We stayed 1 night, 4 people 1 child, and was amazing when we arrived. There is a shop on site where you can buy pretty much anything. Yes, the rooms are small, but honestly, it wasn't a problem at all for us. Beds are so comfortable and loved the extra bedding available. Yes, it's about 15 mins from taupo City, but it wasn't a problem for us at all, so we definitely would come back. The staff were great . Also loved all the lights in the carpark at night very pretty 😍

The family dogs, were super cute and friendly and really added to the charm of the house. Breakfast was fantastic each morning with a variety of options including hot and cold (cereal and fruit etc). Special shout to Peter for showing us around and letting us meet the deer on the property which was a great experience.
