump, TV, as well as USB charging points in all bedrooms.
Lake Okareka’s public boat ramp is just metres away and also has a large extended jetty for swimming and launching boats. This lake is very popular for boating, water skiing, kayaking and sailing, and offers great trout fishing opportunities year round.
The Lake Okareka Reserve and Boardwalk is just a 10 minute walk (or 2 minute drive) with spectacular views of the lake and surrounding area, as well as a bird watching paradise.
The property is an excellent home base for those visiting Rotorua for hiking, mountain biking, fishing and boating, with plenty of secure off-street parking.
It’s a 3-minute drive to Lake Tikitapu (Blue Lake) which offers excellent swimming, a playground and waterskiing, and a 10 minute drive to Lake Tarawera.
Only a 15 - 20 minute drive from central Rotorua attractions, including the geothermal mud pools, Redwoods - Whakarewarewa Forest biking trails and walks, Polynesian Spa and Skyline Luge.
We hope you enjoy your peaceful break at Vogelenzang - Lake Okareka.

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Great location and the new kitchen, bathrooms etc were excellent. Can see that it is a well loved family location, we hope to return again next year. The boats in storage looked superb, used to race a Paper Tiger years ago, next year will be bring paddleboards down and model yachts.
Great location for mountain biking and exploring the area. Thank you.

Great homely holiday house with everything you could need. Great amenities and beautiful location right across from the lake. The only warning i would give parents with young ones is becareful of the glass doors. We had 3 little ones run straight in to them and hurt themselves because there is no safety stickers on them and they are super clear. I'd recommend this place for a nice family getaway.

Really nice house in a great location across from pretty one lake and very close to others, also convenient to town and entertainment.

A charming, accommodating place to stay - it had everything we needed for a large group. Incredibly close to the lake, and a short trip into Rotorua. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here.

One room, two centuries
Can't fault the location, but the house was strange. Partially renovated but the living/dining was still original and not in a good way. It was very dark and not very welcoming. Would probably stay again though just because of the location.

Great place
This house has the most amazing view and if you want to get away for some R & R, it's the perfect spot. The kitchen and two bathrooms are designed for a large group and work very well. Our only difficulty was not having a phone number to ring while we were there. The air conditioner was difficult to work and it would have helped to be able to ask someone about it.

Wonderful stay.
We had a great stay. The location is beautiful, so quiet and you basically have the whole lake to yourself.
The house feels so homely and with the configuration of the beds it’s really comfortable for families.
Thanks for having us

The perfect place for rest and relaxation with beautiful views of the lake.
Enjoyed a lovely and relaxing stay at the Lake Okareka lake house. Clean, cosy and beautiful views of the lake. Was great to be able to walk the kayak across the road and go fishing in the morning - felt like we had the place to ourselves. The perfect holiday away from the city.

Great Spot
We all enjoyed our stay at this bach, across the road from the lake for going out with the boat. The cleaning lady was very accommodating when we called her to see if we could come in a bit earlier and leave later. Unfortunately there was no Internet.

Established family bach with upgrade progressing
Great new kitchen and bathrooms. Showing its age elsewhere. We were startled to discover the linen add-on after booking, but it is mentioned. Read carefully and be sure of your numbers, as the property manager is not flexible except upwards.

This was great. Would love to come again. Weather was wet but kids (& parents) enjoyed biking, kayaking, and watching the "Duck Tours" vehicles drive into the lake. So scenic and peaceful. Thank you
