Super spot
We found this property really great for us, Very clean, easy to use, heaps of fridge/freezer space, easy as to heat, wifi might have been a bit handy as cell reception not great, awesome jetty (maybe could use some cleats/tie points on outerside for larger boats or multiple boats. Would love to stay in this property again especially in summer!!!

Easter at Tarewera
Bach was old style, but very well equipped kitchen, excellent beds, comfortable and well looked after. Fantastic view, and wonderful to be able to walk down to beach and walk way. Warf tricky to use for bigger boats. Had a lovely stay. thankyou

Time out
It was perfect, walk down to the lake for a dip so refreshing. It suited us so well we had the young men sleeping in the garage and they were warm with lots of blankets. We probably used the stove once but mainly the bbq. The fire pot belly is a hit as it was cold. Everyone loved the bach sitting out on the deck looking at the lake. Norman was very helpful and came out to show us the switch to the stove...thank you. Would definitely be back again thumbs up

Awesome lake house
Classic old lockwood right on the lake. Totally awesome location with own jetty and convenience with the lake right on your doorstep. House was totally sufficient for our family with some really useful features, such as towel rails and wardrobes in the rooms. Every room has a view. Would definitely stay again. Quite tricky maneuvering a large boat down the driveway and would recommend leaving at the jetty during entire stay.

Fantastic location
This was our 2nd stay at this Lake Tarawera holiday home. We loved the location, private jetty and of course the stunning views. We were a little disappointed though that the house wasn't all that clean when we arrived including the BBQ. Also the kichen fridge door and oven door still dont close properly.

Perfect place for a holiday.
But can’t us the water at night if someone is sleeping in the garage as the water pump is loud and wakes them.

Fantastic location and Set Up
The property was a beautiful location with amazing views. The stairs down to the water had a gate which was perfect for our little toddler.
The house had everything you needed and was well set out.
We had a couple of issues with some of the appliances not working but Norman was prompt in trying to help fix the issues.
Great stay 😁

Tawarewa delight!
The house on the lake was idyllic- very peaceful. Great grassy area in front of house for kids to play. Would have been lovely to have had access to a couple of kayaks to explore the lake- but probably more appropriate in summer with warmer weather. Would recommend this spot to anyone! Loved it.

We had a lovely time at this Bach. It was warm and clean and perfect for a variety of ages. We particularly loved the view and pot belly fire - highly recommended!

Great location and great views
This is a really lovely place to stay with the family. We had a great time and the property had everything we needed. The only challenge was, with young kids and bringing our kayaks and paddleboards, was the steep stairs down to the lake which I didn't realise. Otherwise there was a nice little beach to play on for the kids, and a playground and boat ramp close by. Thanks for having us.

Beautiful Property with amazing view
Overall a beautiful property, great jetty for the boat and a swim. Only suggestion would be some fans for the house to keep you cool during the really warm evenings and nights.

excellent location!
Wonderful property and location! The house was clean and well-equipped and we loved being so close to the lake. A gorgeous area. The only improvement I could suggest is to install a few more fly screens so windows can be left open at night in all the bedrooms and the main living area in hot weather without worrying about bites from sand flies.

Stunning location
Loved the deck and mostly lived out there. Kids weren't that happy about garage accomodation but we all absolutely loved the location and access to lake. Great place for x3 families and a Grandad.

Views to die for ❤️
Our family stayed Easter weekend. I was worried about the cold nights but batch was well equipped with more than enough warm bedding. The pot belly fire kept us cosy at night.
The views across lake Tarawera were to die for. What a magical position this place sits.
Kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed. Would definitely book again.
In summary we had a wonderful family weekend, the lake was like glass for lots of fun on the water and the days were warm. Thank you for sharing your beautiful spot.
