We had the best week staying at this beautiful home, nestled amongst nature, right on the river. The views were spectacular from anywhere in the house, there was so much room throughout the house that it catered well for all of us including the teenagers and it was located so close to central Taupo which was awesome. Sally was awesome with all communication, nothing was a problem :) We’ll definitely be back

As a group of 8 girlfriends of many years, this beautiful home and property provided an amazing space for us to relax, catch up, prepare and enjoy meals, swim in the river, and appreciate the gorgeous surroundings. The house and its amenities made it super easy to be as a group, while also having ample space to rest and chill out. We highly recommend this property for anyone wanting a memorable group getaway.

The house was perfect for our family trip to Taupō. It was serene and beautiful inside and out. Well equipped and thoughtful touches. Plenty of space to spread out. The river is gorgeous and the best thing to wake up to in the mornings. Sally is an excellent communicator and responds quickly if needed. I would stay here again and again! Thanks so much Sally!! ♥️

This house was beautiful with lovely gardens & a spectacular view of the sunsets. The river was very close with a path along its edge. Inside it was very large & had everything we needed. Even though it was in a developed neighborhood, it felt very private & secluded. We loved it here. The owner was very responsive when we had questions too! Would definitely stay here again!

The house is gorgeous with everything you need. Over various levels it was perfect for our family reunion giving everyone space. The part of the river its on is one of the few areas you're allowed to fish in so that was very fortuitous for my fishing mad teenager. Sally was amazing when a sudden serious illness meant our group had to leave half way through our booking to get to Whangarei hospital. We were all sad to leave.
